Victoria Azarenka's son Leo recently played tennis with a chocolate racquet and shared a laugh with mother Azarenka as the "racquet" broke after the first shot.
Azarenka shared a video featuring her son in which, she threw a tennis ball and Leo tried to hit it with a tennis racquet made out of chocolate. However, the racquet broke as he tried to hit the ball. This incident drew a chuckle out of both Azarenka and Leo.

Victoria Azarenka's son Leo accompanied her during interview at the 2024 Charleston Open
Victoria Azarenka appeared on Tennis Channel after her third-round win against Taylor Townsend and was joined by her son Leo. The mother-son duo spoke to host Steve Weissman about Azarenka's performance in the 3R match.
Weissman asked Leo about what he thought about his mom's performance.
Amazing!" Leo replied (at 1:53).
The former World No. 1 then asked Leo about what he did after she lost the first set. Leo replied that he went for an ice cream break.
"I needed an ice cream break. I really needed it. I was too hot," Leo answered (at 1:59).
Azarenka chuckled at the kids's admission and said that Leo's ice cream helped her win the match. She also joked that she also had an ice cream break during the bathroom break.
"Yeah, I wish I could. That's it. I went to the bathroom and took an ice break too—an ice cream break [laughs]," Azarenka said.
Leo then revealed that he had chocolate-flavored ice cream.
"I had chocolate," Leo said.
Azarenka reiterated that chocolate ice cream was the reason for her victory.
He's very particular with his choices. He knows what he wants. Chocolate ice cream [is the key to victory] exactly," Azarenka added.
