She was awesome! What a sweetheart.
Kim is in fine form also....i have really enjoyed it this year...having the Tennis Channel helps :)
This girl has some flesh on her bones. All the better to wack the ball harder. I can’t remember when an American girl was doing so well. Americans used to dominate woman’s tennis
Besides the Williams sisters, there has been nobody. Apple Pie needs to stay focused and not get caught up, like has happened to so many at her age.

They were a little bit too strange and dittos for their father

I should say they weren’t much on my radar. They had image problems for me
They have indirectly hurt womens tennis in the sense that girls who are 5’5” and 110 lbs try to copy their power game. The Williams sisters are phenomenal athletes, but don’t rely on finesse, which is what it takes for these smaller players.
I’m hoping Clijsters or Oudin wins.
I like Venus, but Serena has zero class. When she loses, she never ever gives credit to her opponent. Instead, she chooses to come up with every lame excuse in the book.
AND sometimes she starts with the excuses while still on the court. Still remember the time Capriati was whipping Serena’s fanny in a major (the semis I think) and Serena suddenly pleaded to the chair that she just had to go to the bathroom. It was #2 and she just couldn’t hold it, don’t ya know (court microphone caught it all). In reality, Serena was just trying to buy 10 to 12 minutes to regroup, but it didn’t work. Capriati got the win.

One of the sisters went nuts today.....image problems like I said. Make them uninteresting to me
