Fantastic moment for Patrick Mouratoglou that had a new baby girl.
Serena’s coach had the great news soon after he American ended her campaign in Wimbledon where she reached the final before losing 6-2 6-2 to a fantastic Simona Halep.
Patrick has now 4 children, 2 from his previous marriage and 2 with his current wife Ada Obilu.
The Frenchman was previously married with Clarisse Mouratoglou and they have 2 children together. In 2012 Patrick started to coach Serena Williams and according to (many) reports they had a relationship that made the Frenchman split with Clarisse.
Later, Serena and Patrick went on different paths from a “romantic point of view” even if they kept their partnership to win more and more slams.
Eventually, Serena got married to Alexis Ohanian and they have a beautiful baby girl while Patrick got married to Ada Obilu and they have 2 daughters together.
Here Mouratoglou’s post celebrating the new addition to the family.
Congratulations!

I think that Serena has lost her nerve. She seems to have more confidence in her opponent than herself. She still has all of the tools to be a grand slam champion. The sad thing is her opponents know it. They expect to beat her in the final. They bank on her playing scaredy cat tennis. Your talent and fitness does not mean a thing; if you don't believe in yourself.
These women feel like a grand slam champion just beating Serena. Usually if they beat her before the final; they won't go on to win the final. Roberta Vinci; for example. She had no answers for Flavia Pennetta. Roberta was so pumped when she played Serena; she returned a 126 mph serve and won the point. Perhaps this is what's so fightening to Serena. She knows that these women are not afraid of her and that they want to kill her out there.
They are totally focused on winning every point. Serena had a 40 to 15 lead on Andeescu. As soon as Bianca got that 15; she knew that she was going to win the game. That should not happen. Too many time she got to creep into Serena's game; a take it. Serena has the biggest and best serve in women's tennis. Who wouldn't kill for that serve. She must be on point and using these weapons to her advantage in these matches. Her weapons can not become her weakness. God gave them to her. She has worked almost all of her life to polish and perfect what she has. If she has a dominant mind set when she steps on the court ( instead of feeling like a bundle of nerves) she will be able to freely show off these skills.
I think that Serena needs to work on her mental power more than anything. She has already proven that she is indeed the finest athlete to walk this planet. No one can be compared to her. I don't think we will ever again see a pregnant women win a grand slam. What other person or team has consistently come from behind to win. This is no fluke. It's all about the mental power, the heart, the drive and the will. She has lost some of that.
All you can do is pray, practice and believe. Serena has the icing on the cake and 23 cherries. Margaret Court could not roll with any of these women of today (certainly not Serena). The game is too strong. Even the men of her time could not compete. Everything about the game has changed.
Serena I have been following tennis since 1974; I have never seen an athlete like you! I have once seen your sister play. It was many years ago. It was in Villanova. She played Kim Cljsters. She won that night. My wish now is to see Serena play live. I do cheer and pray for Serena before every match. Believe again, and you got it!
