Reports have it that,  Wimbledon champion, Serena Williams who was thought to be in a relationship with rapper Drake, is now dating Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, after they 'met at a lunch'.

Although Williams, was recently linked to Drake, a second source says it was simply a “flirty friendship.”

While the relationship is ''new'', the tennis star had the entrepreneur join her at her workout at the Los Angeles School of Gymnastics on Saturday, October 24 and an onlooker told the outlet that Alexis 'called her babe' and they 'held hands'. This is according to US Weekly.

He is a partner at Y Combinator, and is also the executive chairman of Reddit.

Early this month, a spokeperson for the 29-year-old Rapper Drake, who was previously linked to Serena put to rest the speculation of their alleged engagement saying to Daily Mail Online, "the rumor is completely untrue."

On September 11, when Serena lost her bid for the first Grand Slam since 1988 to competitor Roberta Vinci, fans even took to Twitter to blame Drake for her heartbreaking loss.

Sitting in the front row alongside Vogue's Anna Wintour, Drake attended Serena's runway show at New York Fashion Week, a few days after that.

Harper's Bazaar in November, will feature Serena in a stunning spread. She will be seen modeling a tailored white jumpsuit in the Daring Issue.
