@svichky Ok, calm down, yes I've watched Serena, I'm not a tennis rookie..I was responding to some other idiot on here & became defensive & just attacked every angle, obviously Serena is awesome, but this person shit all over Seles, so I felt the need to defend her game, we went back & forth, u know how it goes..anyway I've watched tennis for years, & Mary Carillo is the 1 who said that they're technique is poor, on more than 1 broadcast..perhaps you should educate yourself a litte more

@jmfeeney1 what a bunch of crap. i mean, i love them both - serena and monica, but have u ever even watched serena?! cause u sound either like a tennis rookie or someone who's delusional to say that serena won her matches based only or mostly on her athleticism?!! bad technique?! jesus...
-
@100BABOLAT Thanks man, finally someone w/a brain :) If you read the comments I was just trying to make a very simple point, but some ppl just don't get it. Serena always relied on her pure athleticism to win matches, that's why she & her sister are injured all of the time, because they're lazy, & they have poor technique, but they are, however, prob the best pure athletes tennis has ever seen. Put Seles in her prime w/her lazer consistency/power/angles against ball sprayer Serena, who wins??

@chrissen1 Mary Joe playing good is still easy for all the big guns to beat. Other than a fluke win over a 15 year old Seles she has never beaten Graf, Navratilova, Evert, Seles, or Hingis, even though she got the benfit of playing Evert and Martina well into their 30s. She is a glorified journeywomen who was continually overhyped by the U.S tennis media and is now undeservedly holding posts with ESPN (where she is awful) and as Fed Cup captain where she also is doing terrible.

@jmfeeney1 I totally agree...Serena is a great player but look at the joke of women's tennis...you have 3 players (Wozniacki, Jankovic, Safina...number with no GS). This never ever ever happened in the past....now what was that comment from Serenakickass (should read Serenawatchout forthebrokenglassonthefloor)..
..Put Navratilova on the grass courts that were fast in the 80s and she would teach Serena a thing or two about grass court tennis....and 1992 Seles would thrash Serena on clay. -
@serenakicksass I wish I could say something more, but honestly, you're just too fucking stupid & thickheaded to even admit that at least 1 thing I said rang true to you. You're just a douchebag with no perspective. Yes, having one's sister get murdered is tragic, but, Serena was able to have a refuge on the court, get it. Look, I do like Serena, for the record, I just wish you wouldn't suck her on her tits. And I'm not in a time warp, I love today's players, watch them all of the time.

wow, mary joe wasnt bad back in the day...i didnt like her at all then lol
she was pretty smart on the court...all court player, she had power too
-
@chrissen1 yes Federer at his career peak would never win Wimbledon, lose a slam final 6-2, 6-1, never beat his main rival on a medium or faster surface, and have losses to every other player in the top 6 in their best year ever.

Graf and Seles fans need to get out of their time warp. They are the past and the game has moved on . Serena does virtually everything better than both. Atleast Graf fans can point to her titles (inflated by her mostly weak ass competition including her historic Grand Slam against grandma Chris and Martina and flakey underachiever Sabatini) but Seles fans cant even do that, just a bunch of would have, could have, fantasies.
-
@jmfeeney1 LOL at a Seles fan calling another player fat. That is like Dementieva making fun of someone elses serve. Serena thinks she is the queen of tennis since she is. She has won more slam titles and been on top longer than anyone since Steffi Graf, and she didnt win most of her titles by beating up on 30 something year old women or moonballers like Sanchez like Graf did.
Wow thanks for uploading, I'm loving all your highlights. I'm only 24 so I never got to see the early Seles matches, just the ones after the stabbing. The rivalries she had with Graf, Sabatini, Capriati, Sanchez, etc. are so fun to watch. Its amazing to see how much more Seles rallied as a youngster, she knew she could hang in there physically so she waited for the perfect opportunity to blast a winner, great to see.
