Serena Williams swapped the tennis court for the world of indoor golf Tuesday night but infuriated golf fans felt she should have stayed in her lane. The tennis legend, along with her husband Alexis Ohanian and sister Venus, heads up the star-studded ownership of Los Angeles Golf Club - one of the six teams competing in TGL.

And the 23-time Grand Slam winner was in the house to watch her team take on Tiger Woods and his Jupiter Links teammates in the second match of the golf simulator league's inaugural season. The 43-year-old was spotted cheering on her team of Collin Morikawa, Sahith Theegala and Justin Rose inside LA's VIP suite at SoFi Center in Palm Beach, Florida.
But partway through the 15-hole showdown, Williams swapped her front-row seat for a spot in the booth. Williams joined ESPN's Matt Barrie on the network's broadcast, lending her commentary for two holes. LA Golf Club owner Serena Williams appeared on ESPN's broadcast of TGL Tuesday.

However, golf fans were less than impressed with the retired tennis star's appearance with many brutally taking aim at her lack of golf knowledge.
'Serena Williams knows next to nothing about golf #TGL #LAGC,' one fan posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. 'Serena Williams has no idea what’s going on,' another agreed, before adding: 'It’s actually incredible how dumb Serena Williams sounds.'.
