20 Times Serena Williams Defined 'Strong Is Beautiful'
As the tennis champ defends her Wimbledon title, we look back at some of her most stunning moments off the court
No one does it like Serena Williams.
On Saturday, the tennis star will be fighting for what could be her seventh Wimbledon win after an emotional round of matches at the tournament, but her off-the-court antics are just as stunning as her athletic prowess.
As she attempts to defend her title across the pond, feast your eyes on the champ’s most gorgeously fierce moments.
When she slayed alongside Beyonc in the “Sorry” video
When she embodied the meaning of “statuesque”
When she rocked this angle because she felt like it
When she covered Sports Illustrated as its sportsperson of the year
When she showed off her Wimbledon dress
When she performed aerial acrobatics at the Williams Invitational
When she competed with a sunset for most beautiful – and won
When she proved leotards aren’t just for ballerinas
When she said she could play in heels and proved it
When she crashed a wedding and her bathing suit seemed entirely appropriate for the occasion
When she did this
When she made us all go out and buy body chains
When she posed with her Wimbledon trophy in a goddess-like ball gown
When she made her Vogue shoot wholly original
And then casually read her cover issue by the pool
When her abs looked like this
When we couldn’t look away from her itty bitty shorts.
When she ran a triathlon because training to be a tennis champion wasn’t enough
When she was mistaken for an angel at the Vanity Fair Oscar party
When she attended the premiere of her documentary, shining like a literal star
Williams will take on Germany’s Angelique Kerber in Saturday’s Wimbledon final.
