Apparently star athlete Serena Williams needed a pick-me-up earlier today. When the elite tennis player was down 5-0, losing a set in only 19 minutes, at the Hopman Cup in Perth, Australia earlier today, she requested an espresso. A diligent assistant quickly delivered, and soon after Williams had quite a comeback.
