kinda makes u look at Serena Williams in a different light.. she saw racism and hate from all levels and forms.... and she didnt cry once.. just was the goat
We dont give Venus enough credit

She was #1 in the world and dealing with Bullshyt before Serena became what she became.

Serena 100% learned and saw what her sister dealt with to help her prepare.

I remember in the Movie they were freezing Venus out at like 14/15 in matches

Naomi would have a whole melt down if she had to deal with all that.

Paula Badosa can be marketable if she can make a run.


Like someone mentioned though Naomi Osaka has attained a level of tennis success few will ever see so she shouldn’t be down on herself.

All this shows me is how truly special you have to be to be an athlete at the top of their game.


It’s ALWAYS gonna be SOMETHING, but the strong tend to focus that energy into their play and it gets results…clown them all we want but Serena, LeBron, KD, Cam Newton all show how mentally tough you have to be as well as emotionally and physically…being an athlete at the top of your sport for years is a seriously tough thing to do…


All respect for the ones that do it and make it look easy, because as we see, it really isn’t…

Wish her the best but she doesn’t seem cut out for this
First mfer talking sense in this whole thread.

All the talent in the world but she doesn't have the personality or mindset for the non stop grind that it takes to be great year in year out for up to a decade plus


When she broke on the scene it was all of natural talent but when the rigours of the tour came she wasn't really into it

It's a shame because she's the kind of talent that should have been chasing down Serena's records potentially, she was trending poorly before it but it was truly a wrap when she got pregnant and opted to have the child, you just won't come back quite the same even if you're locked in

Heck of a career regardless but still a sense of unfulfilled potential.

She just knows what could've been

Between the mental health and being a baby mama to a fukking rapper, D list one at that, when you were #1 and the hottest topic in the sport at one point. It's eating her alive whatever it is is gone and she's not even 30

Her, Tiger, Serena really show how fragile a peak as an athlete can be. Yeah Tiger's wife was chasing him with some golf clubs, pick them shyts up nikka and get back to winning on Sunday. Except he never did. Serena cut her foot on some glass, she was just supposed to be out for a bit and she'd be fine, never came back as Serena. shyt's crazy

:jbhmm: I don’t think that’s right breh I remember post divorce, multiple news outlets were reporting on his game being back and he had multiple pga victories under his belt too. Don’t forget dude had multiple injuries torn acl, mcl, and back surgeries.

Tiger was juggling hoes like prime Earl Woods, holding down his family at home and winning like none of it fazed him. He was elite across the board and really, the media teasing him about having so many bĩtches started getting to him

medis saw him as so much of a herb that people couldn’t believe he was PAWGing on steroids like Jack Johnson

Winning the US Open may have been the worst thing for her because she had reached that high and struggling to get back to that level again. Shawty ain't even 30, she still has alot of living to do :salute:
