Williams' doll celebrates the tennis great and pay equity champion by wearing the uniform she donned while winning Wimbledon in 2007. That Grand Slam tournament win was the first time a woman received equal prize money as the men, something she advocated for.

The doll will feature Williams in all white with a green gem necklace, wristband, racket and tennis ball.
