Serena Williams shows off superhero powers

Serena Williams has shown superhuman powers in remaining at the pinnacle of women’s tennis during a career that has spanned over two decades, and the American may have just revealed her inspiration.

The reigning French Open and Wimbledon champion dressed as He-Man as she partied at the seventh annual Williams Invitational in good spirits alongside actor and model Colton Haynes.

The event has been held for a number of years at the tennis star’s home in Florida, and several of her friends and family joined her for the 80s-themed celebrations during the course of the weekend.

Williams wore He-Man’s iconic outfit with an orange wig as she took to Instagram to share a photo of her looking mean and ready to defend her realm against evil forces alongside the 27-year-old Haynes, who is best known for his Jackson Whittemore role in MTV’s supernatural drama series Teen Wolf.

Haynes may be more accustomed with adopting the persona of a superhero from his time on stage, but with 36 major titles — 21 in singles, 13 in women's doubles, and two in mixed doubles — Williams is undeniably the most powerful woman in the universe when it comes to tennis.
