TENNIS NEWS - Serena Williams hit the court publicly for the first time since the birth of her daughter over the weekend, raising awareness for a cause near and dear to her and her family.
Alongside Venus, the sisters hosted “A Family Affair” event at the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center (SETLC) in Washington, D.C.
Presented by Oath, the event brought tennis and awareness of violence to the D.C. metro area, raising money for the Yetunde Price Resource Center, which is based in Compton.
The sisters also participated in a panel, hosted by ESPN's Jemele Hill, to discuss the direct impact of violence on their family.
The oldest sister of Serena and Venus, Yetunde Price, was killed by a drive-by shooting on Sept. 14, 2003, in Compton, Calif.
