According to reports in The Sun, plucky after-party goers challenged the tennis icon to a game of beer pong at Frogmore House, and unsurprisingly, she thrashed them.
Beer pong, a drinking game whereby competitors throw ping pong balls into cups filled with beer, was apparently one of the diversions on offer at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s reception.
A source told The Sun: “Serena Williams played beer pong like it was tennis”.
While good hand-to-eye coordination skills are a given, the 23-time singles champion also came prepared, sporting a pair of trainers under her Valentino dress.
