Kardashian responded to the 23-time Grand Slam champion, 42, in theGQvideo, clarifying that in the post she wasn’t playing tennis. She was just “walking” on the court.
“First of all, I was walking to the other side. Is there a special way you have to hold the racquet just to walk from one side to the other side?” Kardashian said. “I was also out of bounds at that point.”
The model then called upon her friend to supply her with lessons. “But I’m waiting, I would love lessons from the G.O.A.T.,” Kardashian said.
In Kardashian’s original series ofphotos, she seemed to be focused solely on her swimwear style as she posed in a bubblegum-pink Chanel logo-print bikini.
One image captured the mom of four holding her tennis racquet awkwardly out to the side, while another saw her reaching the racquet toward the sky for an overhead shot. She captioned the photo carousel with a tennis ball emoji and a pink heart.

Williams is already turningOlympiainto a tiny force on the court, signaling she’s become an expert instructor to those close to her.
In July, Williamsshared a throwback video of a lessonshe gave Olympia when she was just 3, using the same techniques her father (and coach)Richard Williamstaught her as a young girl.
While Olympia appears to have inherited her mom’s tennis talent, the 6-year-old isn’t quite as big of a fan of the game as the rest of her family. While appearing on CBS News’Person to Person with Norah O’Donnellin March, Williams lamented that Olympia “doesn’t actually like to play tennis too much.”
“That’s a little disappointing for me, but she’s actually really good at it,” Williams said. “So we are trying to figure out a way to get her to play a little bit.”
