Angry Serena smashes racquet
February 10, 2005. Not neccessarily new news, but racquet news nonetheless. It appears that top seeded Serena Williams smashed a racquet on her way to a quarter-final berth at the Paris Indoor Open. She won 6-3, 6-2 against wildcard Stephanie Cohen-Aloro, but the second round match was riddled with errors by the American, who had seven double faults and managed just under half of her first serves.
"I have a problem, I think I have anger issues," said Williams.
"I've just switched to a new racquet. The new one breaks easier, even if you bounce it," she said. "I've smashed so many racquets but this is the first one here."
Hmmm...do you think its the anger or the racquet's fault?
On an unrelated note, Williams withdrew from the tourney (Open Gaz de France) in the next round (quarterfinals) because of stomach flu...
