I suppose no one has ever heard of a young woman named Serena Williams?

Serena is obviously great. Probably greatest women's player of all time. However, in the last 4 grand slams, she has only won one (2016 Wimbledon). She's right there, but probably falls short in this years ballot.
 
Not sure how they decided the winner, probably a combination of expert panel, fan votes, etc.
Wouldn't it be interesting though if it were UCONN fan votes from this board that pushed Stewie over the top?
I guess we'll never know, but it must have been a very close vote.
Congratulations Stewie!
 
Popularity votes are nice if you win--but if you don't you know it's all about numbers not abilities, talent, exceptional athletism.

Like MLB. Since they changed to fan voting the all-star team is meaningless.

One GS title; two GS runner-up appearances; one GS semifinal. For any other player, those are amazing results in the last four GS titles. For Serena, however, it is not her usual standard that we have come to expect since 2012.

And I agree she probably falls short in this year's ballot. But she has still had an amazing year.
