Serena Williams cannot play in the French Open. She's pregnant.
But she's not pregnant enough that she can't travel. Williams and fiancé reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian went to Europe this week and Serena looks like she is having an absolute blast.
She went to the Monaco Grand Prix, where she saw Chris Hemsworth, went on a boat in the Mediterranean Sea and hung by the pool.

Soccer star Falcao even found her hanging in the streets.

Serena then made her way to Paris for the French Open, a tournament she has won three times, to watch sister Venus play her second-round match Wednesday against Kurumi Nara. Venus won, 6-3, 6-4, and Serena chilled pretty hard in the crowd.
Your attention please... @SerenaWilliams has arrived at @RolandGarros.
@VenusesWilliams vs. K. Nara now LIVE on TC.

Serena also got a chance to catch up with her coach, France native Patrick Mouratoglou.

But the big news came when Mouratoglou interviewed Venus on Eurosport after her match. He asked her what Serena's baby will call her, and Venus dropped a "she." Does that mean the gender of the baby is a girl? You be the judge:

Serena wrapped up her day at the Saint Germain Apple Store.

Serena looks like she may be having too much fun. She could forget this whole tennis thing and just travel the world as a celebrity for the rest of her life.
But that's probably not going to happen. She'll be back in Paris next year, so in the meantime, the rest of the women's field should enjoy the 2017 event. The usual favorite was out of the draw before the tournament even started.
