• Tennis star Serena Williams could see a boon from the initial public offering of the parent company of SurveyMonkey.
• Williams serves as a director of the company and owns 210,000 options and another 35,000 shares.
• Williams' options come with a very standard caveat: Each one will cost her $16.03 to buy — so unless SurveyMonkey really explodes out of the gate after its IPO, her potential profit will likely pale in comparison to her winnings from tennis. 
• Still, depending how things go, the SurveyMonkey IPO could mean a tidy payday for Williams.
