Venus Williams is a BADASS

You might remember me saying recently that although I am more of an ATP fan, there are some women who can play with the best of them?  Well, one of those women I was referring to was Venus Williams, and let me give you an example.

First, try not to pay attention to the "dress" that she wore on Aussie Open Day 3, which apparently wasn't a tactic to daze and confuse her opponents, but rather it was inspired by Alice-In-Wonderland?  I'm so serious......  

Yeah, don’t laugh. But it’s kind of about a surprise, because when Alice goes down the hole, the rabbit hole, she finds all these things that are so surprising.

This outfit is about having a surprise in tennis a dress, and kind of, you know, showing some skin and then just having a print. Prints don’t happen that often in tennis. So it’s called the Wonderland dress. It was fun.

Rather, pay attention to the fact that after losing the first set to Sandra Zahlavova, and suffering an injury that sent a blood-curdling scream out of her mouth, (and if you know Venus, if she even winces, that shiz HURTS),  she comes back after her medical time-out, and procedes to roll over her opponent, delivering a bagel in the 2nd.  This woman has NEVER retired from a Grand Slam singles match in 17 years.  So Badass.

But for the record Venus, even though you are a living legend, I still don't want to see your "crack."  Because in the words of wise Whitney Houston, "Crack is Wack!"
