and there are several others as well. I have no problem with most of the players and their grunts or little noises but those high pitched wails drive me up the wall.

I used to not be able to stand her, sick to death of her promo all the time and I just hate when these young women get hooked into the super model crap. It so demeans the sport, makes it seem like only the portal to real money and stardom. When she went that route I gave up on her. I have to say that I respect all the work she has done to come back. Now, if she could stop her shrieking I would be happy when she was playing.

I see Venus and Serena lost in doubles to the #1 ranked team. Dang. I'll feel bad that Serena has to beat Sloane Stevens to get to the match with the screamer. Oh, and that Victoria Azarenka is very loud also.....wow.

...but she saves her most annoying grunting for the big points, even when she isn't hitting the ball especially hard.

I guess there will be much muting at my house. Although I am not crazy about Azarenka, and I am not certain why but she will probably grow on me, I like all the others in the semi finals. That is always a good thing
