SERENA Williams might have finally met her match.

It looks like the tennis ace and Drake are officially an item, judging by these photos of the high-profile pair pashing at a restaurant on Sunday night.

According to TMZ, the world’s top player and the Canadian rapper booked a private room at the back of a fancy Italian eatery after Williams’ finals win over Simona Halep at the Cincinnati Open that day.

The two “couldn’t keep their hands and lips off of each other ... while several patrons watched,” onlookers told the website.

Serena and Drake were reportedly joined by six other people for dinner, and at one point ordered a round of tequila shots for the whole table.

Rumours have been doing the rounds for months that the pair might be dating after Drake was spotted cheering on Serena at Wimbledon in July and has been popping up at her big games ever since.

Drake even rapped about Serena in his 2013 song Worst Behaviour. “I’m with my whole set, tennis matches at the crib. I swear I could beat Serena when she playin’ with her left,” he raps.

But, according to Page Six, they are just friends.

“Serena briefly dated Drake around 2011 and even though it didn’t end that well, they have remained friends since. He has been at her side at a lot of tournaments recently, including Wimbledon in July, where he sat in her box next to her sister Venus.

“Serena is single at the moment and is focused on winning the US Open, and making history.”
