THAT MISCHIEF FULL QUESTION SOME FOLKS SOMETIMES ASK ME : honestly, tell me, WHO DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE WOULD WIN in a MATCH between SERENA WILLIAMS and NAOMI OSAKA ?

in very many ways,
it is
… to me …
a very silly question.

and so,
lots of times,
i really don’t answer it.

i just tell them that in sports anything can happen.

i just tell them that in sports anything can happen at anytime.

i just tell them that in sports anything can happen anytime.

and i leave it at that.

what kind of a silly question is that anyway ?

can not in any way at all
be levelled against
