I saw the episode where she appeared, she should keep her "day" job

Problem is she is deteriorating exponentially at day job too.

Not many people in Denmark think Trump is a serious candidate but more a protest beacon. So do I and Caroline. She got a lot of unfollowers on Twitter (and the opposite too) after her praise of a speech by Mrs Obama:

It's not because I want a debate, but this is news and gossip about our babes.

If you have any news or gossip about your babes then come with it, so it's not me and a few others. Make Tennis Frontier an active space.

I also think that it's a pity noone is writing about Rogers Cup - maybe some of you guys behind Tennis Frontier should active point out or ask some of the members to follow a tournament - it's not difficult.

So all of you passive Tennis Frontier members come out of your hidings and make Tennis Frontier a pleasant place to be a tennis fan wtihout too much negativeness. We have a lot of good female tennis players right now playing marvelous matches who are forgotten because they are not in the top 10 hasn't won a slam - which I think is FAR too overrated - but you know that all ready me thinks.

Bad luck for Martina. After her mixed doubles partner quitting from Rio, now her women's doubles partner also quits from Rio (citing wrist issues).

Hope she can play mixed with The Man and women's with Timea though.

However, Timea was supposed to play with Golubic. I don't know whether they would let and/or Timea would be interested in changing partners at this time.

Also, it is not very clear whether they will let Martina play mixed doubles if she is not playing women's doubles.

It is probably better for Switzerland to back down on Golubic and not send her to Rio at all.

he has an Armenian last name ...I hope Kim Kardhashian didnt introduce him to her.I think she would be better off with an older guy who is successful on his own and is ready to settle down.She should not date like she is in her twenties..she should be dating with marriage and kids in mind..

Tossip, the link doesn't work. Is it the same guy she went to dinner with in San Francisco when the guy tried to steal her phone?
If so, he's a Silicon Valley moneybags person, so he's not with her for the comeup

It is Alexis Ohanian, Serena's BF #13 . He is an well accomplished entrepreneur and was once mentioned in the 30 under 30 in tech industry list. It remains to be seen whether her BF count will eventually exceed her slam count.

That site is hilarious, with the 'compatibility match'.:lolz: Hey GSM, her BF count (if accurate) is low compared to young folks these days. With the event of Tinder etc., people are getting to 'know each other' on a more regular basis :snicker

4. Caroline Garcia and Kristina Malendovic (France)

it must be killing pova to see everybody suiting up for the Olympics...she can do all the photo ops she can but her celebrity is fading fast.She better think about reinventing herself,date Leonardo di Carprio or Porzingas because she is fading ...no media outlet wants to touch her with that tainted reputation..its ruined beyond repair especially in the court of public opinion...

there is a part where Scone commented on Venus and described her as a beast and that she is not human...I know to some people its sounds like a compliment but coming from that one s mouth it sounds like an insult...she has no shame..what an ugly spirit..

What is the status of Venus' injury? Are Serena and Venus healthy for Rio? I want USA crushing Russia for all the cheating in past Olympics. Russian athletes should have been banned.

I heard that Richard's mental health has been compromised as the result of his recent stroke. He has a bit of a long road to recovery.. That's tough on the ladies because they typically look towards him for mental strength

as always Vee saves the day....apparently the russians are hanging out at the airport hoping to be let in.
the way Scone and Keys look at Serena with envy is comical...since that win at AO Scone has not done much and her hate for Serena is real
