Curvy tennis star Serena Williams gets her beach wiggle on... but her tiny bikini is barely fit for purpose
Last updated at 11:16 AM on 18th April 2011
Serena Williams looks in great spirits as she confidently shimmies down the beach in a mis-matched bikini.
The Wimbledon tennis champion put on a little dance as she relaxed with friends in Miami today.
But the 29-year-old came close to a double fault - her strapless bikini top clearly struggled to contain her ample bosom.

Getting better all the time: The tennis star is recuperating from emergency surgery in February to have a blood clot removed from her lung
Roll with it: Serena Williams busted some moves on the Miami beach
Williams has been recuperating in Miami following emergency surgery two months ago. She is recovering from an operation to remove a blood clot 'the size of a grapefruit' found in her lung in February.
Williams had developed a haematoma from a pulmonary embolism, stemming from an incident when she cut her foot on broken glass in a Munich restaurant last July.
And she admitted to being very down recently, having being sidelined from her sport since claiming her
13th Grand Slam title at Wimbledon last July.
'I definitely have not been happy,' she said. 'Especially when I had that second
(foot) surgery, I was definitely depressed. I cried all the time. I was
miserable to be around.'
Revealing: Williams wore a mis-matched bikini, but the strapless top half struggled to contain her ample bosom
Williams, who has slipped to world
number 11 in her absence from the WTA Tour, is unlikely to return before
the summer and admitted that the time spent on the sidelines had taken an
emotional toll.
A part of her lung had 'died' from the pulmonary embolism and she has remained on blood thinning medication.
But while she hasn't been able to play tennis, she has been able to keep up with her lucrative sponsorship contracts.
A television advert featuring her curvy figure was recently released to promote Top Spin 4, a tennis game made for the Wii console.
But it is unlikely to be seen by many - the game’s maker 2K Sports rejected it because it was deemed too raunchy.

I can't believe people are making rude comments about Serena "daring" to wear a bikini on a beach... Oh the shock that a non-twig would dare bare any skin while going in the sea on a hot day - yet loads of people on here defended that talentless slob from The Only Way is Essex doing her nude photo shoot with big rolls of Jabba the hut flab! Serena is an amazing athlete, superstar role model, and beautiful woman. So what if her bum isn't size 8? (ps bet none of you would dare insult her to her face)...
