Serena Williams

March 10th, 2009 filed in Tennis

Serena Williams is an American professional tennis player who is ranked World No. 1 by the Women’s Tennis Association, having now held that ranking on four different occasions. She is the current US Open and Australian Open singles champion and has won 20 Grand Slam titles: ten in singles, eight in women’s doubles, and two in mixed doubles. There is something else you may notice about Serena, she is huge! Is she Cheating, or Beating?

Recently our friends over at The World of Isaac pointed out just how large Serena has gotten in recent years:

I swear in college I lifted like five times a week and never looked like this. Sure, I may have mixed in a 12 beer night with some cocktails but that shouldn’t have hindered me that much. Right?

And I don’t care that she is tensing every muscle in her body. She looks like Sammy Sosa circa 1998 in this picture. Maybe they should start roid testing in women’s tennis. I’m guessing Serena and Amelie Mauresmo might show some statistical testosterone anomalies.

Serena Williams is CHEATing
Chester Cheater
A picture is worth a thousand words, and that picture screams CHEATER! I’m not going to say that Serena isn’t a good tennis player, because she is, and has been for a long time. But her career certainly slowed for awhile, and now has made a sudden resurgence. What is the difference? Only about 10 inches on those biceps. It may not necessarily be steroids, but she is on something. According to a recent Sports Illustrated article, the WADA and ITF have joined forces to create a new drug testing program for Tennis. Who spoke out against it? Serena Williams :

“I think it’s too much. It’s very invasive. … Basically, they show up at your house on any day. I jump from city to city all the time. First of all, I never tell people where I am because I like to do my own thing.”

You keep doing your “own thing” Serena, but don’t be surprised when it gets you suspended from Tennis.

Serena Williams is BEATing her competition
Billy Beater
Serena Williams has been one of the best women’s tennis players in the world for a period of 10 years. She has never failed a drug test, despite being tested for several years under existing drug testing policies. Just because a woman lifts some weights and gets large, it is ok to accuse her of cheating? Please provide some proof Chester before making your allegations, and bringing down yet another strong role model.

So what do you think? Does Serena Williams CHEAT, or BEAT?
