Wearing a cut-out leotard, the 42-year-old suspended herself on two bars, using just one hand to balance as she did the splits for a high-end fashion shoot.

Ever the perfectionist, Serena could still find fault with her poise, as she captioned the shot: “Still working on that toe point @gqlew.”

In her interview for the magazine, the star opened up about her glittering tennis career admitting that she’s not someone to pour all over her trophies and in some cases, she’s lost them.

“I have lots of trophies, and I’m just—I’m not that person that needs to see all these trophies,” she said.

“I have some in my house here, some in my house there, some I don’t know what happened to ’em. I have my grand-slam trophies…somewhere.”

Serena surprised us a little as she appeared to concede to pressure from Twitter trolls.
