The Australian Open again is the starting grounds for a new season. And, just maybe the ground breaking to new heights of performance for Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic, Sloane Stephens, Li Na, and Victoria Azarenka.
This Open was supposed to be the continuation of Serena Williams' charge for the Serena Slam. I guess Sloane Stephens got the memo and choose to rewrite history. Stephens bursted on to the scene this week and made a statement that she is going to be a top 10 player and a threat to win a Slam.
Stephens was supposed to be a road bump for Serena. Stephens instead
flipped the script on her way to her first Grand Slam semi final. Serena
was not 100%; her serve was significantly slower and less impactful in
the quarters. Nonetheless, Stephens was able to bounce back down 3-4 in
the third set. I love to see that moment where a player reveals their
resiliency and confidence at a higher level.
