good player she is. ///

All
good things come to those who wait. Venus Williams knows
that better than most. For three and a half years she
had waited - sometime patiently, sometimes not - for
the chance to get the better of her kid sister and for
three and a half years she had been upstaged by her
younger, more powerful and more extroverted sibling.

of arrogant modesty, or, if you prefer, modest arrogance.

As
title defenses go, Andy Roddick's was swift, frustrating
and ultimately painful. He was forced to pull out of
his opening match against Fernando Verdasco after spraining
his wrist in the opening set. Consulting with the ATP
trainers, he tried a little treatment and a little taping
but finally decided that, rather than risk causing further
damage, he had better call it quits while trailing 7-6,
4-3. ///

bad news from the front line of the Nasdaq-100 Open
is that one of Andre Agassi’s toes is still bigger
than the other one. As he set aside fears about his
fitness to confirm that he will be playing his 19th

for those who would love to see him win a record seventh
title there. ///
