Billie Jean King beat an over the hill, washed up semi-pro in Bobby Riggs.
Sure she did. Just a few months before his match with King, Riggs actually played the #1 ranked women's tennis player in the world and beat the shite out of her.
quote:
Riggs first challenged Billie Jean King, but when she declined, Margaret Court stepped in. At the time Court was 30 years old and the top female player in the world. On the day of their match, May 13, 1973, 5000 fans came to Mother's Day match in Ramona, California. Bobby Riggs came out on court and presented Margaret Court with Mother's Day flowers; which she accepted and curtsied.[3] During the match, Riggs used his drop shots and lobs to keep Court off balance. His 6–2, 6–1 victory[4] landed Riggs on the cover of both Sports Illustrated and Time magazine. [5][6]

Does anyone really think that McEnroe wouldn't beat Serena after seeing the way that Vinci used her slices, off-pace shots, and drop shots to beat Serena yesterday? And considering that almost a third of Sereena's GS matches this year have gone to third sets with so many average tiered players, why would anything think that Serena would just blast McEnroe?

You realize Riggs threw the match right?
