Serena Williams recently shared pictures from her farm and highlighted her journey from humble beginnings in Compton. Williams was born in Compton, California, where she began her tennis career. She and her sister Venus Williams practiced on public courts in Compton during the start of their careers.
Williams and her husband Alexis Ohanian proudly own a sprawling farm in Florida. The couple’s farm houses many animals, such as horses, chickens, and a steer, and grows fruits and vegetables. It also has a tennis court attached to it.
Recently, the American shared some pictures from her farm with some horses. In the picture, she was seen wearing a black dress and complementary shoes. Williams also shed light on her humble beginning, mentioning how far she has come from ‘Compton to the country’.
“…from Compton to Country,” Williams wrote.
In February 2023, Williams was joined by her husband Alexis Ohanian as the couple showed off their farm during an interview with CBS Mornings. They took host Gayle King on a tour across their farm, showing her the livestock they domesticate and the fruits and vegetables they grow.
