VENUS, SERENA STILL BOYCOTTING INDIAN WELLS: Sisters may face suspension. Plus, Serena plays tonight after beating sis.
*Under new 2009 Women's Tennis Association [WTA] rules announced Wednesday, both Venus Williams and her sister Serena face suspension for continuing to boycott the Indian Wells tournament, where they were booed in 2001.
Their boycott stems from a 2001 semi-final match at the tournament when the sisters were scheduled to play each other for the chance to face Belgian Kim Clijsters in the final. Venus pulled out with a knee injury five minutes before the match, causing many t

Talley-Ho! This Year, Says Vogue Editor, Designers Let Them Eat Cake!
Before this afternoon’s Diesel Black Gold show at the Bryant Park tents, Vogue’s longtime editor-at-large André Leon Talley sat in the third row—“I have to dash out of here. If you sit in your normal seat you can’t get to the door fast enough,” he explained—discussing his excitement over “the sudden surge of diversity on the runway” he’d observed thus far at Fashion Week.
“It’s so much better than watching just an army of anorexic-looking girls from places like Croatia, or Serbia, o
Venus Williams, Open Edition
A lot is being made today of Venus' "uncharacteristic" play last night: she made 45 unforced errors, and blew 10 set point opportunites. But really, this is the Venus Williams we've seen over the last couple years at the Open.
Last year, when she played Jelena Jankovic in the quarters, she commited 56 unforced errors, and then hit another 35 in her semifinal loss to Justine Henin. Afterward, everyone was wondering if something was seriously wrong with Venus; her mother, Oracene Williams, made th

Serena Williams in the Finals, USTA is Giddy
Serena Williams only need an hour-and-a-half to defeat Dinara Safina in straight sets 6-3, 6-2. Williams really just let Safina implode: the Russian had 41 unforced errors, and won only 29 percent of points off her second serve.
After the match, Venus Williams was waiting for her kid sister outside the women's locker room with Hank Kuehne. An absolutely elated Arlen Kantarian, the CEO of the USTA, strolled by and tapped Venus Williams arm and then began clapping his hands. He gave her a thumbs up, and smil

Tiny 'Handbag' dogs born into cruelty
The pint-sized bichon frise has a diamond-studded collar and luxury pink sweater in her wardrobe. Bichon frise, as dog enthusiasts may know, means 'curly lapdog' in French, and Daisy certainly fits neatly on Coleen's lap, under her arm or in her handbag.
Such is the popularity of 'handbag dogs' that designers such as Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci have responded by making dog carriers that resemble handbags costing from hundreds to thousands of pounds.

Venus Williams was the popular pick for tonight's match, but 45 unforced errors later, Serena Williams is heading to her first semifinal at the Open since 2002 with a dramatic, hard-knocked 7-6, 7-6 win.
Moments after Serena won, she was greeted at the entryway of the women's locker room by Venus' companion Hank Kuehne who told her congratulations. She barely seemed to notice, and offered a half-hearted, "Yeah, oh, thank you." She was too busy smiling, a far different picture after her quarterfin

Williams Sisters VS Peyton Brothers
They've conquered England, were a dynamic duo in Beijing this August and are preparing for the U.S. Open...but that's not enough for tennis greats Serena and Venus Williams!

The sisters join famous quarterback brothers Peyton Manning and Eli Manning, the league's first "two sport" athletes, who launched t
WTA Wants to Root Out Injuries, Indifference
The Women's Tennis Association is clearly troubled by the injuries and disaffection that have plagued the tour in the last few years, and yesterday they announced a plan to do something about it.
In a "roadmap," the WTA announced that the amount of required tournaments will be scaled back from 12 to 10 (in addition to the four Grand Slams), and if players decide to skip out any of them, they risk suspension. The season will be shorter, the court surface transitions (hard court to clay to gr
