..and another for the Williams’ sisters
Filed Under Home, Luv it, Hate it
This year’s women’s tennis got a bit “sentimentally boring” (if there is such an expression). The Williams sisters faced each other (yet again!) at the finals, ensuring that at least the name Williams will be etched on that golden plate. Now, this is not the first time it has happened. They have played each other at the Wimbledon finals for the 3rd time now. The last time it happened, it was such a long time ago that most people thought that that was going to be it, its the end of the Williams’ era.
However, I guess they had other plans, they wanted back into the limelight. Personally, I thought we could perhaps see a new winner from somewhere else causing an upset. But that was not meant to be. Its back to the 2 of them. No one could really get rid of them so easily.
Perhaps the atmosphere at the court side is different. I mean with the excitement and prospect of watching veterans at play in real live, it must have been a different feeling. Something like this doesn’t happen everyday, does it? Veterans coming out and being on top of their game again. Its not like Sampras could now emerge and show off his skills for the fans once again. No, its long gone. So the fact that the Williams sisters have stuck it out, came back from injuries and put on their best for the people who paid an obscene amount of money, it must’ve been worth every penny.
As for me, like I said, I’ve watched them before and I thought they were boring and they were in fact still…boring. Nothing much has changed in terms of their outfits and tennis so…Then again, I watched it at home so the atmosphere isn’t the same. Unless of course, if I had the home theater system, complete with the home theater furniture, the feeling might just be a tad bit different.
