[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish her well but I also wish she’d just stop playing until she’s ready to keep it together and compete again at a high level. It’s a rip-off for tennis spectators to pay hundreds of dollars for good seats and then have to watch a talented player worth tens of millions pout, act like a child, and check out of a match.

What a crock of bullshit.  Pro athletes are getting paid millions to entertain the people who buy tickets to see them perform or are willing to buy services or products endorsed by those athletes.

If you want to strip it down to competition for the mere sake of competition, fine, but then the ticket sales and sponsorships will dry up.  And it will make it that much harder for the pro tennis players who aren't in the top 150 to eke out a living.

No one really wants to find it painful to watch a tennis match when a player is constantly on the verge of losing it mentally.  [/quote]
