Overshadowing her tiny actress pal Eva, Serena drew all the stares as she showed off her toned bod on the white sands.

Serena, who has won 23 Grand Slams, was seen giggling and taking a walk with her Desperate Housewives pal Eva – ignoring the stares of other beach goers.

It has been a great year of tennis for the star.

She said: “When I was 20 or 18 I never thought I’d be playing at this stage and I have had a lot of time to think about it.

“I never thought I would have one of my best years this year, but I always just try to keep doing better.

“I’m still looking to improve and what I learned most about this year is I have a lot of room for improvement.

“And talking with my coach Patrick Mouratoglou, I’m so excited for next year just to take my game to a new level.”
