"Angel City [FC] was largely prompted by a dare from my wife [Serena Williams]," the Reddit co-founder said. Ohanian also said that his daughter running around in an Alex Morgan jersey while watching the 2019 Women's World Cup final prompted him to pitch the idea of her playing for the US women's football team. Serena Williams quickly pointed out that her daughter would only play if she was paid what she was worth. This propelled Ohanian to take up the challenge of founding Angel City FC. "As I was watching the 2019 Women's World Cup final and my daughter was running around in an Alex Morgan jersey. I was just musing like, 'Hey, wouldn't it be cool if she played for the women's national team one day?' And Serena without missing a single beat said, 'Not until they pay her what she's worth.' I was like, alright, challenge accepted, let's see if I can do some things to help," Ohanian expressed. Morgan hailed Alexis Ohanian for his contribution to women's sports through his investment and promotion."Women's sports has always been on the cusp of a huge breakthrough. The thing that's held us back is the lack of investment. The return is so great. It’s people like Alexis Ohanian that immediately get that," the USWNT star said.
