World number one tennis star Serena Williams has revealed that she chased down a thief who swiped her phone while she was dining at a Chinese restaurant.
The 34-year-old, who was with her sister Venus Williams and Caroline Wozniacki, has claimed that she jumped over chairs to get her phone back.
On Facebook, Williams wrote: "Not thinking I reacted, I jumped up, weaved my way in and out of the cozy restaurant (leaping over a chair or two) and chased him down. He began to run but I was too fast. (Those sprints came in handy) I was upon him in a flash!
"In the most menacing yet calm no nonsense voice I could muster I kindly asked him if he "accidentally" took the wrong phone. He stumbled on his words probably not expecting this to happen. While he was thinking of the right thing to say and eventually he said 'Gosh you know what I did! It was so confusing in there. I must have grabbed the wrong phone'.
"Superhero? Maybe? Or HELL YEA!! I've got the speed the jumps, the power, the body, the seduction, the sex appeal, the strength, the leadership and yet the calm to weather the storm. Always listen to your superhero inner voice. When I got back into the restaurant I received a standing ovation. I was proud. I just showed every man in there I can stand up to bully's and other men. It was a win for the ladies!"
Williams, who has won 21 Grand Slam titles, is on a break after getting beaten in the semi-finals of the US Open in September.
