Womens Tennis has just got a lot worse for me. Serena Williams at the US Open was pretty much a disgrace to Womens Tennis after being defaulted from her semi-final against Kim Clijsters. Here is the incident and the after match interview. Whats your thoughts?
On Saturday after the Wimbledon womens final Serena Williams flew back to the USA to do an interview on David Letterman. It would have been nice to see the top players stick around until Sunday night and head to the Wimbledon Ball. However, here is a video of Serena on Letterman.
Over the years Elena Dementieva has received a lot of stick about her serve. Here is quite a fun video of Dementieva serving. I dont think she actually did this first go, but maybe over the series of several hours!
This has to be one of the funniest videos I have seen in a while. It is a scream off between Maria Sharapova and Michelle Larcher De Brito. I simply find all this screaming very over the top and it also kind of makes me wonder what type of noises these girls make when having sex.
There has been a lot of talk in the last few days about Maria Sharapova and her return to the tour. Sharapova played yesterday in her first match in over 8 months at the Warsaw Open in Poland. Maria played Tathiana Garbin and won the match 6-1 6-7 (6) 6-3.
I must admit it is great to see Maria back on court and winning tennis match. However, that being said should she really get this much hype? She is a very good player and I’m sure she will return to the top of the women’s game, but I feel that she now seems to be more of a celebrity than a tennis player.
Additionally, it just completely drive me nuts that she can scream and make so much noise on court. Grunting seems to happen when players get tired on court and they put more and more effort into the shots, and most of the time they don’t even know they are doing it. However, with Maria is seems to be very loud, completely over the top, it starts from the beginning of the matches, and I’m sure she knows and deliberately does it!
Here we go for some hilarious moments of tennis.
Let’s start with the famous match between John McEnroe and Bjorn Borg:
