Unexplained- doesn't look like too many people here watch tennis. I enjoy watching matches of players I know. I thought the Williams/Capriati match was great yesterday and I was happy to see Serena win! Those Williams girls are awesome!!

:yeahthat The William sisters are truly talented but I saw Justin Heni-Hardenne's match and thought that she's really good too.

Not many people in the FoRT actually watched tennis. :shrug But it's okay, I thought I post this up for updates.

It's going to be an exciting Men's Semis and Women's Semis. :yay

When do Venus and Serena play next? I have an 18 month old so watching t.v. isn't too easy, but I'm hoping to see both their matches. I'm not a tennis pro, I don't really know the names you named, but maybe if I get more t.v. time, I'll get to know them. lol

Venus and Serena both won their semi-final matches today so will be in the final on Saturday :yay

I like them both so it's a win/win for me.
