The Duchess of Cambridge ventured to the world’s most famous tennis tournament on Thursday to see her friend Serena Williams compete in the second round of Wimbledon.

The Duchess and the Grand Slam champion have been friends for almost a decade, dating back to 2010 when they met at another sporting event — the Super Bowl.

Since then, they have remained close, with Serena even throwing a baby shower for Meghan earlier this year.

The new mom continued her tradition of attending Wimbledon, having done so in 2016 and last year with sister-in-law Kate Middleton.

Kate attended this year’s tournament on Monday to watch Serena play in the first round, but Meghan was not alone in the stands as she had close friends, Lindsay Roth and Genevieve Hillis, beside her.

It is believed that all three of Meghan’s friends will be present when she and Prince Harry christen baby Archie over the weekend.

The tennis superstar gave birth to her first child, a little girl, in September 2017. Since then she has competed in several grand slam tournaments, but always makes time to ensure she teaches little Olympia what is important.

“I want to teach her that it’s okay to make the first move, it’s okay to ask and to say, ‘Listen, I want a chance at being in this play. Like put me in. Or just give me this first opportunity,’” Serena said on Good Morning America.

The 1-year-old has a pretty good role model as Serena revealed how she will be teaching from her own experience.

““I literally made the first move,” the 37-year-old said in reference to signing herself up for her first ever tennis tournament at the age of 14. “My dad said I was too young and I was so small and I wasn’t ready but I knew I was ready and I made that first move and I want my daughter to be able to do the same thing. We’re taught as a society that we have to wait and be second but that’s not true, we can be first. I love being first. I only like being first.”

Olympia is in good hands.

This marks her first competition since welcoming her baby girl, Alexis Olympia, in September.  And prior to her daughter’s arrival, Williams won her 23^rd Grand Slam title at the 2017 Australian Open in January. She was eight weeks pregnant at the time.

“I am delighted to be returning to the court in Abu Dhabi for the first time since the birth of my daughter in September,” the 36-year-old tennis champ told ESPN in a statement on Sunday. “The Mubadala World Tennis Championship has long marked the beginning of the men’s global tennis season and I am excited and honored to be making my comeback as part of the first women to participate in the event.”

Williams’ rep said in April that the tennis pro would take maternity leave and take time off until 2018. In addition to becoming a mother, she also wed Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in November.

According to ESPN, the Mubadala World Tennis Championship is set to be part of Williams’ preparation to defend her Australian Open title.

Earlier this month, Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley told reporters that Williams was “very likely” to play in the first Grand Slam of 2018, which starts Jan. 15.

“She’s got her visa, she’s entered, she’s practicing and she’s probably just got to find a bit more space for a bigger entourage,” he said, according to E!.
