Serena Williams, winner of an Open Era-record 23 Grand Slam singles titles, unveiled the joys and pains of her private life in an HBO documentary that debuted yesterday.
In the five-part series, the former WTA world number one recounts her victory in last year's Australian Open, complications surrounding the birth of her eight-month-old daughter Olympia, and her wedding to Alexis Ohanian last November.
"It's about ups and downs," Williams said in an HBO interview.
Williams won the Australian Open while pregnant and returned in February alongside her sister Venus in a US Fed Cup first-round tie. She lost to Venus in the third round at Indian Wells and to Japan's Naomi Osaka at Miami in her WTA returns.
