1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 2: So I was sad to watch the emotional press conference

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 2: after the Australian Open exit for Serena Williams.

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,879
Speaker 3: Yes, she was beaten yesterday by the number three Naomi

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 3: Osaka in the semifinal, and there are a couple love

6
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,240
Speaker 3: of moments that made people think, is she thinking of retiring?

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 3: And it'd be really hard to be Sir William Williams

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 3: and still be playing really well to get to these semifinals,

9
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 3: To get that close and have everyone say every time

10
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 3: you don't make it, oh, are you going to retire?

11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 3: Be terrible.

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: And she won. The last time she won, it was

13
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen and she was pregnant.

14
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, but when she left the court after this defeat yesterday,

15
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 3: she lingered for a minute, she put her hand on

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 3: a heart and she waved to the crowd. It seemed

17
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: like a more poignant exit than after other tournaments, and

18
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 3: that's what caused people to talk about that. And she

19
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 3: was asked a couple of questions in the press conference.

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 3: They weren't rude questions, but she got quite emotional, really

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: poignant moment.

22
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: When you walked off the core to a standing ovation

23
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,199
Speaker 2: and you put your hand over your heart.

24
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: Some people wondered if this is you were almost saying farewell.

25
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if if I ever say farewell, wouldn't

26
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: tell anyone. So she was saying about the unforced errors

27
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: through the match, considering how well you've played to get

28
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: to this stage. What do you feel or cause that

29
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: it was just one of those bad days at the office. Ah,

30
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: I don't know.

31
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: I'm a fundone, she exited, and it's so hard. She

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 3: put a post up yesterday saying that she was honored

33
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: and grateful to play in front of the Australian fans.

34
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 3: She said, I love you, I love you, I love you,

35
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: I adore you, very very gracious. There's been some speculation.

36
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 3: I think people wondering about.

37
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: This because she.

38
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: Fell short of her twenty fourth Grand Slam title. If

39
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 3: she'd won the Australian Open or another Grand Slam still

40
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: to come this year, she will have tied with Margaret

41
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 3: Court at the top of the women's game for major titles.

42
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 3: So this is all speculation. People are thinking. In her mind,

43
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 3: is she not wanting to go until she either equals that.

44
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 2: Or tops that. She's task driven?

45
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but how hard is that she's thirty nine years old.

46
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 3: She's still an extraordinary player. How hard is it to

47
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 3: get the what's required to keep going at this level?

48
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: But to have got so close? When do you pull

49
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 3: the pen?

50
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 2: That's my life. I'm going at this level all the time.

51
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: You're taking on Margaret Court.

52
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: It's exhausting. I can see you tie thing in. Putting

53
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 2: out my own clothing line, just pants, but only with

54
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: one leg one legged pants.

55
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 3: Oh okay, well.

56
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: One, No, you haven't understood. So one's a short pan

57
00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 2: and the other legs are long.

58
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 3: This is a reference to the cat suit that she

59
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 3: wore on court.

60
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 2: No, it's just coincidental. Okay, but ten be a best

61
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 2: and less.

62
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: Tennis will be much less without her. I think the

63
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 3: fashion worlds will survive without you.

64
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: Are you sure about that?

65
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: I think so.

66
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's damnation
