@ifluvinguiswrong Now the women's transitions as of late have been rocky...basically since the emergence of Graf.
Seles was supposed to be to Graf what Nadal is to Federer, then maybe someone else would have come seemingly out of nowhere (like Djokovic) to raise the Graf-Seles bar a tad bit higher
Gaps in transition such as this create too much confusion in the game plans of players, thinking too much about a possible window of opportunity and failing to rise to the occasion.

@ifluvinguiswrong I know what you mean...I think that's more so due to the fact that women's tennis is TRYING to go through a transition...and I say trying because it's taking too long. The men went through it already...2004-2010 range. Starting with Federer, then Nadal matching Federer's level in a different style. then Djokovic combining these two styles to raise the level AGAIN...these three unintentionally shaped the way the men's game has to be played for quite some time

@QuadThreat85 I haven't disagreed with you. I just don't like 45 minute matches or 20 minute sets, which you too often see on the women's tour where one woman throttles the other. That's just how I see it.

@ifluvinguiswrong The close-minded sports buffs prefer it to be just about the sport itself...with little to no emotion...that's boring. What the women do on the court does sell tickets...and anyone whose mad at them for being able to do it are jealous.
And I stand by my point about the women being able to last: Schiavone, Kuznetsova, Serena, Venus, Clijsters, Li, Pennetta, Stosur, Jankovic, Zheng, Petrova, Medina Garrigues....that's just alot of the "older" ones...the list goes on.

@ifluvinguiswrong I agree somewhat...the women should play 5 sets at GS as well...then we'll really see whose mentally and physically worthy....I think a great deal of the women can do it actually. If they can last 2 hours+ in their best of threes, then they can for sure play best of five...the others would have to find a way to keep up...it'd be exciting.
On the other hand...I like drama in sports (and MANY others do)....and it's obvious that the women win that battle hands down.

I've always liked Dinara, but the commentator said it all @ 2:39...classic.

ROGER HAD no competition 'till Nadal and Djoker came along...williams sisters had competition (Davenport, Hiingis, Henin, Clijsters, Capriati, Sharapova) but they still beat their competition with regularity - DONT BLAME THE PLAYERS, BLAME THE GAME! COZ OF THE WILLIAMSES, WOMEN'S TENNIS HAD MORE TV RATINGS THAN MEN'S, WERE ALSO SELLING MORE TIX....so cut your crap....WILIAMS SISTERS ARE ABSENT LEVEL OF PLAY HAS DROPPED AND PEOPLE ARE BACK TO MEN'S TENNIS!

@ifluvinguiswrong You pay to see a tennis match. And that's exactly what you get. Everyone knows that a tennis match could end right after the first 3 games. You're not paying for the time you spend there. But I have my opinion and you have yours. I can respect that.
your highlights are amazing. keep it up
