They gave her a huge group hug when she walked out, in case you missed it. They remember last year, and the crowd was incensed last year at the end. I've seen Serena live at the USO at least 4 times. Trust me, she's massively popular in NYC.
That was nice..I think last year she was struggling with postpartum depression.This year she is a bit better..

I can't watch Madison's match as I have a dentist appointment....check the score when I get home.

Hopefully Serena's form can continue,Venus also impressed me in her match as well.

Serena just needs a cap to go w/ that graduation gown. LOL
You are hilarious, because that's exactly what it looks like. A cheap graduation gown. Uncharacteristic miscalculation by her/her stylist. Something more like a swing coat would have been better. With more weight.

I won't watch Madison's match willingly. When I was there last year, she played the 2nd match of the night session and I left and went back to the hotel. :lulz2:

Venus kicked ass. And Barty got over the initial nerves and prevailed.

¿Por qué? You don't like Keys?

Wasn't even going there, though most people in the know realize who has long been the most suspicious men's star. It's just that uninformed people think that PED's make a small difference when the truth is an average talent can become a dominant force on them.
Cameo appearance from you on the WTA forums?

I've posted on the WTA forums before. I can express my disgust for Sugarpova :)
Absolutely, fair-weather fan. Forgive me for presuming on your ulterior motives. As if, right? Not like you didn't watch the match or comment on it. #captainobvious B-)

How am I a fair weather fan? I'm just hoping for her to retire as soon as possible.

It was more competitive than the score line looked. And far more interesting than the pre-game show, btw.

I did see the match (except for the last three games). The only competitive moment that I saw was when Serena was little behind in a game in second set and came back to consolidate it (especially with a backhand passing shot).

Rena vs Pova:

You have to back to the 20’s and 30’s for a more lopsided “rivalry” between Champions; aka Helen Wills Moody (19 Majors) and Helen Jacobs (5 Majors).
