The Williams sisters
either are examples of
"athletic power"
or better living
through chemistry. Injuries
with long healing times
coupled with constant
new injuries seems to point
to the chemistry ...

Is there extensive drug testing in tennis?

Anyone who's seen the development of the Williams sisters from their early teens onwards knows how insane an accusation of "chemistry" as the font of their success is. Their respective physiques didn't exactly just appear one day.
Tennis is a tough sport, everyone gets injuries in it, and powerfully explosive athletes tend to get injured more than most--- that's the nature of powerfully explosive movement.
That Serena in particular is doing better this year than last is utterly understandable. She was injured much of last year--- it happens--- and her freaking sister was murdered. That last will tend to take your mind of things off the less important things in your life, like tennis, I think.
