Because she has to have a mean mug when playing stronger players.
no she is never like this with other players and even exchange kisses with other top players a la Clijsters...she always has a mean mug against Serena now with Vee:puzzled

Venus should be serving and volleying, trying to shorten the rallies, imo

This match is in the 3rd set, going the distance.
Venus fighting break points...just lost the last one, Jie will serve for the match leading 5-3

Don't make good sense.. Zheng is a foot shorter than Venus and she is the aggressor who is attacking the net at certain times

Playing the power game doesn't seem to work with Zheng, she feeds off of it....

that's a shame Venus couldn't pull that match out. Zheng sure didn't offer Vee any sugar at the net:mad:

Zheng is a non factor and will not win anything at 30yrs..at least Serena owns her:snigger

What more did you want? It was a respectful hand-shake, with nice eye-contact.

Oh well.....great try Venus.

Yeah, she gave it her best, but couldn't get it done. I'm sorry she lost. I've always loved Venus.

But congrats to Zheng. That was quite a battle in the third.

Hey.. I was just responding to Tossip mentioning that Zheng offers sugar to all the other opponents but not the sisters.. I could care less
