They both playing well.

But if they meet in the final's, I will have to pick big sister Venus over her little sister.

Venus just seem's more focused.
Plus she alway's seem's to up her game at Wimbledon.

When she's healthy like she is now, Venus is hard to beat on those grass surfaces for some reason.

People are backtracking on Richard William's now.

Not letting Venus and Serena play every tournament on Earth when they were teenager's was the best thing that could have been done.

The only child star that started out with the William's sister's that's still playing is Devenport and she took the same route.

Hingas, Kourtnakova(sp?), etc., all burned out and broke down before the age of 22.

I'm thinking about following a somewhat similar strategy. My eleven year old daughter plays tennis and her coach insists she'll be ready for tournament play by the fall but I'm leaning toward waiting a few more years.

Kournakova didn't burn out, she just sucked (never won a tournament) and realized she could make more loot from her looks than the game.

I was trying to be nice but you are 100% correct.

I have never seen a person that got more press for their "fashion and Look's" than what they did on the court.

Thumb Up Thumb Down

I love when they are both in the finals because you know one of them will win. But I hate when they are both in the finals because it is boring as L. It's like watching paint dry.

My joy!

This is great for them but I am personally bored with those two tennis players, sadly. They do nothing to interest me in the sport.

Actually, Anna did win on the junior circuit. But when she got to the senior circuit, she did not win. I remember the criticism that Richard Williams got, especially from Chris Everett, when he held out his girls for the junior circuit. He allowed his girls to be kids, and they eventually became champions. I guess old Richard is not as crazy as they thought he was. Big Grin

Nope, he was wrong. They can only meet in the finals. Here's the official draw:

Don't hate on Kournikova. She did not suck, she just quit before her game fully matured. She was extremely talented, but she did not have the desire to endure hardship, and put in the necessary work to be successful.
