I wasn't.
40 year olds don't win grand slams.
Venus is older than Serena. She won’t get far either. Time for her to get married and have children.
Weren’t the Williams sisters the ones who introduced all the disgusting grunting to the sport of female tennis? They may not have introduced it I guess, but they were the first ones to me who made it so noticeable that to me, it overshadowed anything else.
It is like someone who has a weird verbal tic, and once you hear it, you cannot unhear it.
I was never a big fan of watching tennis, though I loved playing it, but I couldn’t stand to hear that grunting it and avoided women’s tennis like the plague.
I always kind of liked Chris Evert, never knew her politics, which I have always appreciated. Can’t say the same of Navratilova from the same era, who I always disliked and suspected of using steroids.
agree with everything you said.
In case anyone is curious as to what SW19 is all about, the postal code for Wimbledon is 19. South Wimbledon postal code 19.
“Long past her retirement age”
I’d say she “died with her boots on”, an admirable thing to do.
Losing must have felt like a real kick in the balls to her.
Serena was the Queen of unsportsmanlike conduct until Osaka came along.
??? Wonder if shes any relation to Mantan Moreland!!
SW = south west - it’s in the south west area of the city of London.
Too heavy, too old, too out of shape. She needs to retire.
Monica Seles did that.
LOL, I remember the SNL “At Home With Monica Seles”...where she would grunt doing everything like opening a can of soda.
As I said, I didn’t know if they originated it, but their use of it was completely repellent to me.
I’m surprised there hasn’t been more uproar about trannies in women’s sports.
How cool that you knew that! Thank you for your service, sir.
What did Osaka do? I missed that.
Haven’t you been following the Osaka telenovela?
