New photo Serena Williams sports revealing green lycra jumpsuit at Australian Open

The French Open courted controversy in August last year, when it banned Serena Williams from wearing her catsuit at this year's tournament.

And on Tuesday at the first round of the Australian Open in Melbourne, the American tennis champion had a defiant message for her critics.

The 37-year-old sported a custom-made, figure-hugging green Lycra jumpsuit by Nike, which she teamed with fishnet stockings.

The mother-of-one's body-hugging attire caused mixed reactions, with some loving the look and others finding it 'distasteful'. 

In her first-round victory over Germany's Tatjana Maria, Serena took to centre court in a sleeveless green lycra jumpsuit featuring black and white panels across the bust and waist, the hemline finished at mid-thigh, revealing every contour of her figure.

President Bernard Giudicelli said in the 500th issue of Tennis Magazine that stricter rules will be in place as 'sometimes we go too far.' 

Referring to Ms Williams' black catsuit, which she wore to the tournament last year, Mr Giudicelli said: 'It will no longer be accepted. One must respect the game and the place.' 

In defence, Ms Williams said the skin-tight outfit helps with preventing blood-clots, a condition she has covered in depth in her HBO series, Being Serena.   

The 23-time Grand Slam winner's sponsor Nike, also spoke out, sharing a photo to social media of Ms Williams in the outfit, along with the caption: 'You can take the superhero out of her costume, but you can't take away her superpowers.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
