Williams on air quality at Australian Open: "That is still a concern for everyone"

Serena Williams is through to the second round at the 2020 Australian Open after easing past Anastasia Potapova 6-0, 6-3 in just under an hour.
A lot has been made pre-tournament about the air quality in Australia and it is something which definitely does concern the legendary American.
“I definitely was concerned, and am. I think it changes every day.” said Williams.
“There are a lot of factors on how it can change. That is still a concern for, I think, pretty much everyone.”
Williams has previously suffered from pulmonary embolisms and suffered with shortness of breath following the birth of her daughter, Olympia with a scan finding multiple blood clots and it is something that has crossed her mind.
“It definitely crossed my mind. I’m, like, Oh, no, I’m already playing a little down than most people.” The world No.10 replied.
“But we’ll see. I just have to focus on what happens and we’ll see what happens.”

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
