Serena Does it Again

Serena Williams barely got the better of her older sister, Venus Williams in a U.S. Open quarterfinal, but she did it. She broke the tie in their head to head series. This was the 17th time they had met as professionals. These two sisters grew up together working out in the same court in Compton, California. They both played brilliantly, however, Serena won by three total points. They are quite a pair of tennis experts. It must be something to play against your sister. Venus has beat Serena too in the past.

Padraig Harrington Wins Tennis Open

Greg Norman had to be feeling bad when he lost the Open to Harrington. When you work so hard and get so far, it is tough to see someone else enjoying watching the engraver putting someone else's name on the oldest trophy in golf. Winning a major puts you in a special club, but winning two of them puts you in an even more special class. Harrington had hurt his right wrist so badly, he couldn't put in all the practice he wanted too. But I guess that made all the difference because even though he hurt, he was rested up and he won.
