[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really? I thought at this US Open particularly that they were pretty complimentary towards the Williams sisters. They were like actively rooting for Venus in the match she lost.

But Serena isn't everyone's cup of tea, she's a great player no doubt [b]but can be kind of a snot [/b]IMO, while Venus has always been a class act.  I rather wanted Azarenka to pull off the upset.[/quote]

She is self-assured, confident, and assertive.  She doesn't bow.  It is deemed uncomingly in a woman.  [/quote]

You should go back and read some of her interviews.  She's all sweet and nice when she wins but a sore loser and famously is reluctant to give credit to her opponents when she loses. Whenever she has an outburst on court or off and is asked about it later its always , "oh I can't remember" instead of owning up to it. I admire women who are self-assured, confident an assertive, not so much when they're rude and have a large ego.[/quote]

I love the Williams sisters, was playing high school tennis when they were coming up in the ranks, although I will admit though that some of the things Serena says make me cringe!  But I think she has certain players who seh beleives are "worthy" opponents, and those who are not.  I think she actually finds Azarenka to be a worthy opponent, Kim Clijsters was another one.  Justine Henin or anyone ranked outside the top 10, not so much.[/quote]
