Serena Williams is one of five Wimbledon favorites - McEnroe
John McEnroe commented on Serena Williams' chances to win a Grand Slam again.
McEnroe, speaking prior to Wimbledon, said: "She’s going to be 38, and she’s had a baby, so this is — how does your body react to that is the obvious question. To me, the fact that the women still play two out of three is a big help for her. And like Chrissie said, Wimbledon, things happen faster. She hasn’t served as big, as consistently as she had in the past, but I would suspect that after the French, she went back and worked on her serve even more to make sure that that’s the weapon that it’s been, and that way she can be more freed up to do more on the return and other parts of her game. As long as she’s playing, she’s going to be a threat to win anything. But it’s just now there are more things that can go wrong, I suppose, like more days where she might not have it and other days where players won’t give in as easily. So that just makes it more difficult. But that means that if you had to pick five players that you thought, okay, who’s going to win it this year, you’d still put her in there. You might put her in there even down to four players."
