Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 16, 2022 Members Share Posted May 16, 2022 Australian WTA player Destanee Aiava. I remember when she first hit the Tour, I found her fun to watch. I’m glad she is still here and I hope she gets all the help and support she needs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 17, 2022 Members Share Posted May 17, 2022 Tennis hasn’t been a winning investment in about a decade now. Why would Serena or Venus or anyone invest in a sport that pretends rigid adherence to 100 year old rules for some while making up rules, seemingly on the fly for others? At least in Women’s soccer, where Osaka and Williams are team owners, the possibilities to carve out rules from a new league exist. And in tennis there is little solidarity and even the WTA seems to do more to hold up Eurocentric male patriarchy than anything else. Tennis is a mess. Serena, and in particular, Venus has done all she can to reform the sport. Maybe BJK can ask the current stars to put in the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor is a good instructor though. I did not think that Normani would be able to coordinate the toss and hit the serve on her first attempt. I think she even hit the serve over the net! https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1191073904993122 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted May 20, 2022 Members Share Posted May 20, 2022 Add the WTA...no points. Fans are wondering what that means for last years points...do they come off...stay?? What a mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 21, 2022 Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 Are we still taking rankings seriously in tennis? And now, as with pandemic protocols, each major will be a law unto themselves. Speaking of things that seem illogical, I gagged when I read this.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 21, 2022 Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 Which part? The no points? Neither Venus nor Serena have retired officially. I could see both doing a mini tour, like they did in Africa,(with a stop in Jamaica) years ago, as a goodbye. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted May 21, 2022 Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 Venus in the mattress business too! I was watching TPIR and in the showcase showdown they showed a bedroom set by Venus Williams. Please register in order to view this content .

Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 21, 2022 Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 She also has a mineral sunscreen for face/body (I am thinking of trying). Quite a number of companies. Interestingly enough, all of her companies fit within the profile of non-toxic, eco friendly and health conscious products. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fevuh Posted May 22, 2022 Members Share Posted May 22, 2022 I’m high but I meant the part about their last match possibly being in KY. I didn’t know that. If that ends up being the last one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
