OT: Serena vs Sloane at US Open

[j66kicker]

You have a better chance of going out on the field by yourself to face the New England Patriots and winning than you do beating Father Time. No matter who, the day comes when you are a half step slower, one MPH slower with your fastball, or a half second late blocking a punch. Should you quit? Some stay for the love of the sport, to remain a part of it. Others because they can still get paid for their name. I think that we, as fans, prefer to see those we follow in sports go out on top.

Unless you’re Curt Schilling and your fastball increases by 3 mph when you’re 38 years old (ahem...)

With Serena not making the final, and if one of the Williams sisters doesn’t make the French Open final in singles or doubles, 2020 will be the first year since 1996 that a Williams sister wasn’t in a major final of single, doubles or mixed doubles. That’s insane.
