Serena

Written by Eric Olsen
Published August 27, 2003

Anna is pretty hot and all, modeling her new sports bra on Amazon. But Anna is no longer in the same league with Serena Williams, who is not only the top women's player in the world, but has begun an acting career and is every bit as hot as Anna, as well as being sweet and articulate. Check out this bikini shot from Sports Illustrated. Damn - as Eric Poole says, it just isn't fair.

Re the acting career:

    Serena Williams' dramatic acting debut has been postponed because of her recent knee surgery.

    The tennis star had been scheduled to shoot scenes for the Showtime series "Street Time" in mid-August for an episode to air Oct. 1. Now she's expected to begin shooting Sept. 8 for an episode airing on the cable channel at 10 p.m. EDT Oct. 22.

    Williams, the 2003 Wimbledon winner, will play a reformed gang member on parole.

    "I am looking forward to filming the show. It's something that I am really excited about doing," the 21-year-old said in a statement Tuesday. "It's so nice of them to accommodate me in this way." [AP]

Talk about casting against type ... Go Serena.

I wonder what effect this post might have on Amazon after they get bombarded with all the racist stuff on this site. :)

Is Serena the player who makes all those loud grunting noises when hitting the ball? Or is that her sister? I don't really follow tennis that much but I recall something about grunting noises and that these two had a dad with a "unique" coaching style.

As for Anna Kournikova, she should just quit tennis and get into modeling.
