Melbourne: Serena Williams recently faced the wrath of social media after she posted a photoshopped picture of herself.

The 34-year-old tennis star was forced to delete a photo from her Instagram account over the weekend, after more than 600 fans claimed the image was photoshopped to make her waist appear slimmer, reports News.com.au.

Comments such as "I love her but the bar behind her waist is so warped. Disappointing" and "You look beautiful the way you are. Yes this is a great picture but don't feel this is the best representation of your actual body type" started pouring immediately when the snap was posted.
