What could be more exciting than watching your mom shine at world championships or seeing gymnastics legend Simone Biles perform live? For Olympia Ohanian, daughter of Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian, she got to experience both in one unforgettable day!

Olympia attended the 2024 Gold Over America Tour at the Kia Center in Florida, where her mom cheered on Biles from the audience. The atmosphere was electric, filled with excitement as the iconic gymnast showcased her incredible talent.

Serena and Alexis not only enjoyed the performance but also took a moment to snap a picture with Simone and her team, which Biles later shared on her Instagram story, delighting fans with the behind-the-scenes glimpse.

Following the Florida show, the tour moved to the Gas South Arena in Duluth, Georgia, for another performance on October 13. However, it was Alexis Ohanian’s engaging post on X (formerly Twitter) about the event that truly sparked conversations online, capturing the joy of the day and the family’s supportive spirit.

This fun-filled outing not only highlighted Olympia’s special day but also showcased the strong bond within the Ohanian-Williams family as they celebrate athletic excellence together.

Alexis Ohanian shared an adorable confession about Olympia’s recent visit to the Gold Over America Tour. On X, he wrote, “I had to take S & Jr to see @Simone_Biles’ Gold Over America Tour. Packed house. Awesome night. Don’t miss it if they’re coming to your town. 🥇🥇🥇 And thank you Simone and @ChilesJordan for absolutely making Olympia’s MONTH.” It’s clear the night was a huge success for the whole family, especially for Olympia, who had an unforgettable experience!

In a recent social media post, Alexis Ohanian shared a series of captivating images from the 2024 Gold Over America Tour, including a screenshot of Simone Biles’ Instagram story and a bustling crowd shot. However, the standout photo was the one of Simone with seven-year-old Olympia Ohanian, Serena Williams’ daughter. Fans were quick to notice the height similarities, sparking comparisons between the young girl and the gymnastics icon.

Simone Biles, often hailed as the greatest gymnast of all time, stands at just 4 feet 8 inches (142 cm). Observers are now remarking how Olympia appears to be catching up to Biles in height, prompting discussions about her potential future in gymnastics. This has fans buzzing with excitement, as the idea of Olympia following in Simone’s illustrious footsteps is intriguing.

When a fan commented on Alexis’s Instagram post, asking if Olympia was also doing gymnastics, he confirmed, “She is.” This revelation adds another layer to the excitement surrounding Olympia, suggesting that she may be stepping into the world of gymnastics herself.

While the photo may have created an optical illusion, it certainly has fans envisioning a future where Olympia could become a notable talent in her own right. For now, it’s their shared height that has captured everyone’s attention and left them in awe of the next generation of potential gymnastic greats.

Olympia Ohanian and Simone Biles win over fans everywhere

One fan added, “Olympia is almost as tall as Simone, and she’s only 7! I can’t wait to see which sport she pursues seriously.” While Olympia’s exact height isn’t known, considering that Serena Williams stands at 5 feet 9 inches and Alexis Ohanian is 6 feet 5 inches, it’s likely she’ll be tall, too. But when it comes to Simone Biles, her height combined with her strength has made her a dominant force in gymnastics.

Biles has five moves named after her. Biles’ low center of gravity gives her an advantage in balance and stability—essential for executing the demanding routines on the beam, floor, vault, and uneven bars. With 11 Olympic medals and 30 World Championship medals to her name, Biles proves that height hasn’t held her back at all.

Another fan added, “Is it an optical illusion, or is Olympia really almost as tall as Simone Biles?” Another fan added, “Not Simone and Jr. being the same height.” Well, despite being short, Biles has inspired many. Even NBA G.O.A.T. LeBron James admires the 4-foot-8 Simone Biles, saying she deserves respect. He shared how his daughter, Zhuri, looks up to Biles, inspiring her own journey in gymnastics. With her energy and passion, Zhuri is poised to become a future star. LeBron praised Simone Biles, saying, “She’s an inspiration to my daughter and to all… if you love greatness.” He added, “Simone is super dope. And she’s an inspiration to my daughter and to all, not only Black girls in the world, but also kids, anyone, not only just in gymnastics, but any field.”

At just 5, Zhuri was already showcasing her rhythmic gymnastics s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s, twirling a makeshift ribbon at home while LeBron shared her moments on Instagram. When he asked her something and got no reply, he remarked, “Cool, she’s focused.” These signs suggest Zhuri could be aiming to follow in Simone Biles’ footsteps. It’s no wonder even seasoned athletes like LeBron are in awe of Biles, the most decorated gymnast ever, with 7 Olympic medals across three Games.

One more fan added, “Not Simone and Olympia being the same height.” And another added, “what a powerhouse.” Well, Olympia is an enormous fan of Simone Biles! The mother-daughter duo of Serena Williams and Olympia Ohanian was spotted watching the women’s gymnastics final on July 30, where the American team clinched the gold medal. Olympia, dressed in a pink floral dress and sneakers, looked almost all grown-up as she cheered on Simone Biles from her mom’s lap. While Olympia’s dad, Alexis Ohanian, wasn’t with them, he has been sharing Olympia’s adventures at the Paris Games, including her collection of souvenir pins.

But Serena Williams has earlier declared that her daughters won’t play professional sports until women receive fair pay. Her husband, Alexis Ohanian, recalled a moment when Olympia wore an Alex Morgan jersey, inspiring him to dream of her playing for a national team. Serena insisted on fair compensation first, motivating Ohanian to invest in the Angel City Football Club, a women’s soccer team. While it’s unclear if Olympia will pursue tennis, her Instagram reveals interests in golf, soccer, track and field, and now gymnastics after seeing Simone Biles. In the end, it’s clear that both Olympia and Simone are inspiring the next generation of athletes.
