Maybe other skaters in the past behaved similarly, but NONE of the current top women players allow themselves to act like Serena, most of them are actually extremely gracious and respectful. Venus has so much more class than Serena, it's hard to believe they are sisters. Also, Serena is so full of herself that makes it very difficult for me to root for her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-8880296090356308272011-09-13T10:25:55.009-07:002011-09-13T10:25:55.009-07:00Even if Serena is past her peak, she looks more th...Even if Serena is past her peak, she looks more than capable of winning another 3-5 slams.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-32263379996679799702011-09-13T09:54:33.274-07:002011-09-13T09:54:33.274-07:00To the commenters that think Serena is on the decl...To the commenters that think Serena is on the decline, you clearly don't follow tennis. You're probably the average viewer that tunes in 4 times a year--for the finals of the Aussie, French, Wimbledon and US Open (if even the Aussie). Only a year following foot surgery and emergency surgery for a pulmonary embolism, she has been winning matches and a few titles like nobody's business. Granted she came up short at Wimbledon (but that was her first major back), she breezed through fairly easily to the US open finals, which is no easy feat for any top tennis player. Decline? I think not. On the rise from a comback? Yes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-3437698996723548402011-09-13T09:26:14.964-07:002011-09-13T09:26:14.964-07:00I agree with the first comment.

Should their be more outbursts? No. That's not why the majority of fans watch the sport.

But my favorite outbursts remains Boris Becker's at the 1990 U.S. Open especially versus Agassi in the semi-finals to whom he lost to for the first time. After losing a close point he'd shout to the chair umpire in frustration 'Watch it tonight on the T.V.!'! Referring to the nighly recaps.

What a crock that people still hide their latent racism and sexism behind a veil of "what an athlete (or woman) should be." Johnnie Mac pulled this act decades ago, and was praised by some (and hated by a lot). However, a woman does it, much less a black woman, and shes "ghetto" and "a bad sport". Screw that. Yeah its nice to be nice, but fuck all that BS. Athletes are trained to compete their best and to win. I LOVE Serena for her all out aggression and passion to win. Maybe if America cared about the actual objective instead of bullshit platitudes and niceties, we wouldn't be headed straight for a Tea Party in Hell. <br /><br />BTW, that "lesbian nigger bitch" could kick your close-minded ass from here to next week AND she has probably made 10000x the money you'll ever dream of.<br /><br />Americans take too much stock in sports and pro athletes anyway. Why not hero worship the real heroes of this country: Teachers, who are underpaid and overworked, trying to teach a generation that either doesn't want to learn or doesn't want to put in the effort.Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08257360038917095545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-55142153829428945122011-09-12T21:13:46.409-07:002011-09-12T21:13:46.409-07:00I've always preferred Venus over Serena.

And she has had A LOT to complain about. It's unfortunate (but also hilarious) that her two big outbursts have been on such a big stage. Though let's be real: calling her "unattractive inside" isn't exactly going to make it into the annals of great breakdowns.
