Why Serena Williams had to hire a tennis coach for her 4-year old daughter

Serena Williams revealed during a recent interview with Ellen DeGeneres that she is excited for her 4-year-old daughter Olympia to learn how to play tennis, however she confessed that she doesn’t have “the patience to teach tennis,” so she decided to hire a tennis coach.“I don’t really like to play with people who don’t know how to play tennis well. It drives me nuts,” the acclaimed tennis star confessed, explaining that her daughter’s ambition is “playing princess games.” “You enrolled her in tennis classes with a coach but you did not tell the coach that you were the mother?” the TV host asked Serena, as she is known for being one of the most talented tennis players in the world.“I don’t push her because I’m like, she’s four.

Review: Hulu’s ‘Crush’ Is A Sweet But Clunky Coming-Of-Age Movie

Crush (★★★☆☆). In one pivotal scene between two amorous teens, a rainbow, distinct though far in the distance, arcs across the horizon, a bellwether of good fortune for young lovers.Just as fortunately, director Sammi Cohen, and screenwriters Kirsten King and Casey Rackham, seek to subvert their movie’s candy-coated innocence with a keen edge of tart and bawdy humor that keeps the ship from sinking into cheesy oblivion.That contrast bears out in the characters, too, with never-been-kissed high school junior Paige, played by Rowan Blanchard, often embarrassed by her oversharing, sex-positive mom Angie, played by Megan Mullally, a comic actress who, of course, knows her way around, over, and through a double entendre.Angie’s a “cool mom” to the extreme, so fully supportive of lesbian daughter Paige that she gifts her packs of glow-in-the-dark dental dams.
