Tennis Anyone?

No grunters made the finals of the US Open and it was refreshing. An occasional grunt for a dramatic point is OK but the routine grunting is essentially a classless act of bling and vulgarity by corpulent Viragos raising a racquet instead of swinging one. Thank you Monica Seles.

The equal prize money for unequal work was baffling to me until I realized that the women were getting paid to create a lewd spectacle on the court for men with disposable incomes and deprived libidos. Two sets are what they came to see. Thank you Billie Jean.

For the sake of diversity, I used to root for the Williams Sisters but it was good to see them lose to someone who respects the game. Justine had no serve but justice was served. Discipline and dedication is more beautiful than fashion and pretension.
