Serena Williams becomes first athlete on Forbes' World's Richest Self-Made Women list.

The tennis star, fashion mogul and fierce mama made Forbes' list of the World's Richest Self-Made Women this month.Forbes estimates Williams' wealth to be $225 million, which the magazine reports she earned mostly off the court. In the past five years, she's invested in 34 start-ups, with 60% of Williams' investments going to companies led by women or people of color.

In April, the tennis pro also launched her own brand, Serena Ventures, which helps to fund other start-ups and launch her own companies. Williams echoed similar sentiments on Tuesday in a new Instagram post showing off her Forbes Special Issue cover.

Congratulations

not self made, without the money behind tennis and advertisement deals she would have little to show for her efforts ...

With those awesome biceps 💪 like hers it’s no wonder she’s highly paid.

Finally Forbes picked “The actually deserving” self-made woman, hats off to legend of the game one and only Serena Williams

RealPatAlston Didn't know Serena's net worth was that high

Go! serenawilliams

It can be done.

She has come of age this one.

Richest baby sore loser, ever.

I will never believe she hasn't spent her career dosing.

That's what we call true self made, not KylieJenner who has grown up in a rich family

Now SHE is deserving of the Medal of a honor!

Easy to make a lot when you don’t have to play 5 sets. Yeah I said it ...

'Self made' is debatable in sports.

She is so bad a**! ❤️

And she owes it all to her father

Serena bids early adieu at French, like Osaka before herMaybe it was the daunting deficit Serena Williams faced in the French Open's third round. Maybe it was the way her 20-year-old American opponent, Sofia Kenin, was questioning line calls. Whether it was meant to get herself going or intimidate Kenin, it didn't work. Sleep deprived motherhood; she will come back.
