New York times 今天提到此事 主要是在讲述大威在女性平权的贡献 (节录) Countries of all kinds make choices based on self-interest, as do tennis players. With Venus alongside him, Scott said he wished she and Serena would reconsider their no-play stance on the major tour stop in Indian Wells, Calif.; it dates to an 11th-hour withdrawal by Venus from a 2001 semifinal with Serena and the fan backlash that the Williamses heard as racial. Venus’s answer to the question of ever playing Indian Wells again sounded more “no” than “I don’t know.” But perhaps as she continues to grow, and lead, she will embrace the pragmatic approach more than the punitive at home as well. By now, no doubt, there is as much appreciation and respect for this American champion in the California desert as there should be in Dubai. 但文末也提及Indian Wells事件，纽时觉得大威在杜拜决赛呼吁平等权和拒绝歧视，也可 以适用在Indian Wells事件，也希望威家可以重新在此出赛。 ※ 编辑: Lesterli 来自: 163.29.35.145 (03/12 11:27)
