Serena claims 60th title with win over injured Errani in Rome
Sunday, May 18, 2014 /by AP


This was the header for the article announcing Serena's

win of the Rome title on Tennis.com


" That was so disrespectful "


Was this throwing shade at Serena's win saying Sara would have

won or played better had she not been injured. ( Serena beat her

6 - 0 6 - 1 in their last meeting on red clay with no injuries )


Why mention Sara's injury in the headline and not mention Serena's

which was the same, a thigh injury.


Many accuse Serena fans of making excuses when we bring up

injuries when Serena loses because of one. ( Never see articles

saying a player beat an injured Serena even tho that is mostly

the reason when she loses ). For years after it is talked about

as an epic victory for the player who won vs an " injured Serena "

RJD - you are asking for too much. I've seen several articles with that headline making it seems like Serena only won because of Sara's injury......I had to LOL.
