She's 37 years old and was playing a fearless kid with nothing to lose who was just crushing the ball. Her (Bianca) pep talk to herself when the second set went to 5 all was priceless -- just keep the god damn ball inside the court.

Serena may be the greatest individual athlete of them all but she really should just lose graciously and spare us the melodrama.
