Guess who I saw tonight?!?!? Someone FAMOUS....
Venus Williams!!!!! :)
She's not as huge (muscles wise) as I imagined but she's very tall. And boy does she have a lot of power!!!! She was playing doubles and they won the first set 6-0 in about 15 min! The second set did not go as well but they won the 10 point tie-breaker...just barely! The great thing about the Qatar Tennis Open is the tiny court so you're still close to the court even in the last row. It was great. I can't wait to see her play singles.
I also saw the Isreali player, Shahar Peer, in doubles and Ankur saw the controversial Indian player, Sania Mirza. She was the one who had her bare feet near the Indian flag and caused all kinds of drama. She was also criticized as a Muslim for wearing a tennis skirt (what else is she supposed to wear?). Unfortunatly she had leg cramps and had to forfeit tonight.
The Qatar Tennis Open continues through the weekend. Hopefully we can make it to the finals!!!
