Is that Serena Williams i see?

I used to have respect for Johnny Mac.

That’s all in the crapper now!

Is it wrong that I prefer those 55 mph tennis balls be headed directly at her face rather than away from her?

[GatorGirl]

A 55 mph first serve is very mundane for someone with such incredibly toned arms.

I wonder if we’re going to get video. I bet Serena’s are the only balls on Mac’s side of the net! LOL!

:: Obama played doubles against Serena Williams ::

From the photo, I’m pretty sure that ain’t Serena across the net from Johnny Mac.

That said, someone should FactCheck this because, AFAIK, Serena is still in the hunt at the Open and I seriesly doubt she would take the occasion to “tank” her game for a FWOTUS photo-op.

If she did and loses tomorrow...well, we can point to a specific cause, couldn’t we?

[Brad’s Gramma]

Are there any VIDEOS of her actually playing??

[Thank You Rush]

“”Obama says she didn’t get into tennis until after law school because there were few courts where she grew up in Chicago””

We knew she was UNDERprivileged but we didn’t know it was THAT BAD! Poor thing. No wonder she has to live it up now!
Shall we take pity on her?

NOPE - not me!!!

Well if they can’t find potential voters in the NASCAR crowd, maybe they can find a few in Tennis. If not there is always Bocce Ball or Curling.

Obama visited the U.S. Open for the first time Friday to promote her campaign against childhood obesity and praise the U.S. Tennis Association's initiative to build kid-sized courts.

A few sentences on these topics made it a taxpayer-funded business trip instead of what it really was, a pleasure trip. Michelle looks a bit happier today than she did yesterday sitting in the House.

Why doesn’t she visit a food bank? Think the kids whose parents have lost their jobs and have no food on the table, don’t have tennis as a priority on their list right now. Just out of curiosity does she make a yarrrrayrayahahryrharr noise when she hits the ball?

[melancholy]

Wookie fashionable balls?
