Venus Defends Dubai
Getty
But I don't.
Look. I couldn't bring myself to watch a single point. Won't watch one next week either. As Venus Williams might say, I'm not trying to be down with Dubai. Shahar Pe'er gets her previously denied visa to enter the country and perform, but even when she plays the defending champ -- the defending champ, the kind of defending champ that gives this kind of event serious stature in tennis -- she's relegated to an outer court? Which means the stature-giving defending champ is relegated to an outer court also.
That's some straight-up bullshit.
Hey, Venus. Why you still so down with Dubai?
I don't care how much the players on both tours like the event, it simply shouldn't exist and I wish it didn't.
But it does, so....
I give it lip when it crowns a champion.
Oy.
