I never hear much about Chanda Rubin or Zina Garrison and the challenges they faced as persons of color. I always liked Rubin and also appreciated the fact that she helped out the kids in her home region, which I believe was south. We hear about the Williams sisters and Althea Gibson because of their careers, but Rubin and Garrison had decent careers. We hear about hardship and racial problems from other players but we haven't heard the stories of these two people. Well, at least I haven't.
I was hoping Safina could put three matches together this time. She needs to get over that hump confidence-wise.
Will Sabine ever be with us again?
Chanda Rubin is from Lafayette, Louisiana, a couple of hours from where I live. I really liked watching her play--she was very talented--but her career was just one injury after another. She couldn't stay healthy for very long.
Zina Garrison did have a good career, and was, of course, the Fed Cup captain for the USA team.
I haven't given up on Lisicki; she's had a really tough time of it.
