Women's U.S. Open - Does Venus still love to play tennis?

As I was watching the match between Venus and Serena I kept getting the feeling that Venus' heart was no longer in the game.

Did anyone think Venus looked like she just doesn't want to play tennis anymore?

i can see where one could feel that way,
but i believe that, if you watched her last game,
she (even then) looked a little listless.
(imo) she may just have felt it to be her sisters year,
and hopes to do greater, later.

I know Venus perked up at times, but overall it's like she didn't even show up. Even her father commented on it.
It just made me wonder if she has always played because she wanted to play or because she was told to play.

i believe, if either of them give up the game,
it may be her, or rather it wouldn't surprise me if it was.
the young one is so powerful now.

haven't u listened 2 oracine, and the father's comments?

they talk like venus is a foster chile...serena ain't all that, and she will embarass the family soon.
venus won't quit bcause she will do as she is told, but she won't win either till she is told.
serena is the SPOILED younger sister, and venus MUST cater 2 her according 2 THAT family's traditions.
haven't u heard oracine say, Venus done won enuff trophies, it's serena's turn now.
of course that ain't how it works n the real world of sports, but the real world does not dictate 2 this family.
mayb venus IS a stepchild? or a half sister?
but just watch, when serena starts messing up, they'll send venus n 2 clean up the mess.

That's deep, Dezperayshun! That is really terrible if the rest of the Family is pressuring Venus to not be at her best.
I'm really glad that Serena's game has improved, but if Venus is still better then she needs to show that! That is not fair! This crap must really be messing with Venus' head!

You guys are silly.

Serena is that much better. She is mad stronger, has just as much finesse, and actually has a service game.

There is a reason why she was already ranked #1 in the world.

Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another
