PHOTOS: Serena Williams' Shopping Spree With French Tennis Coach Turned BOYFRIEND In Milan

ALL SMILES - Serena Williams and Patrick Mouratoglou

It was shop until you drop in Milan for tennis ace Serena Williams and her tennis coach turned rumoured new lover Patrick Mouratoglou. Serena, 30, shopped to her heart's content and dropped what looked like a neat bundle in Milan, Italy on Sunday [Sept 23].

Even though Serena is muscular, strong and fit, her handsome companion insisted on carrying most of her packages - and there were a lot of them.

For her outing, Serena squeezed her figure into skintight black pants, pink top and black flats. Patrick looked classy and casual in dark blue jeans and white shirt open at the neck.

Serena has been on a European breather of late, with Patrick never far from her side. She deserved some relaxation after garnering the gold at the Summer Olympics in the women's singles and doubles with her sister Venus.

Serena also won at the U.S. Open on September 9, for which she was coached by Patrick.

Earlier this month, Serena and Patrick were spotted getting cosy together in Valbonne in southern France, where they dined out and spent time viewing listings of properties along the Riviera.

That behavior seemingly confirmed the rumours that Serena was dating Patrick, who runs a tennis academy near Paris.

After that, she dated rapper-actor Common for two years, but broke up with him in 2010.
