    Serena & Venus: No class after matches

    Henin isn't American, so she isn't deemed worthy of getting much coverage. That's the way it is with the sport here in the States.

    Serena / Hantuchova

    She's lucky she was playing Hantuchova. A better player -- or, at least one who is mentally stronger -- would have finished her off. Henin probably would have relished the opportunity.

    Fed not in HIs Best During His Loss on FO Final

    Um, obviously. He did LOSE after all.

    Graff's double handed backhand pic

    I don't think she gave any consideration to actually using it. She was just known for hitting it in practice.

    Serena gives no respect to Henin

    No, it doesn't. She was condescending toward Henin and Henin's play by saying she only played "decent" and employed "little" tactics. That's not giving someone due credit unless, of course, you think it's flattering when someone gives you a backhanded compliment.

    Serena gives no respect to Henin

    But that's not the whole quote. THIS is the whole quote: Saying that Justine "had her little tactics" and "hit decent [sic]" isn't really giving her much credit. More of a low class, backhanded compliment by Serena.

    Serena gives no respect to Henin

    Maybe that has something to do with Justine's placement or the spin she put on the ball.

    Serena vs. Henin - Who wins?

    Well, it's shown up in the AP New Stories and will probably be in the interview when it's posted on the French Open website. http://sports.yahoo.com/ten/news;_ylt=AnXXhHYlW2jJlk4q824L0uI4v7YF?slug=ap-frenchopen&prov=ap&type=lgns

    Serena Revelation (Re-titled)

    Seriously. Anyone who has ever had tennis lessons has probably been told that.

    ATP has Federer - but why is there no really great WTA player yet in this century?

    That's why Hingis and Henin are my favorite female players. Those two know variety. Well, in Hingis' case, I'm not so sure she knows power except when it's coming at her...

    how did donald young get so over-hyped in the beginning anyway?

    I think the problem is further compounded by the fact that many people are very focused on discovering "the next great American hope" in the sport and they want to find that person FAST. So, they latch onto whoever they think might be that person and build the hype around the discovery.

    How On Earth Did Serena Win So Easily?

    That's a match I'd like to see. Justine has both power and variety, plus she can move well. However, Justine will be getting over some personal problems when she returns. So, whether or not she'll really be in prime contention for a while is questionable.

    Will womens final be another "chokefest"?

    It'd be...interesting...to see Serena play a five-set match, that's for sure.

    I hope it plays out as well as their Wimbledon final.

    Serena vs Vaidisova semis

    I dunno. Isn't that what some people were saying about Sharapova before he demolished Serena at Wimbledon? I'm not saying I think Vaidisova will win, but just because she's young doesn't mean she'll succumb to nerves.

    Williams v Jankovic

    Honestly, what was Serena going to say? "I'm glad Venus isn't here because she's playing terribly." Yeah, I don't think so.

    Williams v Jankovic

    Right. And how many matches did she play last year? Maybe that statistic isn't quite as jawdroppingly in Serena's favor as it seems...

    Fed BOasting????

    What's he supposed to say? It'd come off and ridiculous and insincere if he said, "I never really thought I was very good" given all that he has accomplished. And it's not really saying much to acknowledge that you know you have potential - A LOT of people have potential but simply aren't able...
