Radwanska: "Slams are more important than Olympics". Now accursed by whole Poland

http://www.sport.pl/londyn2012/1,12...12__Tenis__Radwanska_powiedziala_prawde_.html

Aga told at the press conference after mixed doubles that Olympics are not the most important tournament in tennis those are Slams which are the most important tournaments. Olympics are just an addition.

The girl will always tell what she really thinks. :spit: She doesn't even have any kind of respect to Olympic spirit. Now she lost 90% of her fans in Poland that she gained with her Wimbledon final. :haha: Now she's called Antiolympic flag bearer. People say that she can only play for money and when it comes to represent her country she fails as doesn't have $$$ motivation. ;)

The talk with Matkowski (Aga's mixed doubles partner) at the presser after 1st round mixed doubles loss was the legend in terms of respect to Olympics:

"It was the last chance match, we won't have the match for honour" - Matkowski laughing.
"Soon gotten, soon spent" - Aga replying and laughing.
"Wait, maybe there is repechage?" - Matkowski continuing the joke.
"Maybe, we must ask. Maybe they will push as to some event" - Aga replying. :spit:

Q: Are you now coming to [Olympic] Village?
Aga: Yes, I am! I am coming to village called Canada. :hysteric: GOAT

She's right and honest, and this gets me closer to being a fan.
I'm so messed up - whenever a player loses I become a fan.

While she is correct, I can't help but think this statement comes slightly jaded because of her disappointing results.

Just as she was starting to redeem herself :facepalm:

This, and considering she was chosen for (and accepted) the role of flagbearer, the :facepalm: is that much greater.

Not the first time Aga has been bitter in defeat either.

A flag bearer can't say this amount of crap.

of course she's right. any tennis player who says otherwise is simply a liar.

and that is precisely why no tennis player should be a flag bearer. only in sports where the olympics is the pinnacle of that sport should someone be a flag bearer. in tennis, this simply isn't the case.

Exactly. Slams ARE more important than Olympics, but saying that after being eliminated in R1 and being the flag carrier of your country is just sad and poor. :shrug:
It's just another way to show she doesn't care about anything but money. :rolleyes:

At least her sister and she representing Poland, unlike 1.Caroline Wozniacki, 2.Samantha Stosur, 3.Sabine Lisicki, 4.Angelique Kerber... 27.Aleksandra Wozniak, 28.Olivia Rogowska

Exactly !
She is right but the way she said this.. :lol: and I mean, as a flagbearer she should endorse the Olympics for its meaning or anything :lol: I am sure Pova thinks Slams are more important but is proud to represent Russia :shrug:
"just an addition" WTF :spit: and her presser with her double partner :spit:

Tennis is a weird olympic sport like that. It definitely belongs in the Olympics (summer sport, popular etc.) but it's probably the only Olympic sport where Olympics isn't most important :lol:.

Doubt QV would be saying this if she won a few rounds however :oh:.

I've never remotely liked her but if Poland is 'accusing' her now, what a bunch of sad losers.
