Oh Boy, Serena williams is back again in Breaking news but for wrong reasons.  Serena Williams has lost all her temper in the latest Semi Final match of the US open.

The incident occured during her Semi-Final match with Kim Clijsters, with Serena being called for a foot fault during her second serve. She then approached the line judge with a barrage of abuse, which led to a code violation against her, causing her to lose the point and match to Clijsters.

As you can see in the video, Serena certainly doesn’t hold back in her choice of words, although they have been censored by the TV broadcasters.

I have added the video below, have a look at it

John Albert Kramer, the wimbledon star and the united states single champion, also a Well known Legend of the Tennis world has died.

The report of his death was announced  by ESPN’s Cliff Drysdale in the on going semi final match between Rafael Nadal  and Juan Martin Del Potro.

John Kramer is a powerful promoter of Tennis of his days and is regarded as the most influential personality of the tennis history.

John Albert Kramer was born in Las Vegas on Aug. 1, 1921, the son of a brakeman for the Union Pacific Railroad. He learned to play tennis in the Los Angeles area as a teenager when his family moved there. His idol was Ellsworth Vines, the former United States Nationals and Wimbledon champion, whom he played against in workouts.

Kramer won the united states singles championship at 1946 and he consecutively retained the title at 1947. He won his first ever wimbledon title at  1947.

Kramer also  took over as promoter of the pro tour in 1952 and expanded it into an international operation, the players transporting a portable court in a host of one-night stands. In a 12-day period in 1957, Kramer’s entourage made 11 appearances in 8 cities, from South Africa to the Philippines.

Wilson Sporting Goods sold millions of Jack Kramer-autographed wooden racquets, Kramer receiving a percentage of the sales revenue. He was a longtime commentator for American network broadcasts and for the BBC at Grand Slam events.

The dead of Kramer is a huge loss for the game of tennis. His talent was well spoken by his way of handling tactics for the tennis game. His loss can never be fulfilled by any other person.

Richard Seymour

Looks like its official now that the Patriots have traded Richard Seymour to Raiders. Well, atleast they have been confirmed by Mike Reiss of the Boston Globe and Adam Schefter of  ESPN have tweeted about it in Twitter.com.

Later The Patriots themselves have confirmed the news again via Twitter. Looks like Twitter is becoming the official platform to pass the news to the masses.

Richard Seymour was drafted by the Patriots in the first round (sixth overall) in the 2001 NFL Draft out of Georgia and has been a part of three Super Bowl Teams. He was named to the Pro Bowl five times in his career (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006).

In 101 career games with the Pats, Seymour had 357 tackles, 39 sacks and two interceptions.

The 2009 US Open Tennis tournament began yesterday, and some good games have already been played. Britain’s Andy Murray play Latvian Ernests Gulbis in the first round of the US Open.

Murray Uses Patient Game to Beat Big-hitting Gulbis. Andy Murray played a patient, steady game to defeat big-hitting Ernests Gulbis of Latvia 7-5 6-3 7-5.

In the first set, Murray traded baseline blows with 95th-ranked Gulbis and the Latvian responded with wild misses and blistering winners and pushed the Scotsman to five set points before finally succumbing to a service break in the 12th game.

Andi Murray, runner-up last year (the champ was Roger Federer) in his first grand slam final, then varied his attack by mixing in forays to the net and took advantage of mounting mistakes from Gulbis, who had 51 unforced errors, 30 more than Murray.

Murray advanced to a second-round match against 87th-ranked Paul Capdeville of Chile.

The only two male tennis players who are believed to travel regularly on private jets are Roger Federer, the world No 1, the US Open champion for the past five seasons and the greatest racket-swinger of all time, and Ernests Gulbis, the world No 95 from Latvia.

Ricky Pointing loses temper  for getting out!!!  Hard to believe? Or Is it a common act when a cricketer got himself out in a crucial match.

I think its just a common act done by Ricky pointing who failed to win the third test of the ongoing ashes tournament therby ending the  third test match in a draw.

Now, comon skipper you couldnt possibly fight with Nature. Every cricket fan are aware of the fact about the rain which almost took 2 days of the play.

A UK’s Newspaper reports that,after being out by Graeme Swann’s ball , Ricky Pointing smashed the door in dressing room out of rage and anger. The ball bowled by Graeme Swann is now among the strongest contender for the Ball of the century award.

Host club Warwickshire made light of incident and its cricket operations manager Keith Cook said, “We have to make all sorts of running repairs all over the ground.

“I’ve not had any complaints, but if a batsman has lost his temper when he’s out it wouldn’t be the first time,” he added. Australia is 0-1 down in the five-match series after losing the second Test at Lord’s.

Brazil’s Ronaldo underwent surgery on his broken left hand on Wednesday, his club Corinthians said in a statement.

The team doctor said earlier this week that the striker was expected to be out for five to six weeks with the injury which he sustained in Sunday’s 3-0 Brazilian championship defeat by Palmeiras.

“Ronaldo is doing well and should be discharged from hospital on Thursday,” the club statement said. Ronaldo has not played for Brazil since the last World Cup in 2006.
