Tell me what you think of when you hear the beginning of this quote, “It feels natural to do my noise. I’m not faking it.” It sounds to me like it came right out of an episode of Seinfeld. Now, it’s time for you start feeling bad about yourself because that quote came from a nine year old Australian girl in response to her “over-zealous” grunting during her tennis matches. Her local club has banned her from competing unless she gets her noises under control, unlike her idol, Maria Sharapova. I just find this whole situation a little awkward and want you to feel a little uncomfortable also. Pretty soon someone is going to make a joke that crosses the line, because it seems to mean that this is only reason it has become such a big deal. Personally, the only thing worse than women’s sports it little girl sports. Stop reporting on this.
