I am actually so upset that Rune is probably going to be around for a long time.
Something needs to change at some point. I don't know how much more I can watch of that Children of the Corn face and that stank attitude.
Are we sure they're split for good? I have a feeling Eric is just on loan to Genie (Venus is friends with her and would have been the one to hook them up while she's in recovery, since they probably wouldn't have met at a tournament). I'm not alarmed by his insta bio saying 19-23 because I think he's just listing all the years and is still working with her (it is currently still 2023... lol). Eg he would change it to 2024 if they continue into next year. At least I hope so!Yeah...I kind of figured when he posted that picture. I wonder who initiated the split and if Eric would still appear on Venus' YouTube.
I imagine they have things pre-recorded so maybe...unless Venus would scrap them because they feature him. He got a lot of publicity being attached to their names, so that was cool for him. Bouchard isn't an elite player but she is younger and obviously has more potential than Venus at this stage in her career.
If Venus is coming back, I don't really know what a true coach can do for her. Her physical is so compromised that maybe she just needs a hitting partner she can bond with and do some scouting for her.

He really thinks he did something, huh? Stay pressed, heaux!

A lot of her floppery during that period has been injury-related, but equally, she's thrown in a few Flopnus matches. It's just been really hard for them to gain traction as a team, so I find it hard to judge the partnership overall.And now that I'm thinking about it his record with Venus was 24-35 during that time period. She's been needed a new coach tbh. They were giving best friend vibes lol So you guys remember last year after Wimbledon when she went down to Croatia and practiced with those guys? Could that have been a hint?
Why does she keep giving us false hope by being on the courtSo you really didn't notice the face full of makeup or the fact it was a paid advertisement for dog food? Lol
Baby, that's fat. He's ch0nky.In other news, Stan's pecs are popping. I live!!
Yes while all this is true, some of the changes aside from the simpler serve aren't really helping her. The timing on the forehand is just off and she uses a slappy motion now and without good timing errors are just going to pile up. Also Venus standing 8 feet behind the baseline to return serve and scrambling all over the court isn't helping her injury prone body. I feel Venus needs to be controlling the center of the court more like Davenport use to,who was known for so so movementA lot of her floppery during that period has been injury-related, but equally, she's thrown in a few Flopnus matches.

He has done some interesting technical things with her, e.g. remodelling her serve and forehand, but those changes haven't really had time to bed in, given how infrequently she's been playing.
I wouldn't be aggrieved if he went, but it would be interesting to see them work together for an extended period, unhampered by injury.
Well as much as I'm after the experience of an in person tennis event I won't enjoy myself if Venus doesn't go as I have a green t-shirt which says 'Game Set Match V.Williams' which I want to wear at Birmingham but thanks for being positive, I'm not getting my tickets yet but if I wait until like May is there a chance that with Emma's news tickets could be close to selling out otherwise I'm not gonna wait and just hope she plays next year and enjoy the tournament on TV.I think if you know you can still enjoy the event if Venus doesn't go you should get your tickets now. If the experience of an in person tennis event is what you are after I think you'll still enjoy yourself. If the goal was just to see Venus though and you know you won't have fun if she doesn't play then maybe wait and see if you hear anything. I think we are in for a long wait though. It's looking really unlikely that she will do anything during the clay season so we probably won't know her status for Wimbledon until like May.
Oh Jehovah... this will probably end up as one of those Tennis RPF erotic fanfics the gays write.Perhaps Rune and Wawrinka had a little make-up session in the locker room. 😜 I spy sexual tension.
It's hard to say and likely only a decision you can make. I would assume good tickets will be in short supply the closer to the event we get. The grass season is so short that I assume UK tennis fans snap up tickets pretty quick?@Couver I know I'm getting excited ahead of myself about Venus and that she might not come to Birmingham but do I wait until like May or is there a chance that by then with Emma's news tickets could be close to selling out?
I am waiting for that tea to be spilled. He did mention the politics and lies so it must be messy. Honestly the fashion and entertainment world are just stank. I was done with the Oscars after the overreaction to the slap last year. And they only confirmed that was the right decision with the leak from that voter attacking Viola Davis without even seeing her movie...Did you fashion forward PV's see that Venus's stylist Law Roach has retired? He styled her all last year for the King Richard press junkets. There's some tea but no one has spilled it yet. The fashion industry is pretty awful and Zendaya is definitely going to miss LR:
