Hypothetically...if a person 'gives up' then they can say they 'weren't beaten'.

Price for airline tickets to Paris for French Open $1699.
Price for tickets to Roland Garros for Serena's match £640.
Seeing the look on Serena Williams' Dad's face after she "surrendered" to Svetlana Kuznetsova in the 2009 French Open quarterfinals: priceless!

Once again, Serena Williams has shown what a graceless loser she is. By refusing to give credit to Kuznetsova, who played a fine match, she confirms the truth in the saying, "Sports is a character builder up to age 18--after that it's a character revealer." If she ate fewer pizzas and dropped twenty pounds she'd do better. She's a fine athlete but she is simply not committed to being the best she can be. She can't have it both ways--either she stops taking credit for wins or she begins to give credit to those who defeat her. What a big baby.

Why does everyone hate Serena? You would rather root for a Svetlana than the American that has the most grand slam wins on tour right now?
