Venus comes to the rescue--Serena Williams and Venus US doubles '09 interview

[Vhsmith37]

Holy crap! That rally was insane!

[ARZ1987]

Love Venus' WHAT THE HELL look at Patrick!

[EssinoDub]

AWESOME

[ErinAlexis86]

The interview notwithstanding, it was a really good and competitive final; well-played by both teams. Patrick should've stayed on topic. That was very unprofessional of him. I watched this live and was like "what's his problem?"

In this exact tournament, Federer went off on Jake Garner while everyone could hear him over Hawkeye of all things. He didn't get nearly as much bad press; not even a warning. He's done that twice too; think back at Wimbledon 2007. It's such a double standard.

[Trent689]

Patrick's a diq head that's why he has a miserable career like Clijsters. The most majors Clijsters will ever win is 5 by getting free gifts from line judges like Capriati did.

[joeypapas3]

dam, Patrick just got owned. very classy, very classy:)

[thecrashpit]

i just gotz three lil words for venus, 'you go girl', you & lil sis r two'z th best they iz.

[IRunLA69]

V. Williams def. P. McEnroe 6-0 6-0.

[milot1masha]

Venus is a legend. Thats how you stand up for your sister :)

[MrZweliBee]

Love what Venus did!! Patrick is a tool! On court interviews are about the match!

[olaraay]

big sister to the rescue xx

[JamieOwen03]

jesus christ, they have just won a doubles major and no question about the match!! ridiculous, Patrick STFU and stay in your brother's shadow.

[todik]

wow venus she's amaizing good big sister

[cestmoi974]

Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait les sous-titres en Français ou alors expliquer ce qu'ils disent en Français ? Parce que je n'ai pas tout compris :s

[davidlesli]

@cestmoi974

au fait, patrick mc enroe demande à serena 3 fois d'une manière implicite si elle n'a pas appris qqch depuis le match d'hier (sachant que la veille il y a eu le scandale en demi-finale contre clijsters). serena lui répond qu'elle est heureuse que ses fans la supporte et qu'elle ait pu gagner le titre au double.

patrick insiste, le public le hue et venus intervient: "Patrick, je crois que ce que le public veut te dire c'est: Passons à autre chose!" Euphorie.

[cestmoi974]

@davidlesli Ha d'accord merci beaucoup ! C'est beaucoup plus compréhensible comme ça mdr ! ++

[emmyjo720]

Would Patrick have been such an arse to his brother, his brother who made is as famous for his temper and his tennis? Is it different if it is a woman that loses her temper? Nice save Venus..

[aa330]

@emmyjo720 Exactly! Of all people, he should know when NOT to talk about a player's outburts. I love John McEnroe, but he was a terrible sport and a jerk to umpires and linespeople. Serena apologized and paid every fine they gave her. Move on!

[LoveMissyElliott]

I don't speak English very well I don't understand, what was patrick's question and what venus answered ?

[petunia0809]

Venus is such a great sister! OMG TO PATRICK! Why does he still continue to ask question about the incident happened during the semi finals! That is just so unprofessional!

[snobsonpycat]

Patrick, when get you feel the pressure of getting into the Semi-Final of the US Open, then have an opinion. Also, when you win 12 Grand Slams Singles Titles, then have an opinion. GET OVER IT, it was months before the Australian Open and she is good for tennis.

Serena's thinking the same thing she thought in reference to Mary Carillo:

"I think I've had a little more effect on tennis history than she has," said Williams. "I'm pretty excited about that."

BRAVO WILLIAMS SISTERS

[dextha1042]

well said

[whitfieldmusic1]

@snobsonpycat lol where is that video at where serena says that about mary carillo, i would love to see that

[davidlesli]

une belle gifle des deux côtés.

[nunchakued]

that guy is an ass. it's about time we all move on from THAT incident. serena probably didn't think it would get out of hand like it did, i mean it's tennis if you're not playing well, you sometimes flare up. not to mention that the linesperson wrongly accused her of foot fault on 2 accounts. i would be pissed. . anyone would be too.

[emmyjo720]

@nunchakued Does anyone think if it had happened to Federer, Roddick or Murray they wouldn't have gone nuts? Federer did shout and swear at the umpire in that tournament, he go little bad press. Mary Carillo and Patrick McEnroe seem to be catering to the audience that just think women shouldn't speak out of turn. Did Johny ever apologise to the umpire or his opponent? Serena did publically and privately.

[goebels99]

P. McEnroe has none of the class of his brother, which is something I never thought I would ever say about J. Mc. Did he think he was going to make a name for himself by attempting to "grill" Serena? Lol. Good save Venus!!

[JDIRecordsInc]

patrick mcenroe of all people, with his dick brother john mcenroe, shouldn't have brought up the incident.

but venus put him in his place - way to go!!

such a double (no pun intended) standard, mcenroe berates officials for years and gets rewarded with a job as a tv commentator. but serena gets a record fine for one incident - go figure?

[emmyjo720]

@JDIRecordsInc Absolutely agree and have been arguing that point.. And also Jimmy Connors who has to hate is opponent, was worse than Mac, rude to the spectators and he was just a "Tiger"....Neither of them had racist comments to deal with, People argue that Mc never berated linesman but he did, I saw him do it. Serena rarely even questions calls, others use Hawk Eye as a delaying tactic, she doesn't.

[aldosea]

venus is soooo smart..I`ve always thought that she is so sweet..serena is more as a fighter and venus is the protector..

[Keitherton3000]

Way to try and ruin their winning moment, Patrick! Not only is he ruining it for Serena but for Venus as well who had nothing to do with the issue. Can't a couple of sisters just enjoy winning the doubles these days?

[IsidroJoe]

leave it to big sis to stick up for the younger sibling!!!! LOL I love V

[mjlover23]

good save venus!

[vpg1111]

P. McEnore has always been a tool. I can't stand listening to his biased commentary.

[JordanjamesX]

Well done Venus she always stands up for her younger sister! Venus is a good big sister!

[P3T3RPAN91]

BAHAHAHAhahahahahahahahahahaha­haha....omg fckn funny....fckn Patrick is a dick for bringing that up when its DOUBLES FINALS!!!!! he's a dick lol

[gettomeng]

That's my Venus. :)

[najwakaram1000]

hahahahahahahah love venus soo much shes such a softy but when it comes to her little sister serena no one messes with her bitches they should fire taht guys ass

[Tub87]

Great big sister.

[emmamuzoora]

Thank you Venus for shutting up that Idiot!!! You truly are the "big sister"!

[DIANAROSS4EVER]

Patrick is idiot

[laffytaffygreen]

Yes!! I LOVE them. They shut it down!!!

[dc3fan2003]

I agree...Pat's behavior and tact was classless. Thank you Venus for putting him in his place.

[Blakmajik78]

I'm glad Venus shut his ass up. He of all people should know that he didnt have any right to try to grill Serena about loosing her temper as much as his brother John bitched on the court. I hate it when people run things into the ground or take things and completely run with it. This is going to make Serena and Venus take no prisoners in 2010...it always happens when they go through some drama with the WTA. They are LEGENDS..and will continue to be the measuring stick of Womens Tennis!

[NehemiahsMusic1]

[NehemiahsMusic1]
