Pregnant Serena hits the gym 

Serena Williams doesn’t give up.

The 23-time Grand Slam winner is going through her 35th week of pregnancy, but is still hitting the gym as you can see from the two photos published on her Snapchat account at the weekend.

Serena hopes to come back at the 2018 Australian Open where she wants to defend her title earned earlier this year in the final over her sister Venus.

Serena herself spoke about her recent activities in the last weeks.

She told TennisSmash: “I definitely did a lot more bike work, usually I do running.

“So I focused on doing more bike. A ton of walking, actually. I would still hit the ball – I still do hit the ball every now and again so I don’t lose my touch.

I’m taking it one day at a time.

“It’s not going to be as fast as I want it to be. It depends on what happens when you give birth – who knows? Anything can happen and it depends how you recover from that. After that we’ll see what happens.”
