Secrets of Sisterhood

Share via

Lisa Dillman’s article in the June 10 Times was interesting in that it shows a maturity on the part of the Williams sisters in dealing with the media.

That is nice to hear.

What no writer has addressed is the caliber of the final match of the French Open. If the No. 1 player in the world makes only one forehand winner and no backhand winners in 21 games of a match and the No. 1 and No. 2 players share 105 unforced errors, it seems to me the tennis-loving public was cheated.

If playing each other in a match makes these tennis players so nervous they can’t perform to a level that vaguely resembles their ability, maybe they shouldn’t enter the same tournaments.
