TOP TEN INEXPLICABLE EVENTS OF 2014: SERENA @ WIMBLEDON TOPS THE CHARTS BY RICKY DIMON

Every tennis season delivers plenty of bizarre moments and 2014 was no exception. On both the men's and women's tours, things happened that had to be seen in order to be believed. For now, however, we'll do our best to describe those wild and wacky happenings in writing.

WOMENS TENNIS Update : EVERYTHING THATS HAPPENING Around the World ,O.K. mostly It’s The Asian Swing

What a way to celebrate China's newest big event: On the very day they hold the draw for their new Premier Five, China's best-ever player, Li Na, announces her retirement!

HALEP LOSES AS DOES KERBER , PETKOVIC , VENUS WILLIAMS & MORE

Has the bottom half of the Open draw been taken over by aliens or something? First Agnieszka Radwanska, now this. Admittedly Simona Halep gives the impression of being primarily a traditional-surface player. But Mirjana Lucic-Baroni has always preferred clay and grass, too -- and she just barely beat Shahar Peer.

A PEEK @ THE LADIES US OPEN TENNIS DRAW , LI NA IS MISSING BUT SERENA & SHARAPOVA READY TO MAKE SOME NOISE

Li Na will be missing this year's U. S. Open. And she took a lot of speculation with her. These days, almost every Slam discussion starts with the question, "Can anyone beat Serena Williams?"

SERENA BEATS STOSUR @CINCY TENNIS ALL RESULTS & SCORES

Samantha Stosur led in both tiebreaks -- including 4-0 in the first set tiebreak -- but when it came down to it, it was Serena Williams versus Samantha Stosur, and you know who will blink in those situations! That will cost Stosur three ranking spots, but it still looks as if she'll be one of the Top 24 U. S. Open seeds.

MONTREAL WOMEN’S TENNIS PARTIAL UPDATE & OTHER ODD WTA FACT’S & SCORES

As we write, there is a rain delay in Montreal, and it isn't the first of the day. It looks as if the showers won't last long, but the schedule is pretty badly bollixed. We're going to send this now and possibly send another edition later.

SERENA WILLIAMS WINS STANFORD TENNIS EVENT & WINS HER 61ST TITLE

WIMBLEDON REVIEW & PREVIEW / ANDY MURRAY HAD A BAD DAY @ THE OFFICE WITH THE ROYALTY IN THE ROYAL BOX / ROGER FEDERER GLIDES THRU THE EVENT INTO THE SEMI-FINALS

Only one champion remains in the women’s draw as two Czech lefties Lucie Safarova and Petra Kvitova will face each other in the semi-final. Kvitova owns the head to head 5-0 but they have had some humdinger of matches.

WIMBLEDON RECAP : ANDY MURRAY LOSES TO DIMITROV & A QUICK UPDATE ON CANADIANS & LADIES

Most of the buzz in the tennis world on this last Wednesday of Wimbledon is about the men who have bowed out in the last few days. Great Britain’s hopes for a repeat of last year have been dashed. The man who was a winner then was the first British champ in 77 years.

BOUCHARD AND RAONIC CONTINUE TO WRITE HISTORY AT WIMBLEDON FOR CANADA / BOUCHARD ET RAONIC CONTINUENT D’ÉCRIRE L’HISTOIRE À WIMBLEDON

SHAKEDOWN DAY ( WAKE UP USTA DAY ) @ WIMBLEDON , NO AMERICAN’S LEFT IN DRAW EXCEPT FOR JUNIORS & LEGENDS. OH & SHARAPOVA TOO.

Wimbledon passes on announcements with an aura of grandeur that often outstrips the issue itself. The second Tuesday though, brought about a communiqué that outlined a sad statistic, at least where US players are concerned. This is the first time since 1911 that no Americans remain in competition in either the women or men’s side of the draws.

EUGENIE BOUCHARD REACHES WIMBLEDON QUARTER-FINALS / BOUCHARD SERA DES QUARTS DE FINALE DE WIMBLEDON

WATCHING SERENA WILLIAMS @ WIMBLEDON BY CHERYL JONES
