Ever one to stir the pot, John McEnroe visited Jimmy Kimmel's late-night TV show stateside Wednesday evening. Serena Williams' chase of the calendar-year Grand Slam quickly came up, a sight unseen in tennis since Steffi Graf's 1988 triumph. "I believe that I could still take her," McEnroe said of Serena at Kimmel's prodding. "She's got a lot to lose by losing to an old fart like myself. And I've got a lot to lose because if I lose to, God forbid, a woman, I'm not allowed in any men's locker room for the next 15 years, or possibly until the end of my life."
