Serena would have preferred to watch her and Andy play

I want a healthy Sir Andy to be playing singles and competing for slams again

"Serena Williams says she felt like she wanted to watch her highly-anticipated Wimbledon mixed doubles match with Andy Murray rather than play in it - and will try to see a video of their win."

I think I know what she means. :cool:

I do know what she means. The match was a blast. She and Andy worked well together and it was SO GOOD to see Sir Andrew back on the court.

They should keep this mixed doubles partnership. Serena is too fat and slow these days to win just by the baseline, especialy with more players matching her power off the ground as well, so she has to serve lights out to win playing exclusively from the baseline against a top player. So she needs to incorporate more net play into her singles to win more slams, which doubles will help her do and she doesnt play as much with her sister anymore.

Murray with his hip operations can no longer last all day from the baseline against a tough opponent either. If he plans on returning to and continuing in singles he too needs to take the net more, and this is great practice.
