So Serena Williams is out of the US Open...

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2010/08/20/sports/s130152D40.DTL

Not saddened by this at all, unfortunately.
I was watching E News at the weekend and they were saying that there were rumours flying that Serena had been in getting a nose job, her manager denied the rumours, but maybe that's why she's pulled out of the Open, still got 2 black eyes.  w00t

Could be she opted for a nose job when she found she couldn't play in the tournament. Think  However, nothing Serena does is ever straightforward.  Personally, after all her arrogant self-hype and last year's disgraceful exhibition, a mouth job would have been better.

His isn't just a hairy chest - it's like some kind of furry animal!  Anyway when it comes to hairy chests, I always had the temptation to pull the hairs out one by one ... perverted, or what? lol

"Mentally I'm very fresh," said Federer.  From the mental side I have no problems whatsoever.

Physically I feel the same thing. I feel as good as I can feel prior to a Grand Slam. I have no niggling injuries, no pain anywhere.

"In Toronto I really had a lot of muscle pain, my arm, my wrist, my chest, my shoulder. Coming back right off the bat after six weeks and playing such tough matches early on was tough on the body.

"I got a little bit lucky in Cincinnati with a walkover against Kohlschreiber. That gave me that extra day of rest, next thing I knew I never looked back and didn't have any physical problems any more. Here I am, I've had good preparation and am ready to go."

Asked about the perception that his powers are on the wane, Federer added: "I was winning one or two Slams a year and I was on the downslide so you can't really take it too serious really, to be quite honest. You can't win 12 tournaments every season. That's clear to me. I spoiled myself by playing so well and you just prepare for the times when it's not winning 12 a season. If it's two or four or six it's still a good season depending on how you're feeling, how you're evolving as a player. I was always making sure I tried to get better.

"I also had some problems. I had mono (glandular fever), I've had a lung infection, I've had a bad back. It's all been on a lower level but maybe at times I should have just taken a rest instead of playing.

^ That's right, Fed - rub it in about all the aches and pains in Toronto ... he can never lose graciously. Frown

What a truly remarkable recovery:

"I got a little bit lucky in Cincinnati with a walkover against Kohlschreiber. That gave me that extra day of rest, next thing I knew I never looked back and didn't have any physical problems any more. Here I am, I've had good preparation and am ready to go."

W****r.
