But neither Williams nor her many fans should hold their breath waiting on an apology from McEnroe.
McEnroe appeared on CBS Tuesday morning for the latest stop in his book-promoting tour. On the program This Morning, he was asked if he'd like to apologize for what he said. He responded with a firm nope.
