WIMBLEDON, England (AP) - Richard Williams says his daughters, Venus and Serena, have paid a price for their success.
They've struggled, he says, because of criticism from fans and the media, who grew tired of watching them play in Grand Slam finals and think they've made tennis "boring."
"When it was Steffi Graf or Chris Evert that won, or Monica Seles but when those two black girls came and beat up everyone, tennis was 'not exciting,'" he told The Associated Press on Thursday after watching Venus beat Maria Sharapova in the Wimbledon semifinals.
