“I don’t push her because I’m like, she’s four. She’s alright. I’ve seen four-year-olds that might take her out,” Serena shared, adding ”I was like, I can’t. I don’t have the patience for this. So I signed her up for a private teacher.“

She also explained that she “didn’t wanna tell” the private coach about who she was, as she preferred to keep her tennis background under wraps. However, the private teacher was quick to discover it was her after the athlete posted about the lessons on her Instagram account.
