[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a tennis fan, but I don't see how the best, most experienced women's tennis player in history could receive coaching?  Why would she need coaching? 
(BTW, I read somewhere her coach admitted he was coaching her), but i don't get it - why would it get so blatent enough to be penalized.  Just seems a very dumb move by the coach.[/quote]

ok so you know nothing about tennis whatsoever but you think serena's coach is dumb for coaching her? unbelievable.[/quote]

Coaching her enough to get a game penalty?  That's not dumb?
Maybe you could go ahead and explain it to me.[/quote]

NP - let me try to explain it.  Coaches actually do this kind of thing ALL THE TIME.  The rule is rarely or at least inconsistently enforced, which is why Serena and her coach got so upset.  She felt that she was publicly called a cheater.  The irony is, she may not have even see his hand gesture.  He was suggesting she come in to the net more.  (Coincidentally?) she did and started winning some more points.

What the tennis association needs to consider is whether to get rid of the rule all together since it isn't enforced and coaches break the rule all the time, or start enforcing it consistently.  [/quote]
