“Hitting the bag with Serena Williams. She has some power,” Tyson wrote.

The pre-season training camp brought together professional athletes, including Williams and US tennis rising star Coco Gauff, along with US show business figures.

“I wanted to renew with the tradition of organising a team-building camp to prepare for the Australian Open,” Mouratoglou said.

“Along with Serena, we brought in a new, crazy-talented generation of players, and even some DJs and fitness gurus.”
