there were so many great players in the late 90's early 2000's. from hingis,graf,vicario,seles,kournikova,hingis,serena,venus,cap riati,davenport,pierce,martinez,henin,mauresmo,and clijsters
damn all these women have disappeared besides the williames. for the sake of the sport i hope some fresh blood comes along cause i get very bored watching ivanovic, kuznetsova, sometimes jankovic as the top players : (. Where have besides the williames and sharapova where have all the great rivalries gone?!!!!!!!!!
vosharap how dare you put KOURNIKOVA in the list? you make people laff if nothing else. MARTINEZ???? all she had was being able to reach the semis of tournaments when the depth of the womans game sucked. trussme everyone says todays womans game lacks depth... during the times of graf seles and vicario the depth sucked so fucking much they alwayswon 0 and 1 in the 1st 4 rounds. only later did this change when the williams sisters the depth got better.hingis was lucky as no one was around in 1997.
why would venus have thrown this match?? it's not like she had already won the french open. she is looking to win this grand slam also! every player can be beaten. there'sno player out there with a perfect record, so why do assumptions have to be made just because they are sisters?
maybe she felt bad for her baby sis...maybe she thought that she would have much more chances...she always says she puts her sister first before anyone else
Venus can wop Serena at her best and badly. 2008 you should see his, cause Serena has made her accomplishments, soetimes at the expense of her Venus so look out. Venus is hungrier than ever now and she probably feels she has something to prove. She might just dominate little sis in 08.
Venus IMO gave this match away. Venus was up 5-3 or 5-2 in that 1st set and simply did not put Serena away. Venus can indeed beat an "on-form Serena", it's just mentally Venus is conflicted always when playing Serena. She wants too much the best for Serena even when playing her for big titles.
I agree. Venus can beat Serena in Serena's best form. The problem and edge Serena has is that Venus gets tight easily and her flawed technique makes her suffer like in the Australian open 2003. Serenas mechanics are better and thats the only reason she can still run out a win inspite of behing behind . Venus' technique is very flawed although she is otherwise a better palyer than serena.
Venus tightens up toooo much when she is on the brink of victory against Serena.,.. Serena never tightens up usually .. thats the only edge Serena has because of which she wins.. else Venus is better than Serena
Venus didnt give anything away. Serena just is and always will be the better player.

No one can match an on-form Serena. Not even Venus can. I just hope she gets back to that form in 2008, she could win more than one 1 grand slam!!!

this is ridiculous.
how would venus give up of so many historical matches, just for serena??
venus has trashed serena before, and after serena's good phase..
venus wouldn't be so stupid.. she wanted thoses titles, she couldn't get it because serena was better
