Doubt Madison wins if she let's Serena take away this first set.

Good fight by Madison... came down to a few points here and there. That 5-3 return on Serena's 2nd serve though... had her shot...

Keys with 2 aces. She still has to go down for #19 though.

And Shriver needs to stop acting like Serena has never faced a big hitter lol. I hate her!

Keys plays with tons of heart
,can't wait to see how she turns out. Already pretty damn good at 19. Looks like her and Genie are the future of womens tennis once the Williams' retire.

Good job, good effort Keys but you had to sacrifice yourself for the greater good.

Respect to Keys I like her way better than Stephens
Atleast she's going out with pride

Just posted this in the main forum but figured I'd repost here as well...
been on these forums for a minute and never used them much but better late than never. i'm playing tennis for my hgh school right now and need to buy some decent shoes for it cause the courts tore the **** out of some old free 3.0s i dug out. i wanna stay lookin fresh though cause, you know, why not. I'm eyeing the Air Max Bo Jax (these ones)
but I want to make sure they're a decent shoe for tennis -- i'm not incredibly good, so it's not like I'm at the level that truly top of the line shoes makes a difference. If they're not, what shoes would people recommend for tennis that are still fly?
Thanks in advance

Man finally it's over
,Keys definitely made Serena her work for it a lot more than she would've expected.

You think so? The Air Tech Challenges were made for tennis, and they seem to have a reasonably similar construct...

Good match though. Lets hope Keys can be the next American star in the future.

What happened to Sloane Stephens?
She beat Serena in the Australian like two years ago, but then I haven't heard much of her since. I thought after that run in Melbourne she'd be on the map for good.

They were made for tennis 20 years ago. You'll get laughed off the court in those Bo Jacksons in this day and age.

Sloane was American sports media created hype. Serena was noticeably injured and couldn't serve at all in that match. She wouldn't retire because she's a champion. Sloane is a diva who has 0 titles and 0 reasons to act the way she does.

Honestly don't even find her that good,Serena was hurt back then iirc. She hasn't been consistent since then and keeps crashing out early at tourneys. She had way more hype than warranted, the media was looking for that next great American woman to replace Serena but it's definitely not her imo.What happened to Sloane Stephens?Keys plays with tons of heart,can't wait to see how she turns out.

Maddy Keys on the other hand seems to be the real deal

Madison showed more heart down 1-5 than Sloane has shown her entire career. Sloane is a clown that started running her mouth thinking she was awesome but her mouth wrote checks her game couldn't cash.
