It can still happen. We have all seen her drop matches she should win. It's as close to a lock (in the finals) as I have ever seen, but I would never put money on either Williams sister. You never really know what you're going to get out of them.

As I said in earlier post, Fed got me above my pay off amount. i have been the victim of the William's flop when she dogged the US Open final against Stosur. I'm not playing it, but like her on grass versus An opponent that lacks weapon to take the offensive against her. That's why they play the game . . .

Women's tennis is much more flukey. Mat be because the serve isn't as big of a weapon. May be because of other monthly fluctuations. I just know there isn't as much of an Alpha male pecking order that makes betting men's tennis so much more predictable.
There are scenarios where Serena loses. See, e.g. That BS performance against Stosur in the US open final. Here mind and her serve seem to be in a much better place now.
Still like Fed and Serena and if didn't jeopardize my collection, I'd be on it.

Well, shite, she foot faulted. Funny that her shoe manufacturer didn't turn this into a Tiger chips in at the Masters marketing opportunity.

My thought about "realistic" is that Radwanska is just like Hingis but not as good. Hingis got put out of business when she couldn't handle the power of the Williams. Perhaps Rad diffused power a little better than Hingis did, but the surface and differential in serves is too much to overcome.
They have met twice (albeit 4 years ago), but Rad has only won 4 games per match.

Serena is going to break this chick.

I know she is a colossal bitch, but as an athlete, you have to give Serena some respect.
Her schedule has been ridiculous with the daily rain and she could have easily told Venus to frick off when it came to doubles, instead she would play a match every day and even sometimes twice a day.
After this she goes straight to the doubles final.

not looking like she's going to be a bit drained from the final at all. she's running all over this foreigner like a damn steamroller. if serena wasn't such a head case, she may have been the best women's tennis player ever.

Epic choke job in the second. Was one point away from going up 5-2.

Who is the smoking hot chick in radwanska's cheering section? She looks like someone that I can't place exactly, a hotter keri russell

Respect to Serena for what? Winning in one of the worst era's of women's tennis? Doing it acting like a colossal bitch on top of it?
She deserves no respect. The women's game deserves no respect today either. They are all mental midgets.

Do you troll everything?
ETA: I respect her athletic ability. Even Chris Everett is saying her serve is better than half of the men in the tournament.

Not trolling. The bitch deserves zero respect. And she is NOT in the conversation of best ever. Not close.
One of the dumbest things ever said.

Maybe so
I fricking hate Serena but I respect her as a player and a competitor.
She's the Lebron James of women's tennis except with more titles.

Seriously some dumb shite
i think he meant it more that she's being called the best ever because of people's short sightedness.
i don't think anyone who knows tennis thinks she's in the convo for best ever.
