German motivated by conversation with Steffi Graf as Serena Williams fails to win four majors in a year again
Damn that complete failure Williams. Seriously, failing to win four majors in a year? Again?

A serial under-achiever!
I’m aiming for the same level of underachievement
Err. She lost the us open so there was no chance of 4 in a row at this one!!
I’ve often thought that matches involving Serena resemble a small child trying to wrestle a grizzly bear.
It’s always surprising when the small child wins.
@AndrewC:
Yet in the flesh she’s not as big as you expect. The first time I went to Wimbledon I was wandering round the outside courts and saw a black woman practicing with a large crowd watching. From a distance I thought that the thin, lanky player must be Venus. It wasn’t until I got closer that I realised it was Serena.
Same with Nadal – looks an absolute monster but up close he is actually pretty slender.
Whereas when I occasionally go to rugby I am always amazed at the size of the players: if anything they look smaller on TV.
