In support of Serena Williams
A message from Gill, of the Face Activities management team, to Serena Williams:
Dear Ms. Williams, I saw your game yesterday, and you performed brilliantly. I’m so sorry how you were treated. I believe the referees treated you unfairly, as they often do. I support you and thank you for your hard work and love of the sport! —-Gill of facecativities.com, @SerenaWillams
