It is what i wanted when i was at this table. It is what i looked forward to, that competition that i missed so much of playing the game that i have been doing since i was a young girl. Getting that back in april was extremely special. I have had my ups and downs with injuries and having that memorable u. S. Open a couple of weeks ago. Charlie why was it memorable . Maria memorable for a few reasons. One, because i have not played at the u. S. Open for a few years because of the suspension and previous injuries. It was the first grand slam back after 19 months. There was something more in the air. There is a sense of excitement. There is nothing like going out and playing a prim

Washington journal continues. Host our next guest is dave zirin. He is the Sports Editor for the nation. I want to get right to it.

I would remind people this is again he did not play. It is something he was to the vicariously through the violence on the field. Because it is not more violent, he is dissatisfied with the product. I think that is where he upset the nfl players, but h
