Kim Clijsters is one of only two MOTHERS to have won a major grand slam.

The first one was Evonne Goolagong of Australia in 1980.

Now! Now! Just taking advantage of the currents news about Serena, she did at least shake Clister’s hand on the way out, just lucky the camera was there otherwise that poor line judge might’ve been in for a serious hurtin’.

Just like Odinga’s wife.

Ugly oozing from the inside.

Serena’s not married yet but if that day ever comes her husband better be of football player stock or he will rue the day he married the likes of her.

Serena was fined $10,000 for her threatening comments in the Open. I’m guessing her taxes for playing in the State of New York are higher than that.

That’s why she’s a token owner of the Dolphins! Hard to turn down the boss when she asks you out, no matter how many cheerleaders you’d rather be with.

This guy here, he better run as fast as he can in the opposite direction, Serena will be making his frail but swallow a lot of tennis balls...
