Just that. I think they're fantastic sportswomen and every commentary on every game seems to make out that they are the bogey man/woman fighting against the delicate flower on the other side of the net.

i havent rtt, bit just wanted to say how much I love the Williams sisters. They put up with so much racism, left right and centre court, and yet they still manage to rise above it. I don't worry about them though, I dont thinkm they sit at home worrying. I think they know they are trailblazers, and role models, and seem to have such inner strength somehow (wish I had it). And I think if anything that annoys the rascists even more. And the rascists are the minority.

Awesome girls.
