Venus Williams has a new Barbie, this one part of the dollmaker's Inspiring Women collection.
Williams' doll celebrates the tennis great and pay equity champion with a doll wearing the uniform she wore while winning Wimbledon in 2007.
Williams' win for the fifth of her seven grand slam titles was the first time a woman received equal prize money as the men at a top-level tournament.
The doll, suggested to retail for US$38 (RM160.50), features Williams in all white with a green gem necklace, wristband, racket and tennis ball.
Williams also had a Barbie doll released in May 2024 that highlighted nine trailblazing female athletes as part of Barbie's 65th anniversary celebration. – AP
