I nearly fell off my chair when I read these posts. Please share with us your career highlights so we can gauge your credentials to casually diss a National, World and Olympic Champion. More blah, blah, blah. I'm sure Michelle sleeps soundly of a night knowing she has such ardent defenders...

So true! Belinda Noonan has been the Australian commentator since at least Nagano, and while she's improved over the years, I really don't like her voice. However, to be fair, she has been saddled with some appalling network "talking heads". Her cohort's (who was this, I can't remember)...

I don't doubt Serena is over it at the moment. She had the Grand Slam in the bag and choked it away. Her disappointment must still be total, so a break is the best thing for her.

Very interesting piece on the Australian show 7.30 Report last night (here is the link - don't know if it's geoblocked: http://www.abc.net.au/7.30/ An aviation lawyer, Mary Schiavo, stated travelling on stolen/fake passports was not an uncommon occurrence. She gave an example of an Air India...
