Maybe I'm missing something but this bothered me

11. Richard made those champions.

I love Venus and Serena. They are both fantastic athletes who changed the way tennis is played. And, in Venus’ case, the way female athletes are paid. I’m not honestly sure that there will ever be a tennis player that can dominate the sport as Serena has.

But, Richard and Oracene had to fight for those girls right to even be champions. They tangled with tennis federations, event sponsors, officials, coaches, and the press…all while getting two players ready to compete at the sports highest levels as teenagers. And, they were poor girls competing in a sport where players typically come from a “country club” background.

And they didn’t just compete. They dominated.

I tip my visor to Richard Williams, and the whole Williams family. It took all of them to get there. I can’t wait to see this film.
