Serena Williams recently attended Simone Biles-led Gold Over America Tour at the Kia Center in Florida with her husband, Alexis Ohanian, and their daughter, Olympia. Ohanian later shared photos from the event, thanking Biles for making Olympia’s day special.
Williams has frequently lauded Biles, and the gymnast has reciprocated. One instance occurred during the 2024 US Open when Biles was asked whom she would choose as her doubles tennis partner. The 27-year-old named Serena Williams, calling her a ‘GOAT’. Williams also expressed her desire to be Biles’s partner.
Biles is currently performing on the Gold Over America Tour, joined by notable names such as Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles, Hezly Rivera, Paul Juda, Brody Malone, and others. The tour’s 18th stop was held at the Kia Center in Orlando, Florida, where Williams, Ohanian, and Olympia were also present.
After the event, the couple posed for a group photograph with Biles and her team, which Biles shared on her Instagram story, calling Williams a “GOAT” in the captions. Additionally, Olympia beamed as she posed with Biles and Chiles at the event. Ohanian later shared glimpses of the occasion on Instagram.
“I had to take S & Jr to see @Simone_Biles’ Gold Over America Tour. Packed house. Awesome night. Don’t miss it if they’re coming to your town. 🥇🥇🥇 And thank you Simone and @ChilesJordan for absolutely making Olympia’s MONTH,” Ohanian wrote.
Ohanian humorously mentioned trying to make a pancake resemble Olympia in her new leotard but struggled with photorealism and a runny batter.
“I bought all the merch I could and even tried making this morning pancake look like Olympia in one of her new leotards – sorry babygirl, photorealism is hard and the batter was too runny today,” he added.
The Gold Over America Tour took place a few months after Team USA’s impressive performance in gymnastics at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where they secured 10 medals. Simone Biles notably won three gold medals and one silver at the event.
