Miscellany

Serena Williams has received the 2009 ESPY Award for Best Female Tennis Player.

Kim Clijsters will play in Luxembourg this year. No surprise--she won that tournament many times.

The current issue of the official USTA magazine features a lovely tribute to Monica Seles, written by Martina Navratilova. Tennis also has a nice editorial tribute written by publisher Chris Evert. You can see a photographic retrospective of Seles' victories here.

Today is the 46th anniversary of the founding of Fed Cup.

The Tennis Week interview this week is with Caroline Wozniacki.

Thanks for the post - I'm going to get myself a copy. I wonder how Kim will do on her return. Will be good to have her back :)

I'm curious, too, Miss L. I think she will probably do pretty well. My concern is how long her body will hold up--her battered body was one of her main reasons for leaving.
