Williams on love for jewellery: 'I am obsessed with hearts'

“I am obsessed with hearts. If you go back and look at photos, pretty much all my matches—99% of the time—you see me wearing some sort of heart necklace”.

On her love for jewellery, Williams admitted that it wasn't understood at first: “I remember a long, long time ago I wore this diamond star ring on my right hand that everyone looked at and was like, ‘How do you play wearing that?' It wasn’t anything super-fancy—it had a really interesting shape; it almost looked like a starfish, but with four arms instead of five.

But it was fine. I’ve always worn crazy jewelry on the court—massive rings, diamonds, necklaces. I mean, most people like jewelry, but I love jewelry.

“You don’t have to change pieces, but you can add pieces—something bolder, or more strong, or even something with a word on it—even if it’s a more delicate piece.
