Fowler also said Serena has 21 sets that were 6 - 0 this year

and was 118 - 6 since last year.

But since he got one stat wrong .............

In the post match interview with Shriver, Serena couldn't remember

how many doubles GS titles She and Venus have. Pam told her it was 14.

You know you're having a Hall of Fame career when ... you can't remember how many doubles GSs you've won. It's impossible for me to wrap my mind around having had that level of success.

lol................She also said the other day that She didn't

even know where all of her trophys were.


When infornmed that IW had removed her name from the winners

list a few years ago She did reveal that She used that trophy

to keep misc. junk in.

Is that true, did IW remove her name from the list of winners?

After the WTA made IW one of the mandatory premiers, still Serena does not
play there. We know the story of why. Can any one tell me as to what
consequences she suffers for not playing in IW other than just getting a 0
pts in a mandatory tourney. Looks like she is getting away with almost
no consequence. Can somebody explain to me the list of other consequences,
if any.

Am I alone in feeling that Sloane is getting excessive share of Arthur Ashe assignment
even allowing for her being an american this being USO? She is scheduled for AA again
tommorrow.

Tossip,
They both look a little slow to me. Like they have lead in their shoes.

I guess they needed to drop that opening set in order to get going. Up 5-0 in the 2nd.

I think Venus is trying to make-up for not closing out Zheng yesterday.

What is Serena wearing? This outfit looks like the thing Vika was wearing in Cinci. That top is unflattering, but Nike is persistent I suppose.

I don't think you are going to see Serena at her best in doubles until the later rounds if they make it that far. I think Venus is going to have to carry the early rounds if she wants hardware. I think Serena has singles on the brain. She also has a lot of tennis to play in a short period of time, and it may only get worse if any more weather delays.
