What Williams did in the women's tennis singles tournament at the Olympics at Wimbledon this week was ludicrous—a dominant run, in which she plowed through the bracket, dismissing world number ones and alleged number ones like club hackers, surrendering only 17 games over six matches. On Saturday, she won the gold medal, crushing Maria Sharapova 6-0, 6-1 in a jaw-dropping rout. Naturally, the Serena Williams re-appreciations have begun apace.

She reminds me of the skier Bode Miller: sidelined by injury for long periods of time, only performs when the mood is right, etc. But boy when Bode Miller is skiing at top form, he is simply unbeatable.
