You know, fans can have goals for tournaments, too. It's not just for the athletes! So, my goal for this tournament, which came over me very suddenly this morning, is acceptance. That's right. No more will I allow the gloating fans, the crazy smack talk, or the turning up at Slams out of nowhere and destroying my favourites to bother me. Dude, I got other shit to do. I got books to read. So, feel the Serena love. I even watched the match! Well... as much of it as TTC showed. I guess a blowout is no fun no matter who's playing.
Anyway, Serena looked good. Not that anyone could possibly have expected her to have any trouble with Aleks Wozniak. There were some points that Aleks played really really well, and even more that she... didn't. A clay court specialist she is not, bless.
Serena's starting to find her shots and solidify her movement, so her game is (as usual) getting more secure as the tournament progresses. There's not much else to say except that the farther she goes in any given tournament, the more likely she is to win it. Serena in tennis tournaments is the complete opposite of the concept of "half life". Double life? Is there such a thing? Help a girl out, science peeps. And also, this picture cracked my shit up:
