4. I Don't Think She's "Back" Back

She looked a little slow in the parts i saw. I think she may still be trying to get her conditioning and burst back.

The velocity on the ground strokes didn't look like the "holy cow" we're used to seeing, and i think she would have been in big trouble if her opponent had reduced the unforced errors. (She had a lot of them.)

I agree it's nice to see her back in the game, but i think it might be a while before the real Serena is all the way back.

Over a year is a long time to be out of a sport like this. We just need to have patience.
