Sadly, my first thought was... drugs.

Pretty clearly she was under the influence of some type of drug(s).

Sad to see.

Saw that - she was either having some scary neurological issues or was swacked on something.

Another comment from Shriver was that after talking to her trainer/boyfriend, he said he hasn’t seen Serena in several days, which is very strange.

Unintentional drugs. Some rival doping her?

Does she have any history of drugs? I don’t follow tennis closely but I’ve never seen such reports.Can heat be a factor?

Personally, I think it is very obvious that Serena uses PEDs. Maybe they have finally caught up with her.

I don’t see how it could be much more obvious.

Those steroids do that after prolonged usage. Just ax Lance Armstrong sista.

Don't they regularly,and carefully,test for that stuff? Yes,she kinda muscular but then so are female figure skaters.
