Adira River is not only enterting into the world as the younger sibling to Alexis Olympia Ohanian, Jr. but also as a team owner. As AFROTECH previously told you, Serena and Alexis became part-owners in the Los Angeles Golf Club, the first team in Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s tech-infused golf league, TGL.
On Instagram, Alexis shared that Olympia would be joined by her then-future sibling.
“Announcing my fellow co-owner of @wearelagc… @olympiaohanian! Olympia is the youngest owner in professional sports (@weareangelcity) and is now the youngest 2-team owner in professional sports. She’ll be joined by her future sibling,” Alexis wrote in a caption on June 8, 2023.

Now, Adira’s stake in The Los Angeles Golf Club was confirmed again in a tweet following the announcement of their newest bundle of joy.
So is Adira! The trust I invested through covers Olympia and future kids Serena and I have — so Adira is a part of @weareangelcity ownership, too!

Including their children in business ventures has become a pattern for Serena and Alexis. As AFROTECH previously told you, Olympia took over headlines as the youngest owner in professional sports after acquiring stake in women’s soccer team Angel City FC.
“As someone who spends hours kicking around a football with my two-year-old daughter, I want her to have a front row seat to this revolution. I’m personally investing on behalf of my family because creating more opportunities in women’s sports is important to my wife and me, and we want to be a part of making a better future for our daughter,” Alexis said, according to a National Women’s Soccer League news release.
Adira is now joining her sister in history books, as the youngest owners in professional sports.
