Serena Williams heats up the summer in Ebony magazine

Serena Williams recently shows off her physique in the July issue of Ebony magazine.

In the exclusive issue, she talks about dating, her Olympic hope and staying fit. Here's an excerpt from the interview:

To keep her body in top condition, she indulges in scrumptious salads, which include feta cheese, candied walnuts and strawberries. “It’s too hot in the summer to cook, so I love to grill chicken and fish,” she adds.

"I also love to grill vegetables and serve them chilled.”

When asked about her rumored love interest, Common, Serena said, “I think he’s a great guy. He’s obviously a great artist who is timeless and classic. You can’t beat that. But I have to focus on tennis because that’s my goal in life.”
