Serena Williams sure has been spending a lot on time on the court with coach Patrick Mouratouglou this season, winning Wimbledon, gold at the Olympics and the U.S. Open to cap an impressive 2012 season. It also seems they’ve been seeing each other off-court as well.
A Picture is Worth A thousand Words
But, based on these phot
os from a French tennis website, Williams and Mouratouglou may be spending time together off the course as well. The two were spotted cozying up to each other on the streets of Paris recently, leading many to believe there’s a budding relationship going on between player and coach.
Mouratouglou, who runs a tennis academy in France, started working with Williams after the French Open, and based solely on the number of major trophies she’s won since he came on board, there’s no question the switch has been beneficial.
Not Really Going Out On A Limb When Saying The Two Are A Couple
I guess it could now be beneficial in other ways as well. Are they really dating? Who knows for sure. We’d all like to believe a photo or two tells the whole story, but maybe this is just two friends hanging out together in the City of Love, arms around each other … with Williams putting her hand in Mouratouglou’s back pocket.
OK, I’m not one to jump to conclusions, but I’m going out on a limb and saying the Williams-Mouratouglou are dating. It’s hard to say otherwise after checking out the second picture of them looking at international properties in a storefront window.
