Beasts From The East Dominate In Australia

By oddJoe ⋅ January 23, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Back during the Cold War, the West feared an invasion or nuclear annihilation from Russia and Eastern Europe. Instead they waited for thirty years and then took over women’s tennis.

Venus Williams was knocked out of the Australian Open today by fourth-seed Ana Ivanovic in straight sets 7-6, 6-4, setting up a semi-finals match against Daniela Hantuchova. In the other bracket, Jelena Jankovic defeated Serena Williams to face Maria Sharapova.

Of course in today’s post-Cold War world we no longer fear world domination by Eastern Europe. In fact we might even welcome a little domination from the likes of Sharapova.
