Melanie takes a small stab at the Williams sisters and tells it like it is. I guess there is not enough money involved for the Williams sisters to play for their own country.
“I wanted to come here. I wanted to play for my country. Other people choose different things,” U.S. Open quarterfinalist Melanie Oudin said after her 7-5, 6-2 loss to Flavia Pennetta gave Italy an insurmountable 3-0 lead in the best-of-five series.
“Some people I guess didn’t want to play as badly as I did. But I think that the team that we had here really wanted to be here,” Oudin said. “You don’t want people here that don’t want to be here. Even if you lose, if you give it everything you have, then that’s the best you can do.”
