American tennis legend Serena Williams’ daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., is a millionaire, and she’s not even ten years old. One of the best tennis players of all time, Williams’ legacy in women’s tennis remains unparalleled. However, the 23-grand slam winner’s daughter is enjoying the fruits of her mother’s efforts in the best way possible.
Back in September 2017, Serena Williams and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, who’s the co-founder of Reddit, gave birth to their daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. The power couple often shares pictures of themselves enjoying their lives with their daughter. However, in 2023, Alexis Ohanian shared a post on Instagram announcing that his daughter has now become the youngest owner of two professional sports teams in the world.
Ohanian shared that his daughter now owns Angel City FC, a women’s soccer team, and LA Golf Club. The Reddit co-founder also stated that Olympia’s future sibling, Adira River (who was born a few months after the announcement), will become the co-owner of Angel City FC and LA Golf Club. Olympia and Adira River are currently six and one, respectively, and both of them have become millionaires.
While LA Golf Club’s net worth is currently unavailable, it is reported that Angel City FC’s current valuation is estimated to be around $180 million. Moreover, Angel City FC’s valuation has also led to a massive surge in the National Women’s Soccer League’s (NWSL) valuation. Besides Olympia and Adira River, Angel City is also co-owned by Eva Longoria, Natalie Portman, and Christina Aguilera, while LA Golf Club is co-owned by Serena‘s sister, Venus.
