If you read Sven Groenevelds great story about Wimbledon and its traditions and clothing restrictions you know what we are talking about. Today’s question is. Drumroll please. Nothing personal and we are just saying that Serena’s knickers today are bright pink and certainly comprise more than 10 percent of her overall outfit. It’s been this way for years. This year her skirt seems longer on her dress so maybe the panties aren’t so obvious ? ….just saying …..

Three great apps every tennis player and fan needs !

The free Wimbledon app is fantastic. The free Sven Groenevelds app is fantastic ( tennis gps ) and the Tennis Channel everywhere app is free and fantastic.

Justin Gimelstob is a Bromance kind of guy. Goes so well with the Hollywood crowd he often hangs with. What’s the point ? It just seems like two out of three of his good buddies are really having great seasons. First it was Tommy Haas , Tommy is a giant killer again. Then it was the rebirth of James Blake. Wow what a great Wimby these two vets are enjoying. Now if he could just get Mardy Fish well and back out there. Ok. Justin’s not a miracle worker but there must be some confidence that comes from this Bromance thing…

The grass is always greener ? We think so. We’ve seen the grass everywhere. Including Panchos quick trip to Ireland. We decided. The ” Lawns ” at Wimbledon are in a league of their own.

Ok. Since we were speaking about ladies knickers. There’s a rumor that Bethanie Mattek – Sands may be wearing a pair of commemorative lace panties signed by the babe of the 1949 Wimbledon championships. The recently dearly departed Gussy Moran. Beth wanted to pay tribute the the original fashion lady of tennis. Gertrude Augusta Moran knew how to make a fashion statement.
