It was staggering just how many people wanted to defend her from within the sport. And that presentation ceremony was shameful. It's a weird sport tennis- I can't think of anywhere else where a tiny few at the top dominate so much in terms of publicity, money etc- must give these people immense power and clout. When Federer got bundled out ticket prices for the finals apparently plummeted.

Officials, networks, stadiums etc all cash in on this star power. Can't upset their gravy trains- shameful.
