They have, but I think it's a weaker accusation. Look at her physical progression vs. Serena's. Night and day. If anything, Venus took some sort of HGH/steroid to combat the medical condition(s) she's dealt with.

Definitely agree. Behind Serena, there is an incredible amount of parity in women's tennis because the next crop of younger girls keep coming year after year. Sloane Stephens because the most recent up-and-comer that I can think of on the American side, with other, younger international players having an equal amount if not more success.

Women's golf has even had a lot of parody.
