Serena Williams flaunted her post-pregnancy physique during her first-round matchup at the French Open on Tuesday, wearing a black Nike catsuit on the clay court.

Williams said the catsuit represented "all the moms out there who had a tough pregnancy and had to come back and try to be fierce."

Williams returned to the court in Paris and defeated Kristyna Pliskova in straight sets 7-6, 6-4.

The outfit was inspired by Marvel movie Black Panther, according to The Telegraph. "I call it like my Wakanda-inspired cat suit,” Williams said.

Williams suffered her own share of pregancy problems.
