The rumors about Serena Williams and her French coach Patrick Mouratoglou surfaced once again even as the tennis ace is reported to be dating Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.
The tennis ace also didn't help quell the rumors when she posted on Instagram a photo of her sitting on the racket while her coach is touching her arm in the middle of training for the Australian Open.
Williams captioned the image, "It must be his touch. #dynamicduo @patrickmouratoglou."
One fan couldn't help notice the chemistry between Serena Williams and rumored boyfriend Patrick Mouratoglou as he said, "Serena i think Patrick is the real man for I wish you guys the best,in life there difficult times."
Williams started working with Mouratoglou about four years ago when she got knocked out by unheralded Virginie Razzano in the first round at the French Open.
The world's no. 1 was also all praises for her French coach as she told ESPN, "Clearly, working with Patrick has helped me a lot and helped me to have different goals, change different elements in my game, ameliorate them, and also just overall be a better competitor on every single surface and in every single match that I play."
But the two could not escape the rumors as various tabloids reported that Patrick Mouratoglou was more than a coach but more like a boyfriend for Serena Williams, as photos such as these surfaced on the Internet.
Serena Williams also has a good relationship with one of the daughters of rumored boyfriend Patrick Mouratoglou as can be gleaned on the Facebook post of the tennis coach.
The image shows Patrick Mouratoglou's daughter, Juliette, training with Serena Williams on conditioning. He wrote, "@serenawilliams found a new conditioning coach @juliettemouratoglou." The post was retweeted by the tennis ace who replied, "Lol @pmouratoglou your daughter is too cute," along with two heart emojis.
To their credit, Serena Williams and alleged boyfriend Patrick Mouratoglou have not dignified the rumors with a reply.
