Whenever I hear that the William's Sister's are playing tennis, I wake up early in the
mourning just to see them play., I'am very much glued to my television, as I have a fracture and have to keep my foot up. So I'am enjoying my time recuperating . I'am in awe with Venus and Serana, because they so very humble. What a blessing to have that in today's world. Many blessing to the both of them.

Simply put they are the best we have seen in a very long time.
My concern though is that they do not play many events; I think they should play more events and keep the domination going.

Congratulations to Papa and Mamma Williams, yes!congrats to the USA what a great way to start the 4th of July Celebrations.
