Serena Williams Is Classy

Following her defeat at the hands of Justine Henin on Tuesday, Serena Williams was ever the gracious loser at her post-match press conference.

"I just think she made a lot of lucky shots."

And: "I really don't feel like talking about it. It's like I don't want to get fined. That's the only reason I came. I can't afford to pay the fines because I keep losing."

She was asked if her assessment was that she lost, rather than Henin won.

"I think that's usually the case with me," she said, "that it's for me to win or lose."

Eh, just watch it for yourself.



Class.
