Venus and Serena to play Fed Cup...

aaaserene1.jpgWith Lyndsey Davenport officially retired, Monica Seles and Jennifer Capriati unofficially retired and Billie Jean King just too old to play, things were looking pretty dire for the U.S. when it comes to international competition. But there's a couple of big names who on Wednesday announced that they are committed to playing later this month. Venus and Serena Williams will play for the United States' team in this month's first round Fed Cup tie against Belgium. It should be a real battle if Belgium is represented by its top two players: Justine Henin and Kim Clisters.

Hey...

Justine and Kim have already announced they are not playing Fed Cup in the tie versus the US.

Deuce blog looks cool...

I need to visit Wimbledon to complete the spectator slam.
