‘Pinkies up’: Serena Williams enjoys a traditionally British afternoon tea with her daughter Olympia, 4, as they take in the sights of London… following her devastating Wimbledon loss

She crashed out of Wimbledon last week during her first match of the championships.

But Serena Williams is still enjoying the sights of London while the tennis event continues, as she headed out for an afternoon tea with her daughter Olympia Ohanian in the capital.

Sharing snaps with her Instagram followers on Saturday, the mother-daughter duo appeared picture-perfect as they posed for a sweet snap – captioning ‘Pinkies up’.

Olympia beamed for the camera in a floaty pink dress for the picture, holding onto a takeaway box from the high tea.

While Serena sat beside her daughter, who she shares with husband Alexis Ohanian, in a striped maxi-dress with a sleeveless design and thigh-grazing slit.

She added a pair of chunky black sandals to her ensemble, while her dark locks were left to fall freely for the outing.

Serena is making the most of her time in the UK alongside her family, as the Wimbledon championships draw to a close this weekend.

And returning to the court after a year off, she didn’t quite get the comeback she was hoping for – crashing out during her first match.

After being beat by 24-year-old Harmony Tan during the match, Serena was non-committal about her future in Tennis when asked, explaining: ‘That’s a question I can’t answer.

Loving it: Serena explained that her daughter ‘loves’ afternoon tea and ‘cheering for mama’ in the post’s caption

‘I’m just playing for right now and seeing how I feel, take it from there. Who knows where I will pop? There’s definitely lots of motivation to play better and at home (the US Open).

‘Physically I did pretty good. The last couple of points I was really suffering. If you are playing week in week out there’s a bit more match toughness’.

Wimbledon will draw to a close on Sunday 10 July with the Men’s Singles Final.
