Tennis - American teenager Madison Keys says that her three-set loss to Agnieszka Radwanska at Wimbledon last year still hurts and will be seared into her memory for another ten years.
Keys is one of the rising stars of the game and her big serve and powerful groundstrokes have made tennis pundits earmark her as a future top 10 player.
In an interview with CNNSI.com, Keys says, 'Oh, my gosh. Radwanska at Wimbledon last year [No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska beat Keys 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 in the third round]. I can close my eyes and I'm back on that court. Why did I hit that backhand down the line?!?! Why! I should have gone cross court! Why! It will be there in 10 years.'
Keys also said that the women's locker room is not as bitchy as it is made out to be. 'All these rumors that we hate each other and beat each other in the locker room is not true. We actually get along really well. We sit around in a circle and hold hands and sing Kumbaya all the time. Sometimes Beyonce, sometimes Rihanna. Depends on the mood.'
