The husband of former world No. 1 Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian, has weighed in on Nike’s partnership with the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) champions Portland Thorns.
Ohanian, who co-owns another club in the NWSL, recognized the potential for female athletes for clothing brands to collaborate with. The 39-year-old is a part-owner of Angel City FC, a Los Angeles-based team.
Just Women’s Sports got all the Portland Thorns players together for a photo shoot before the NWSL championship party. The players dressed fashionably and posed for the cameras as part of their partnership with Nike.
“Turns out female athletes love fashion and are great for clothing brands looking for partnerships,” she tweeted.

Portland Thorns clinched the NWSL title by beating the Kansas City Current in the final. Sophia Smith opened the scoring for the Thorns four minutes into the game. An own goal from Current’s Addisyn Merrick shortly after half time gave the Thorns a comfortable 2–0 victory and with it the title.
