Safina or Sanowa? Richard Williams would say “whatever”

1

Richard Williams, the father of Serena and Venus Williams, is either playing a game on us or he really can’t remember the name of the top-ranked women’s tennis player.

“I think she’s playing great tennis,” Richard said about Dinara Safina. “I think she deserves to be No. 1. I’ll tell ya something else, no one wants to play Sanowa, or whatever her name is. That girl hits that ball.”

Is it possible that he can’t remember the simple word “Safina”? Hehe, whatever, he made me laugh, plus, Safina received a compliment – so it’s all good.
