Tennis star Serena Williams said she thinks her successful career has put guys off dating her

Tennis star Serena Williams said she thinks her successful career has put guys off dating her.

Serena, 27, is a two-time Wimbledon winner, and she said it’s hard to find a man who isn’t daunted by her having the more successful career.

She said: “You have to be a man with a lot of confidence to date someone who has a better career.”

She added: “Men like being in control, and there are a lot of successful guys who marry or date women who aren’t super-successful.”

But Serena said she would like to date someone stronger.

She said: “Personally, I like a guy who’s the man in the relationship.”
