If they don't fix matches, they should. We can't have one feel too bad for losing too many times... </sarcasm>

Forget all that, I want to know if they've ever been tested for steroids.

The only women's tennis match I have watched in its entirety was between Chris Evert and Martina Navrotalova in July 1984. I was bedridden with hepatitis and could not get up to change the channel. It was hell.

I can't handle watching them. All of the uneccessary grunting drives me crazy.

GO JENNIFER!!!!!!

I'd like to see Jennifer play Serena in the semi finals and get revenage for her loss in the semi's at the French Open.

Asked if they ever pulled out to avoid playing each other, she said: "It never happened."

So when Serena pulled out so they wouldn't play each other in a semi-final and Venus could go to the championship match well-rested, that was a dream sequence?

Oh how typically "white" of you all. Griping over the fact that a sport which was once a pavilion to showcase the talents of "cute little white girls" to the delight of all the horned-up pervs drooling over them, is now being dominated by two strong, BEAUTIFUL, black women. I tell you it must be a travesty! Surely these two are Amazons on steroids and should be tested. What other possible explanation could there be for them to be dominating our beloved cuties. Just look at how brutish they are. It's obvious that they could and should be playing linebacker for the Packers. It's a crying shame. Someone ought to do something because it's just not fair that these two she-Hulks are so much stronger than the fair and beautiful and sexy hotties like Anna, Jennifer, and Martina. Truly there must be some conspiracy going on and I think one of you hit the nail on the head when you suggested that they look like members of the 70's German Women's Olympic Swim Team. It's quite obvious that Venus and Serena are not african American women, but are rather two well tanned German swimmers with fantastic physical alterations done to their features. Let's not forget the terrible injustice of these two being ranked #1 and #2 at our cute little white girls expense. Oh it is just sooooo unbearable to watch them play and hear all the grunting noises they make whenever they volley(Our pristine Anna, Martina, and Jennifer never make such brutish, non human sounds do they?) What horrible injustice will they have to endure next?...Venus and Serena ranked as the sexiest women in tennis?!?...OH! HEAVENS TO BETSY LET IT NOT BE SO!!! I will now end my sarcasm of your ridiculous statements and say this one thing; instead of resorting tho thinly veiled racist comments, why not try and give credit where credit is due. Venus and Serena earned what they've acheived and your derisive comments towards them makes me ashamed to call you fellow conservatives.

>Venus and Serena Williams today denied claims that they had fixed matches

Would Venus and Serena lie?!

Yech.

More importantly, tomorrow morning at 8am EST, on Court 1, Brie Rippner (USA) goes against Justine Henin.

Serena and Venus claim they don't fix their matches

Yeah, right. That's what Gore and Bush said, too:

Serena beat Venus today in straight sets, what a coincidence!! It was her turn in the rotation and it would have been too obvious for Venus to get a three-peat.
