Serena Williams Does Not Get Beat

June 5, 2007 by Larry Brown • Comments

She may lose matches, but she does not get beat. After losing to Justine Henin 6-4, 6-3 in the quarters of the French Open on Tuesday, Serena made like a typical Williams sister and failed to credit her opponent. Check out the sportsmanship oozing from Serena’s lips:

“All she had to do was show up,” Williams said. “I just pretty much stood back and let her take advantage of me.”

Responded Henin: “It’s her opinion. I thought I just did a good job. And I just see it from my point of view, and I did everything I could to control the match.”

Spoken like a true brat. Now you know why people around tennis dislike Serena. Think about it — it takes a world-class player and stellar performance to knock out the likes of Serena. But there she is diminishing the feat accomplished by Henin — “all she had to do was show up.” I repeat, Serena Williams does not get beat.
