Francesca Schiavone: What she said, really meant and definitely did not


F. Schiavone (ITA) at 2009 Kremlin Cup in Moscow

What she said:

“Or you are a big, big talent or now you can find 28 or 30 years old, and they use experience, they use body, mind.So for young player is much tougher now than before.”

Francesca Schiavone makes it clear that in the battle between youth and experience, the older players have the upper hand.

What she really meant:

“Body, mind and spirit together with experience makes for a formidable combination.”

What she definitely didn’t:

“I’ll hand you a walkover because you’re younger than me.”
