Twenty three grand slams winner, Serena Williams has put up her California mansion up for sale at the rate of $9.9m after she purchased a new family home in Beverly Hills, splashing out an eye-watering $6.7m.

Serena Williams slashes $2m off asking price for her six bedroom Bel-Air mansion to just under $10m
The luxurious six bedroom duplex has a new asking price that falls just a little below $10m, at $9,995,000, after sitting on the market at $12m since October.
Tennis champ Serena still stands to make a healthy profit despite the price drop, since she acquired the property for just over $6m in 2006.
The home, which Serena shared with her Reddit co-founder husband Alexis Ohanian and their daughter Alexis Olympia, was originally built in 1935 and sits on 2.7 acres of land with private hiking trails and gardens.
