I am also not a fan of the Williams' sisters because of everything beanpeanut said. Look, you make a TON of money playing a game. Be gracious, be kind, be thankful. That's all.
I'm actually not a fan of tennis at all. I worked for the USTA in 1997 and all I will say is they are a horrible organization. I could have blown the whistle on some really nasty things that were actually stupidly put into a memo that I found but I chose to quit instead. Diane

l believe this thread was posted to inform anyone (regardless of being a fan or not!) about a tennis player giving birth.
Now, as a known quote say: "if you have nothing nice to say, it is better to not state anything! Political correctness, sarcasm or snarkiness is not synonymous to being kind! The term 'Double standards' can easily be found on google. 'a rule or principle which is unfairly applied in different ways to different people or groups'. |

Anyone who starts a thread can't control its direction. There have been countless threads here on VF about specific instructors that were begun by the instructor's fan, only to have things get hissy because people who aren't fans chime in. Serena's a public figure, as are video instructors. You might not like it that people who aren't fans of Serena have posted on this thread, but they are free to state their opinion. Not every thread has to be a love fest.
