Chronic Absenteeism Hurts Millions Of Students
'Toddlers & Tiaras': Damitri'ana Wears 'African' National…
Tennis superstar Venus Williams has been a leader in raising awareness of gender equality, playing a key role in persuading the World Tennis Association to finally pay female and male players equally.
I'm guessing Venus' new hairdo, what TMZ's calling the "Zac Efron shag" was essential to her "we can even look like boys, so pay us like boys" campaign.
I think it worked.
However, the reigning Wimbledon Women's Singles champ won't be showing off her shag on the court, as she withdrew early on due to some health issues.
Get 'em next time girl (who's banking just as much as a guy)!

The Williams sisters have carved out some milestones that will leave a everlasting impression on future athletes and sports figures everywhere. I commend the Williams sisters for all their contributions to the sport of tennis and bringing women to the fore front along with powerful women like Billy Jean King, Naritalova, Lindsey Davenport, powerful women of the tennis world, for the future of tennis player male or female will leave a lasting impression on the world.

BUT! i went to see them at the US Open (forgot which year cause it was a blur) in fact the match last (between the sisters) about as long as a man went to go and get a hotdog. when he returned serena had a 900k check and venus a whopping 600k. thats a lot of freakn money yall. and now with the new open series incentives..whoa. im gunna have to make a kid for my retirement. just kidding.

Have two tennis ladies ever resorted to physical confrontation with each other;whether during or after a match? Perhaps slapped the opponent across the face?
