Amelie Mauresmo wins her match at rainy Wimbledon...

The rain is really screwing things up at Wimbledon 2007. But defending champion Amelie Mauresemo, an open lesbian since she made her debut on the tennis tour a decade ago, made quick minced meat out of her opponent and made it to the fourth round. She is seeking her second Wimbledon title. I think she is a lovely and well-spoken champion.

But the rain and slippery grass prevented second-seed Rafael Nadal from even getting past his warm-up so he'll have to wait until Monday to play for a spot in the quarterfinals. His arch-rival Roger Federer is already there: his opponent, Tommy Haas (pictured below) had to withdraw due to a torn stomach muscle. Ouch!


Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.

I think Mauresmo is very hot -- and very talented! A credit to the game, and she's so well-spoken and charming, too. What's not to like!!!
