Title: Venus hands out media smackdown
Post by: LP on June 02, 2021, 04:17:12 pm
When asked how she deals with media scrutiny, in light of the Naomi Osaka withdrawing form the French Open, this is how Venus Williams responded;

“For me personally how I deal with it was that I know every single person asking me a question can’t play as well as I can and never will,” she said.

“So no matter what you say or what you write, you’ll never light a candle to me.

“That’s how I deal with it. But each person deals with it differently.”

I hope our club and and all AFL players take note when being hounded by AFL Media like Flubbo, Caro, Barrett, Stevens, Nhial and / or various Social Media vloggers / bloggers!

Think you’ve confused her with Serena, but your point is still valid.
