You could say the same thing about michael jordan or kobe tho too lol
How many finals games did Kobe or Jordan get kicked out of for threatening to kill the line judge (ref). How many finals did kobe or Jordan get kicked out of for cheating?

I'm just going to suggest that you're not very good at making my arguments for me, and even worse at putting words in my mouth

I like being me, you do you :)
My apologies mate. Didn't mean it as a personal attack, just typing away feverishly. That whole argument/debate about individual athletes on team sports winning championship to determine who's better is just ludicrous IMO, especially in hockey or football, when you're off the ice/field for over half the game!

Back on topic. It's interesting that many state that Graf had it easy because of the Seles attack, yet she had a winning record before the attack and more importantly was 3-1 vs Seles during her two best years, yet no one mention Serena's fortune that her main rival Henin retired early, despite being a year younger than Serena. Henin before her contemplating retirement/retirement was 6-6 vs Serena, 4-2 in grand slams vs Serena. She beat her in three straight grands slams in 2007 on three different surfaces the year before she retired! She had 7 slams to Serena's 8 when she retired. More importantly she was ranked number for 117 weeks to Serena's 57 weeks!! In 2008 her head was no longer in the game, took a break then retired and asked the WTA to remove her from the rankings despite being ranked number 1 for over a year! Strange turn of events.

Under the lights, Flushing Meadows 2nd round

40 yr old Serena up a break in the 3rd set Vs the #2 seed, LOL. Does she have gas in the tank to hold on?

agreed. For context, she has played 6 matches ytd comin in. She is not a competitive palyer anymore, this is cameo appearance to say goodbye. She beat the # 2 ranked in the world, lol. She was +215. Dont think she'll be that big a dog again, lol .
