Serena Williams Hangs Out in Israel
American tennis champion Serena Williams is visiting Israel for a few days.
Williams arrived in the country Monday evening and is vacationing in Eilat for the week, Ynet reported.
Eilat is known as Israel’s tennis capital and has hosted the European-African zone group of the Fed Cup for the past three years.
Williams, who has won 29 Grand Slam titles – 15 in singles and the rest in doubles with her sister, Venus – this year won the U.S. Open and Wimbledon, along with Olympic gold medals at the London Games in singles and doubles.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions.

The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
