| | |  Quote of the Week - Venus Williams
In a press interview Venus Williams reflected on what she was doing eight years ago when she won the first of her grand slam titles at Wimbledon. Her answer? Reading Harry Potter. Quote:
"I'm not sure what that girl in 2000 was thinking," seventh seed Williams said after dispatching Thailand's Tamarine Tanasugarn 6-4 6-3 in the quarter-finals on Tuesday.
"I think she was reading a Harry Potter book. The 28-year-old Venus also reads the Harry Potter book, so not much has changed. It's still good times, and I love that," she grinned.

LOL the great Venus Williams reads Harry Potter on her down time 
btw, i saw that game with Tanasugarn. that was a really good match, very gripping. Tanasugarn sure made Williams earn that title.

AH! Now I REALLY want her to win this year! lol Maybe Harry Potter can lend Serena some power for the Zheng match! Quote:

Yeah, everyone thought she'd knock Tammi out easily, but that was a good one. I was surprised, good to see the fight in both of them.

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
