His best result at a Grand Slam tournament has been reaching the quarter final stage at the 2007 Australian Open and the 2008 US Open.
In November 2007, Fish became engaged to Stacey Gardner, a California attorney and a "Briefcase Model" on NBC's Deal or No Deal. The two were married in a Jewish wedding ceremony on September 2008. Fish's friend and fellow tennis player James Blake served as groomsman. He is also good friends with Andy Roddick and Bob and Mike Bryan.

He has a group of fans called "The Fishheads" who travel with him and cheer him on during matches.
In April 2011, Fish overtook compatriot Andy Roddick to become the American No.1 in the ATP rankings. He is currently ranked World No. 9.
Fish is the son of a tennis teaching professional and a housewife, Tom and Sally Fish. He was born in Edina, Minnesota. In 1984, at the age of two, a Minneapolis TV station ran a profile of Fish hitting tennis balls from the baseline over the net. In 1986, Fish's family moved to Vero Beach, Florida.
He attended Saddlebrook Academy for tenth grade, then moved to Boca Prep in Boca Raton, Florida for his junior and senior years of high school.

Fish played well in 2004, reaching the finals at the SAP Open in San Jose, California and in the Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Germany. Later that year, in August, Fish obtained a silver medal for the United States at the 2004 Summer Olympics, when he lost in five sets to Chilean Nicolás Massú. Fish defeated Juan Carlos Ferrero and Fernando González to reach the final.
In 2005, Fish injured his left wrist. It eventually required two surgeries, and as a result he only played 17 matches in the year.

Dinara Safina Russian professional tennis player Unseen Pictures & Biography

2011-06-25T02:25:00.001-07:00

Dinara Mikhailovna Safina, born April 27, 1986 in Moscow, is a Russian professional tennis player of Tatar origin. Safina's career high ranking is World No. 1.
Safina was runner up in singles at the 2008 French Open, 2009 Australian Open, and the 2009 French Open, falling to Ana Ivanović, Serena Williams, and Svetlana Kuznetsova, respectively. She has had success at Grand Slam events in women's doubles by winning the 2007 US Open with Nathalie Dechy. She also won the Olympic silver medal in women's singles at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
She is the younger sister of former World No. 1 men's player Marat Safin. She and her brother are the first brother-sister tandem in tennis history to both achieve #1 rankings.Safina's game is built on her powerful groundstrokes which are hit heavy and deep. Her forehand is the side where she hits more winners. Her backhand hits accurately and can open up the court. She also produces a high number of unforced errors. For her height, her serve has been considered lacking in power and precision. It is inconsistent, thus delivering a high number of double faults. This is often attributed to an unusually high, and therefore inconsistent ball toss. Safina's best surface is clay, while grass courts are her weakest surface. Through the years, she has struggled with the mental aspect of tennis. Her groundstrokes often turn erratic when she struggles with her mental game.
Safina was born in Moscow, Russia to ethnic Tatar parents. Her mother, Rauza Islanova, was her trainer when she was younger; while her father is director of the Spartak tennis club in Moscow. Her brother Marat is a former world No. 1 on the ATP Tour. Speaking of growing up in such a successful tennis family, Safina stated: "Being the little sister in such a big tennis family is not an easy situation. Maybe that's why it took me longer to develop. My father is very competitive, but my parents didn't put pressure on me. I wanted to find my identity. I wanted to be something by myself, like being a big player by myself. So at the beginning I was putting too much pressure on myself. But then gradually I found myself, and I learned how to do better with that situation." At age 8, Safina and her family moved to Valencia, Spain, and as a result Safina speaks fluent Spanish as well as Russian and English.
Previously, Safina was coached by Glen Schaap, former coach of Anna Chakvetadze and Nadia Petrova, and Željko Krajan, who worked with her during her rise to No. 1 in 2009. From May 2010, she begun working with Gastón Etlis. Their partnership ended after several months and since February 2011 she has been working with Davide Sanguinetti.
Safina's idols growing up were Steffi Graf, Martina Hingis and Lindsay Davenport. More recently, she has stated that she idolises Rafael Nadal. Safina states that she has few friends on the Tour, saying: "I'm not really looking for some friends because I have my team. I travel with my coach and my fitness coach. So, with both of them, I have enough. I don't need anyone else."
Unseeded at the 2011 ASB Classic in Auckland, New Zealand, Safina played well but was defeated in three sets 6–3, 6–7, 6–1 by in-form defending champion and No.2 seed Yanina Wickmayer in the first round. Wishing to bounce back from her loss in her first match of the year, Safina competed in the 2011 Moorilla Hobart International, facing Marion Bartoli in the first round. She lost again, managing to win only one game, 0–6, 1–6. Unseeded at the Australian Open, she was beaten by Kim Clijsters 0–6, 0–6 in the first round. She was the first former #1 player ever—man or woman—to receive a "double bagel" 6–0, 6–0 at a Grand Slam tournament since the start of the Open Era. As a result, her ranking dropped to number 117 in the world, the first time she was out of the top 100 since 2002.
At the 2011 Malaysian Open, Dinara was able to end her 6-match losing streak with her first win since September 2010, defeating Han Xinyun 6–2, 6–0 and taking the last 11 games of the match. Then she lost against Safarova in singles, but she won her ninth career title in doubles, paired with Galina Voskoboeva. Safina next competed at BNP Paribas Open, and her improved form continued with a run to the fourth round, including wins over 26th seed Daniela Hantuchova, 7–6(2), 6–4 and world No. 4 Samantha Stosur, 7–6(2), 6–4. Her run came to an end against Maria Sharapova in the fourth round, where she won only two games. Safina returned to the top 100 for her performance at the tournament.

Daniela Hantuchova Slovak professional tennis player

2011-06-12T00:06:00.000-07:00

Daniela Hantuchová ( born April 23, 1983) is a Slovak professional tennis player. She turned professional in 1999 and had her breakthrough year in 2002, when she won her first Tier I tournament and ended the year in the top ten.
She is currently coached by Larri Passos. Her WTA Tour mentor in the "Partners for Success" program was Martina Navrátilová, who was her doubles partner for a brief period in early 2005. As of June 6, 2011, Hantuchová is ranked World No. 28 in singles.
In 2005, she became the fifth female tennis player to have won the mixed doubles title in all four Grand Slam tournaments during her career.
Hantuchová was born in Poprad, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia) to father Igor, a computer scientist, and mother Marianna, a toxicologist.
When her parents split up in 2003, Hantuchová's performances temporarily worsened. At Wimbledon that year, she failed to convert several match points and was seen weeping on court. She also suffered from a weight problem during this period. She was suspected of being anorexic but denied this.
Hantuchová speaks three languages (Slovak, English and German), and was trained as a classical pianist. She is thought to be a perfectionist and puts a lot of pressure on herself during her training. She qualified for university in Slovakia but deferred it to pursue tennis.

She appeared in the 2009 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition alongside Maria Kirilenko and Tatiana Golovin in a pictoral entitled Volley of the Dolls.Daniela Hantuchova Picture

Melanie Oudin (born September 23, 1991 in Marietta, Georgia, United States) is an American tennis player and former World Junior No. 2. Her career high rank is World No. 31, which she achieved on April 19, 2010.
Oudin is of French descent and has a twin sister, Katherine, and a younger sister, Christina. She was home schooled from seventh grade on so that she could have more time for tennis practice, but admits envying her twin sister's experiences at a regular school. She says her idol is Justine Henin because "she proved you don't have to be tall to win things." Her grandmother inspired her and her sister to play tennis when she gave them racquets and lessons when they were young.

Melanie Oudin Image
Oudin is a defensive counterpuncher. She uses her speed and footwork to get balls back from the other side of the court. Her best shot is her forehand which she can really hit with power. Her slice backhand is basically defensive but accurate. Oudin can get any ball near the service line or close to the baseline which gives her more speed and power on her shots. Good dropshot and clean volley are useful assets in her game as well.

LeBron James. Dwight Howard. Kobe Bryant. What do they all have in common? They won't be appearing as the cover athlete on 2KSports NBA 2k11 basketball game. That honor apparently belongs to Michael Jordan. Yes, that Michael Jordan. Lets make some history, shall we?
...multiple sources have told ESPN that the company has gone in a completely different direction, signing basketball legend Michael Jordan as its new spokesman. This will be the first time that a former player will appear on the front of the box for 2K, and with Jordan taking over majority ownership of the Charlotte Bobcats, it will also be the first time that a team owner will endorse the popular franchise. In addition to acting as cover model for "NBA 2K11," the speculation is that Jordan will also be digitized into a playable character. This means gamers will become the virtual MJ in hopes of reliving some of his trademark moments. (via ESPN)

Apparently, the brand that is Michael Jordan is still strong enough to push video game sales, at least according to 2K Sports. So strong in fact, that not only did 2K Sports choose Jordan over the superstars of today, they also decided to add some other players from the Jordan era,

There's more. I've even heard whispers that 2K has been in negotiations with several players (both teammates and opponents) from the Jordan era to appear in "2K11" to help gamers and history buffs accurately recreate the heated competition between the classic Bulls and rivals like the Celtics, Knicks and Cavaliers. But since 2K needs to ink all former players to individual contracts, it's still up in the air whom the company will be able to sign in time to appear in the game.

If I remember correctly, before it was all said and done, Michael Jordan wasn't even appearing in the annual basketball games, because developers weren't willing to shell out the cash for the license to use his image and likeness (ala Barry Bonds in baseball games). Now, all of these years later, not only do we get MJ in a video game...but on a cover? Will wonders never cease...

The Slovenian - one of the world's top doubles players - has happy memories of Wimbledon for she won the junior title here back in 1998. Has yet to make a big impact at senior level though with the last 32 being her best effort. Recent form gives hope that reaching the second week is possible though. Made the fourth round at the French Open where title favourite Serena Williams was sent packing. A lower seed who could shine.

KATARINA SREBOTNIK | Slovenia

Katarina Srebotnik was born March 12, 1981 in Slovenj Gradec, Slovenia. Srebotnik is a Slovenian professional tennis player, coached by Biljana Veselinovic. Srebotnik is right-handed, 1.80 m, weighs 65 kg and lives in Dubai. She reached a career-high ranking of No. 20 on the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour on August 7, 2006. Her nickname amongst fans is Kata. Although she has a career-high of No. 20 in singles, she has had better results in the doubles circuit. With 18 victories in WTA doubles tournaments (as of July 2008) and a career-high doubles ranking of No. 3, she is considered as one of the best doubles players on the WTA Tour.

In juniors, Srebotnik won the 1998 Wimbledon singles title and was singles runner-up at the US Open. Srebotnik attained the second spot on the junior rankings in 1997 and 1998. Katarina Srebotnik made her ITF Debut in 1995. She won the ITF singles tournament in Ismailia (1996), Zadar (1997); Sibenik (1998) and in Dubai (1999). In 1998, Srebotnik won her first Tour doubles title at the Makarska Open (with Tina Krizan), and became later that year doubles runner-up at Maria Lankowitz (also with Krizan). In 1999, her win at the ITF tournament in Dubai, gave her 'feed up' direct entry into her first-ever singles Tour event at Estoril, where she became the fourth player ever to win her Tour debut event by defeating Kuti Kis in the final. She broke into the Top 100 on April 12, 1999 at No.88. Srebotnik reached the semifinal at Palermo, and played in her first Grand Slam main draw at Roland Garros, losing in the second round; but winning the mixed doubles tournament with Norval.

Katarina Srebotnik's best season to date was in 2005, highlighted by two singles and four doubles titles, and her career-best victory over Amelie Mauresmo. Srebotnik captured her third and fourth career Tour singles titles at Auckland (defeating Shinobu Asagoe in the final, while she also teamed with Asagoe for the doubles title) and in Stockholm (defeating world No.14 Anastasia Myskina in the final, and teaming with Emilie Loit for doubles title). Srebotnik was the only player in 2005 to sweep singles and doubles titles twice. She also finished runner-up at Portoroz, losing to Koukalova (now Zakopalova ) in three sets in the final. She also became runner-up in doubles with Kostanic.

Srebotnik reached the quarterfinal five times, at Tier II Antwerp (lost to Anastasia Myskina), Tier I Charleston (losing to Elena Dementieva in three sets), Budapest (losing to Laura Pous Tio in a third set tie-break), Tier I Zurich (upset No.4 Amelie Mauresmo 6–2 6–0 for her career-best victory en route; losing to Ana Ivanovic) and Hasselt (losing to Safina in a third set tie-break). Her best Grand Slam finish was the third round at Wimbledon (losing to Maria Sharapova 6–2, 6–4, but she was the only player to break the defending champion's serve before Sharapova's semifinal loss to Venus Williams).

A new career-high singles ranking of No.28 came on November 7. In addition to Auckland and Stockholm, Srebotnik also won doubles titles at Budapest and Hasselt (both with Émilie Loit). She reached the US Open mixed doubles final (with Zimonjic; losing to Daniela Hantuchova/Mahesh Bhupathi). Srebotnik withdrew from Canberra with a left adductor strain.

Andre Agassi Shining Teeths

Andre Kirk Agassi was born on April 29, 1970. He is a former number one male singles tennis player. He has won eight Grand Slam singles titles, and has an Olympic gold medal in singles. He is typically considered by most to be one of the greatest tennis players ever. He is also said to be the best service returner in tennis. He has had a style all his own, and he has been a very charismatic player. He helped to revive the popularity of tennis in the 1990s. He was once married to actress Brooke Shields, but is now married to tennis champion Steffi Graf.

Andre Agassi is only one of six men to have earned a Career Grand Slam. He has also been a part of a winning Davis Cup Team as well as winning 17 Master's Series tournaments, which makes him the current record holder. He has won four Australian Opens, one French Open, one Wimbledon, and two U.S. Open Grand Slams. He has been rated as the seventh best male player for the period of 1965 until 2005 by Tennis Magazine. Agassi finally retired from professional tennis on September 3, 2006 following sciatica due to two bulging discs in his back, a spondylolisthesis, and a bone spur that has interfered with a nerve. Andre Agassi is also known for his charity work, as he is the founder of the Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, which has raised more than sixty million dollars for children at risk in Southern Nevada. The foundation has also opened the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy located in Las Vegas. This school is for at-risk children and is a K-12 charter school.

Andre Agassi was born in Las Vegas, Nevada to Emmanuel Mike Aghassian and Elizabeth Betty Agassi. Agassi's father is of Assyrian and Armenian descent, and once represented the country of Iran in boxing during two Olympic games. He later immigrated to the United States. Andre's mother, Betty, is a survivor of breast cancer. Agassi's father was a domineering dad and coach. Agassi has remarked that his father was not particularly interested in his son's education, and in fact believed that it was interfering with his tennis training. At the age of thirteen, Andre was sent to the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Florida. He was supposed to only stay for eight weeks, but Bollettieri called his father and said that he could play there for free due to Agassi's impressive talent. At the age of sixteen, Agassi became a professional. By the conclusion of his first year, Agassi already ranked World #91. During his career, Agassi earned over 30 million dollars in prize money. He also earned more than 25 million a year on endorsements alone.

On April 19, 1997, Andre Agassi married Brooke Shields, an actress. The couple later filed for divorce, and on April 9, 1999, they were officially divorced. Andre met Steffi Graf, an extraordinary female tennis player. They began dating and were married on October 22, 2001. Their son, Jaden Gil, was born four days after their wedding on October 26 of 2001. They also have a daughter named Jaz Elle, who was born on October 3, 2003. They currently live in the area of Las Vegas and have a few vacation homes. Andre Agassi has written his autobiography that was published in November of 2009. In his biography, "Open: An Autobiography," he admits to using methamphetamine in 1997 and testing positive for it. He has also admitted that his long hair that he was well known for was actually a wig or extensions. He claims that his loss of the 1990 French Open final was because he was concerned his hair piece was falling off, so he was trying to be careful with his movements.

Off of the tennis court, Andre Agassi is well known for his charity. In 1994, Andre began the Andre Agassi Charitable Association, which helps young people in Las Vegas, particularly those at high risk. Because of his charity work, he was given the ATP Arthur Ashe Humanitarian award in 1995 because of his efforts. Agassi's Boys and Girls Club works with 2,000 children throughout the year and has a great junior tennis team. It also has a basketball program as well as a mix of academics and athletics. In 2001, Agassi opened the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy, which is a tuition free school that is for children who are at high risk living in the Las Vegas area. Amazingly enough, his school had a 2009 graduating class that had a 100% graduation rate and 100% college acceptance rate. He also works with Child Haven, a residential facility that helps children who have been neglected or abused. He donated enough money for a six-room classroom that is now called the Agassi Center for Education. Andre's foundation also gave $720,000 to help with the building of the Andre Agassi Cottage for Medically Fragile Children, which helps handicapped or developmentally delayed children as well as children who have been quarantined for infectious diseases.

Azarenka is an aggressive baseliner. She is known for her well-timed and powerful groundstrokes. Her best shot is her backhand which is regarded as one of the strongest currently in the women's game. She can be effective at net, as her drive volley is one of the best in the women's game. Her main weakness' are considered to be her serve, lacking both power and stability on second serve, and her movement due to a lack of sprinting power. Her forehand can also sometimes break down and produce unforced errors, although this has improved over the years.

Ana Ivanovic Serbian Tennis Player Pictures & Biography

2011-02-26T21:36:00.000-08:00

Ivanović's mother Dragana, a lawyer, supports her daughter during most of her matches. Her father Miroslav, a self-employed businessman, attends as many events as he possibly can. Ana has a younger brother, Miloš, with whom she loves to play basketball. Aside from her tennis career, Ivanović also studies finance at a university in Belgrade and Spanish in her spare time.

2011-02-21T04:02:00.000-08:00

Some little known facts about Anna Kournikova:

- For a time, she was a professional tennis player.

- In her career, she appeared in four singles finals, winning none of them.

- That’s not zero wins in Grand Slam finals, that’s in any tournament at all.

- In Texas Hold ‘Em, a hand of an Ace and a King is sometimes referred to as an “Anna Kournikova,” because the initials are the same. And because the hand looks really good, but rarely wins.

- Anna Kournikova was born in Moscow, Russia.

Lee Westwood Professional Golfer

2011-02-14T11:24:00.000-08:00

Athlete, professional golfer. Born Lee Westwood on April 24, 1973, in Worksop, England. Westwood was the only child born to John Westwood, a math teacher, and his wife Trish, a podiatrist. From an early age their son showed a passion for sports and, like his father, a penchant for competitive play. "He and I used to have swimming races on holiday," John Westwood once recalled. "If it was diving, I might give him a mark occasionally and then he would try and beat that mark. We did press-ups against one another. When he was little we would roll cars to see who could get it closer to the edge of the table. We would arm-wrestle. The competition was not vicious. When he won, he got rewarded."

In high school Lee played soccer, rugby, cricket, and competed in cross-country events. But golf seemed to hold his interest more than anything. He'd fallen in love with the sport at the age of 12 when he stayed up late to watch Jack Nicklaus win the 1986 Masters. A year later, his grandparents gave him a partial set of clubs. He birdied a hole his first time out, and by the time he was 15, Westwood had taken home the local junior championship.

His amateur career took off after that, and in 1993 after winning the British Youth Championship, Westwood turned pro. His first few years on the tour proved to be fairly quiet, but then in late 1997, he caught the attention of golf fans on both sides of the Atlantic with three quick victories. The wins catapulted Westwood near the top of the European tour's money list.

In April 1998, Westwood won the Freeport-McDermott Classic in New Orleans, which was followed by two more victories in Europe a month later. Since then, Westwood has been a regular member of Europe's Ryder Cup team, not to mention one of its top scorers; in 2004 and 2006 he was unbeaten in all five of his matches.

Westwood, who made his PGA debut in 1995, has also had several close finishes on some of golf's biggest stages. In 2000 he came in fifth at the U.S. Open. Eight years later, he finished third at the tournament. His Official World Golf Ranking has reached as high as No. 4.

But like Phil Mickelson early in his career, Westwood has been dogged by the perception that he can't close out big tournaments. In recent years, his career has been defined by some heartbreaking losses. At the 2008 U.S. Open he missed a 20-foot birdie that would have sent him into a playoff. At the 2010 Masters he saw his lead in the final round evaporate. A month later, at the Players' Championship, Westwood again fell short, this time to Tim Clark, a little known South African who'd gone winless in his last 200 American tournaments. "Westwood is not a finisher," opined one golf writer after the Players' Championship. "Period."

A cheery person by nature, Westwood, however, continued to express confidence about his game. "While I'm disappointed, I'm pleased with myself," he told reporters. "I think that I've proved to myself and a few others that there is a major championship in me."

Westwood is married to Laurae Coltart, the sister of Scottish golfer and Westwood friend, Andrew Coltart. Laurae and Westwood live on a large farm in Worksop, which features a 330-yard practice ground. The couple has two young children, Sam and Poppy.

Good form led to an international call-up in 1998, after which he signed for the Serie A defending champions Juventus. He had a disappointing season playing on the wing, before joining Arsenal for £11 million in 1999.

It was at Arsenal that Henry made his name as a world-class footballer. Despite initially struggling in the Premier League, he emerged as Arsenal's top goal-scorer for almost every season of his tenure there. Under long-time mentor and coach Arsène Wenger, Henry became a prolific striker and Arsenal's all-time leading scorer with 226 goals in all competitions. The Frenchman won two league titles and three FA Cups with the Gunners; he was nominated for the FIFA World Player of the Year twice, was named the PFA Players' Player of the Year twice, and the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year three times. Henry spent his final two seasons with Arsenal as club captain, leading them to the UEFA Champions League final in 2006. In June 2007, after eight years with Arsenal, he transferred to Barcelona for a fee of €24 million. His first honours with the Catalan club came in 2009 when they won the league, cup and Champions League treble. He went on to achieve an unprecedented sextuple by also winning the Spanish Supercup, the UEFA Supercup and the Club World Cup. In total, Henry has been named in the UEFA Team of the Year five times. In 2010, he joined New York Red Bulls.
Henry enjoyed similar success with the French national team, having won the 1998 World Cup, Euro 2000 and 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup. In October 2007, he surpassed Michel Platini's record to become France's top goal-scorer of all time. Henry retired from international football after the 2010 World Cup. Off the pitch, Henry is an active spokesperson against racism in football, partially due to his own experiences. He married English model Nicole Merry in 2003 and had a daughter with her, but they divorced in 2007. Henry was also one of the top commercially marketed footballers; he was ranked ninth in the world in 2006.

Tatiana Golovin

2011-01-01T05:38:00.000-08:00

Tatiana Golovin (born January 25, 1988) is a French professional tennis player. Her nickname on tour is Tati. She is best known for winning the 2004 Roland Garros mixed doubles event with countryman Richard Gasquet and reaching the singles quarterfinal at the 2006 US Open, losing to eventual champion Maria Sharapova.

She was born in Moscow, but moved to Paris with her parents and obtained French citizenship. She has two sisters, Olga and Oxana. She also spent six years at Nick Bollettieri's tennis camp in Bradenton, Florida and speaks fluent English as a result. She is currently coached by Dean Goldfine, former coach of Todd Martin and Andy Roddick.

Name
As a female her surname in Russian would normally be "Golovina," but as a French citizen she legally has the same surname as her father (of French descent). Russian sources are divided on whether to spell her name in Russian as "Golovin," (Головин) or "Golovina" (Головина) but "Golovin" seems to prevail. She writes her name as "Golovin" although the traditional French transliteration would be "Golovine." In French, the pronunciations of these two spellings differ.

Tatiana Golovin (born January 25, 1988) is an inactive Russian-born French professional tennis player. She is best known for her explosive forehand, which is said to be one of the best at the time as it had no technical flaws. She notably won the 2004 French Open mixed doubles event with Richard Gasquet, and reached the singles quarterfinal at the 2006 U.S. Open, losing to the eventual champion Maria Sharapova. The 22-year-old's highest singles ranking to date is 12. Just as she began experiencing success, in 2008 she was diagnosed with a career threatening disease, Ankylosing spondylitis and was forced to quit playing competitive tennis.
She was born in Moscow but she moved to Paris with her parents, and attained French citizenship. She has two sisters, Olga and Oxana. She also spent six years at Nick Bollettieri's tennis camp in Bradenton, Florida, and she speaks fluent French, English and Russian. She is currently coached by former World No. 1 Mats Wilander, having previously been coached by Brad Gilbert and Dean Goldfine.

This is your life, Wayne Gretzky.

The 48-year-old was sitting with his wife and one of their young sons in a small theater at the Paley Center in Beverly Hills. Both of the boys looked fidgety.

On screen was the U.S. premier of "Kings Ransom," a documentary scheduled to air on ESPN next week as part of a series celebrating the network's 30th anniversary. Future releases include a look at the relationship between the NFL's Raiders and gangster rap culture, directed by Ice Cube. But few chapters in the history of sport could rival Gretzky's NHL trade from Edmonton to Los Angeles in 1988, which was happening in slow motion replay right before the legend's eyes. He laughed, he cried ... or at least he seemed to sniffle when he started to speak after the film.

"If I had to do it all over again, I would tell Peter [Pocklington] again, 'trade me,'" reflected the Great One during his candid talk.

Right now, somebody in Canada is punching their computer screen.

The hockey enforcer inside some Oilers fans might prefer to come after Pocklington, who owned the team during the famous transaction. Or perhaps they want a piece of Bruce McNall, who owned the Kings and essentially bought Gretzky for a European-soccer-style transfer fee of $15 million (U.S.). Both of them, each still friends with their former player, were at the screening and spoke to the crowd.

"It really brought a tear to my eye," admitted Pocklington. "It's been a very emotional evening for me because it was twenty years of my life."

There was a third possible culprit in the room. But it turns out Mrs. Gretzky may not have deserved that Canadian chorus of "Damnit, Janet."

wayne-gretzky-janet-jones.jpg
Ice hockey star Wayne Gretzky was all smiles after his marriage to actress Janet Jones in 1988, less than a month before being traded from Edmonton to Los Angeles. AP photo.
Janet Jones had found success as an actress in Hollywood before her July 1988 wedding to hockey royalty. When Gretzky landed in LaLaLand less than a month later, it was easy to suspect her influence. Newspaper headlines compared her to Yoko Ono.

But Gretzky knew he was shipping out of Edmonton well before the trade, which he helped orchestrate after he realized that a new real estate agent was unavoidable. "I only want to go to two places," he told Pocklington. "LA or Detroit," the latter being just a three-hour drive from his hometown of Brantford, Ontario.

His dad pushed for Detroit. Surprisingly, so did his wife. "It's a hockey city," she reminded her husband. It's technically called Hockeytown, but they'll probably forgive her considering she tried to give the city its biggest bailout this side of Washington, D.C.

In many ways it came down to money, which McNall collected -- literally. A trader in rare coins, he amassed a fortune before adding the Kings, then Gretzky, to his collection. With Edmonton unable to afford the star's market value, they knew he would be gone when his contract expired the following summer. They never entirely lost Gretzky, they just lost him for the one year.

The Oilers sent two additional players to Los Angeles. In exchange, they got $15 million, two players, and three future first-round draft picks. It's probably sacrilegious to suggest this north of the border, but they may have missed a chance to win the Stanley Cup with Gretzky in 1988-89 -- only to make up for it with one in 1989-90.

The greatest player of all time would never hoist the trophy again.

"When I was in Edmonton, Peter [Pocklington] always made me feel like a million dollars," said Gretzky, now worth quite a bit more than that. "He was always my best friend. He was always a shoulder I could lean on. When I got traded, I was probably more mad at Peter than I was at anybody in the world. Now that I got into the management side of things and into coaching, I understood where he came from ... hopefully one day people will understand that he really thought he was doing the best thing for the City of Edmonton and for the Edmonton Oilers."

Gretzky may publicly defend the trade now, but he also understood the move twenty one years ago. Just before his teary announcement in Canada, the owners gave him one final chance to back out.

Soon after, the Kings held their own news conference, thinly veiled as the unveiling of their new uniforms.

"The players looked like bananas on ice," deadpanned McNall.

Nobody was fooled. Gretzky didn't just model the new black-and-silver look when he came out, he spruced up the entire Fabulous Forum -- by filling it with bodies.

Peter Berg, who directed "Kings Ransom," had been a Kings fan before Gretzky arrived and remembered paying $5 for a ticket, then moving down to the glass before the second period. Suddenly, those seats were filled by the likes of President Ronald Reagan.

"I was punching Michael J. Fox to get into the locker room," Berg laughed. "John Candy was throwing Kevin Costner around. It was crazy."

The documentary, lasting about 50 minutes, is very well done. It can be difficult to tell a story when everybody knows the ending. Berg captured a range of emotions from anger (burning and lynching of Gretzky and Pocklington effigies) to glee (look for a blissfully smug still shot of McNall) using vintage footage and some snazzy cinematography.

Gretzky's place in hockey's history books may already be unassailable, but there could be more chapters to write. Last month he gave up a job as head coach of the troubled Phoenix Coyotes, of which he is also part owner.

"I think that one of the most asinine things facing the NHL is the thought of an NHL without Wayne Gretzky coaching a team or somehow being involved," lamented one of the panelists. The entire audience clapped, including the Great One -- who still lives in the LA area.

Kings play-by-play man Bob Miller followed by announcing that General Manager "Dean Lombardi has made an overture to Wayne: 'You come back with the Kings, you can help us.'" Lombardi has acknowledged as much publicly. Few know what that could really entail. Miller, speaking afterward as an observer, pointed out the obvious; It would probably be on Gretzky's terms, though the team would want him doing "more than shaking hands and kissing babies."

What we say the in the heat of the moment always carries the seed of the truth about our sentiments.

Sometimes we come across too strongly or use profane language when we speak extemporaneously and emotionally without taking time to calculate the effect of our words, but one thing is for certain - at those times we tell the truth!

This is why it is ridiculous for Australia's triple Olympic gold medalist Stephanie Rice to expect that her tearful public apologies for making a really gross homophobic comment on Twitter will be believed or accepted.

Rugby is a big deal in Australia and after her team, the Aussie side, squeaked out a narrow victory over arch rival South Africa, Rice joyously tweeted "Suck on that faggots!"

Wow! Not cool at all.

Stephanie had enough time to think about what she was doing and still decided that the best insult she could throw at the opposing side, South Africa, was to call them faggots (which is an insulting term for gay males). Furthermore, she belittled them by telling them to fellate the score/their defeat in their losing effort, i.e. suck on it.

Its not like she blurted these words out, not that that would excuse her anyway, but she wrote them and pressed "send" giving her plenty of time to consider what she was doing.

Now she is tearfully apologizing everywhere and making all kinds of lame excuses for her disgusting behavior.

I am not buying any of it. She made the statement because she is low class and that is how she sees the world. I would much prefer if she would just admit her homophobia rather than further insult people by asking us to believe that she didn't mean to do it.

The fact is she quickly deleted the statement after she had sent it out but it was too late. Jaguar has already dropped her and cancelled her contract and I am sure she will lose other lucrative deals - as she well should.

Why would any respectable company want to be represented by a star athlete who speaks like Rice did? She is a racist, plain and simple. She should not be hired by any firm unless that firm's goal is to insult their homosexual customers and the rest of us who refuse to tolerate hate speech directed at any group or minority.

Martina Hingis (born September 30, 1980) is a professional tennis player from Switzerland. Born in Kosice, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia), Hingis lived for a time in Florida but has now returned to Switzerland. She was named after Martina Navratilova, another tennis player of Czechoslovakian origin.

Biography

At one time ranked #1 in the world for women's singles, she has not played since October 2002 because of chronic foot injuries, and in February 2003 stated that she could not foresee a return to tennis. In her statments, she said that due to her injuries she could not play to a level where she would again be competitive with the best, and was not interested in coping with the pain in her feet to compete at a lesser level.

Like many professional tennis players, Hingis started playing at a very young age. By 5 years of age, she started entering tournaments. In 1996, Hingis partnered with Helena Sukova in the Ladies Doubles event and made history by becoming the youngest person ever to win one of the Wimbledon championships.

In singles play, Martina Hingis won both the Wimbledon championships and the US Open in 1997 and the Australian Open in 1997, 1998and 1999.

In 1998 she won the all four of the Grand Slam in tennis tournaments in doubles.

Martina, sometimes referred to as the "Swiss Miss", was as widely admired for her attractive playing style as her success. Lacking the outright power of even Monica Seles, let alone the current heavy-hitters like Serena Williams, Hingis made up for it with her fluent, precise groundstrokes, skill at the net (enabling her to become an outstanding doubles player), and outstanding shot selection.

Martina was also popular with the tennis-watching public for her usually bright, bubbly demeanour in public. Combined with a not unattractive appearance she was almost a marketer's dream. Her doubles appearances with Anna Kournikova attracted large amount of attention, mainly for this reason.

Martina Hingis speaks 4 languages: Czech, German (in particular Swiss German), English, and some French.

According to a May 2003 article, Hingis is now spending her time studying English, making personal appearances for various sponsors, playing tennis recreationally, and indulging in her love of horseriding. She has been widely reported as dating Sergio Garcia, a high-profile professional golfer.

Marion Jones Biography & Latest Images

2010-12-07T21:33:00.001-08:00

(born October 12, 1975, Los Angeles, California, U.S.) American athlete, who, at the 2000 Olympic Games, became the first woman to win five track-and-field medals at a single Olympics. In 2007, however, she admitted to using banned substances and subsequently returned the medals.

Jones early displayed talent on the track, and her family moved several times during her adolescence so that she could compete on prominent junior-high and high-school teams. By the time she was 12, Jones had begun competing internationally. She was also an accomplished high-school basketball player, winning California's Division I Player of the Year award in 1993. She attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on a basketball scholarship, and in 1994 she helped the women's basketball team win the national title. Jones decided to sit out the 1995–96 basketball season in order to focus on track and on the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia. A series of foot injuries, however, prevented her from trying out for the U.S. Olympic team. She then returned to basketball, and in 1997 she was named the Most Valuable Player of the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament.

After graduating in 1997, Jones concentrated on track. At the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia, she won gold medals in the 100 metres (10.75 sec) and the 200 metres (21.84 sec) and as a member of the 4 400-metre relay team (3 min 22.62 sec); she also claimed bronze medals in the long jump and the 4 100-metre relay. At the 2001 world championships, Jones won gold medals in the 200 metres and the 4 100-metre relay, and she went undefeated during the 2002 season. She took much of 2003 off because of the birth of her son. She returned to athletics in 2004 but was not up to her previous form. At the Olympic Games in Athens that year, she managed only a fifth-place finish in the long jump.

Through much of her career, Jones was suspected of using steroids. In 2003 a federal investigation into illegal steroid distribution by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-operative (BALCO) led to allegations by BALCO founder Victor Conte and Jones's ex-husband, C.J. Hunter, that the sprinter used banned substances. Jones, who had never failed a drug test at that time, denied the allegations. In 2006 she tested positive for a banned substance but was later cleared by a follow-up test. The following year, however, she pleaded guilty to lying to federal investigators about her drug use and admitted to having taken steroids. In November 2007 track and field's international governing body—the International Association of Athletics Federations—annulled all of Jones's results since September 2000, including her Olympic titles. The International Olympic Committee officially stripped Jones of her five medals from the Sydney Games the following month. In January 2008 she was sentenced to six months in prison for providing false statements to federal investigators about her steroid use and for her involvement in a check-fraud scheme.

In an attempt to revive her long-dormant basketball career, Jones signed with the Tulsa Shock of the Women's National Basketball Association in 2010

Marion Jones, the former Thousand Oaks High track star whose personal life has presented as many hurdles as her professional accomplishments, is pregant and about to remarry. Again on both counts.
Obadele Thompson, the 2000 Olympic bronze medalist winner in the 100 meters, announced his engagement to an expectant Jones and said the marriage will take place in private ceremony on Saturday in North Carolina with close friends and family in attendance.
Jones travelled to Barbados in February 2006 to train with Thompson but there was no indication that the two were romantically linked, according to new information posted on Jones' Wikipedia.com bio.
The three-time gold-medal winning sprinter who has battled performance enhancing drug charges, married shot putter C.J. Hunter in 1998. He ended up resigning as track coach at the University of North Carolina (because he was dating Tar Heels star Jones at the time) and ended up banned from the 2000 Olympics when he tested positive for nandrolone. They divorced a year later.
In 2003, Jones gave birth to a son, Tim Jr., named after his father Tim Montgomery, who broke the 100 meter world record in 2002. Montgomery was eventually banned from the sport after admitting to the use of performance enhancing drugs.
Now comes Thompson, a UTEP grad who scored the first-ever Olympic medal for his country.

Maria started hitting tennis balls at the age of four. At the age of six, Maria Sharapova participated in a exhibition in Moscow that featured Martina Navratilova. So, at the age of nine, she began training at Nick Bollettieri's Tennis Academy located in Bradenton, Florida, USA. Therefore, during those two years, she was separated from her mother for two year due to visa restrictions and finances. Maria occasionally travels with her father and works with tennis coach managers Michael Baroch and Robert Lansdorp. During her leisure time off court, Maria's interest includes modeling in fashion, singing, jazz dancing and movies (Pearl Harbor (2001)). Maria enjoys reading books of her interest in the "Sherlock Holmes" and "Pippi Longstocking" collection series. Basically, Maria's favorite dessert is 'anything'. Maria favors Russian music and food, but except for Italian bread.

Yelena Isinbaeva
She has been elected IAAF World Athlete of the Year in three of the last five years and world sportswoman of the year in 2007 and 2009.
Biography
Yelena is one of the greatest athletes of her generation, having set an incredible 27 world records – 15 outdoor and 12 indoor – and won nine straight gold medals in indoor and outdoor championships since breaking through in 2004.

On July 22, 2005, she became the first woman to clear the historic 5-metre barrier in the pole vault.

Yelena's current world records are 5.06m outdoors, a record she set at the IAAF Golden League, Zurich, Switzerland on August 28, 2009, and 5.00m indoors - a record set at the Donetsk indoor meeting on February 15, 2009.

Initially, Yelena trained as an artistic gymnast in her hometown of Volgograd but she had to leave the sport at the age of 15 because she was considered too tall to be competitive in gymnastics. She went on to reach a height of 1.74m.

She turned to the pole vault and made an immediate impact, winning her first major victory at the age of 16 at the 1998 World Youth Games in Moscow (achieving a height of 4.00m). The following year, Yelena cleared 4.10m at the World Youth Championships in Poland to claim her second gold medal.

She was also successful at the 2000 World Juniors, vaulting 4.20m this time. It was also in this year that the women's pole vault became an Olympic event at the Sydney Games.

Yelena continued to improve through the early years of the new millennium and gained her first senior medal with silver at the 2002 European Championships for a 4.55m clearance. She took gold with a leap of 4.65m at the 2003 European Under 23 Championships and just a few weeks later set her first world record - 4.82m – at a meeting at Gateshead, England. But she had to be content with bronze at the subsequent world championships in Paris.

By 2004, the women’s pole vault was really beginning to develop as an event and Yelena won her first major title when she triumphed at the world indoor championships in Budapest, setting a new world best mark of 4.86m and went on to win gold at the Athens Olympics with another new world best of 4.91m.

Serena Williams Biography & Pics

2010-11-30T21:46:00.000-08:00

American tennis player. Born Serena Jameka Williams on September 26, 1981, in Saginaw, Michigan. The youngest of Richard and Oracene Williams' five daughters, Serena Williams, along with her sister Venus, has at various times throughout her career dominated the sport, capturing 11 Grand Slam singles titles and 10 doubles championships.

Serena's father—a former sharecropper from Louisiana determined to see his two youngest girls succeed—used what he'd gleaned from tennis books and videos to instruct Serena and Venus on how to play the game. At the age of three, practicing on a court not far from the family's new Compton, California, home, Serena withstood the rigors of daily two-hour practices from her father.

The fact that the family had relocated to Compton was no accident. With its high rate of gang activity, Richard Williams wanted to expose his daughters to the ugly possibilities of life "if they did not work hard and get an education." In this setting, on courts that were riddled with potholes and sometimes missing nets, Serena and Venus cut their teeth on the game of tennis and the requirements for persevering in a tough climate.
By 1991, Serena was 46-3 on the junior United States Tennis Association tour, and ranked first in the 10-and-under division. Sensing his girls needed better instruction to become successful professionals, he moved his family again—this time to Florida. There, Richard let go of some of his coaching responsibilities, but not the management of Serena and Venus' career. Wary of his daughters burning out too quickly, he scaled back their junior tournament schedule.

In 1995, Serena turned pro. Two years later, she was already No. 99 in the world rankings—up from 304 just 12 months before. A year later, she graduated high school, and almost immediately inked a $12 million shoe deal with Puma. In 1999, she beat out her sister in their race to the family's first Grand Slam win, when she captured the U.S. Open title.

It set the stage for a run of high-powered, high profile victories for both Williams sisters. Over the next decade, Serena alone would win 23 Grand Slam titles—including 10 doubles championships with her sister Venus.

With their signature style and play, Venus and Serena changed the look of their sport as well. Their sheer power and athletic ability overwhelmed opponents, and their sense of style and presence made them stand-out celebrities on the court.

Proving to have much more than just tennis clout, Serena expanded her brand into film, television, and fashion. She developed her own "Aneres" line of clothing, and in 2002 People magazine selected her as one of its 25 Most Intriguing People. Essence magazine later called her one of the country's 50 Most Inspiring African-Americans. She's also made television appearances, and lent her voice to shows such as The Simpsons.

In 2002, she won the French Open, the U.S. Open, and Wimbledon, defeating Venus in the finals of each tournament. She captured her first Australian Open in 2003, making her one of only five women players to have complete grand slam sets. The win also fulfilled her desire to finish off what she'd dubbed "The Serena Slam." In 2008, she won the U.S. Open and teamed with Venus to capture a second women's doubles Olympic gold medal at the Beijing Games.life of serena williams

Alexandra Orlando, 21, CAN

Describing herself as "a rhythmic gymnast, a university student, a loving and helpful daughter, a normal 21-year-old, a dancer, a dreamer and a Starbucks junkie", Orlando has suspended her degree in commerce at the University of Toronto for the Olympics. She is a star in her homeland and appears on the front cover of the August issue of Chatelaine magazine (the Canadian equivalent of Elle). "Just because a sport is dominated by women doesn't make it weak," she has said.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio — LeBron James and teammates Darnell Jackson and Coby Karl have tested positive for Influenza A, and are being treated as if they have the H1N1 virus.

H1N1, also known as swine flu, is a strain of Influenza A, and though the Cavaliers have not gotten back H1N1 test results on the three, the team said it is being proactive in treating players and the traveling party to Texas. The Cavs play at San Antonio on Friday and in Dallas on Saturday.

James, who will travel with the team, returned to practice on Thursday after spending two days resting at home.

Six Cleveland players have had flu-like symptoms. Guard Andre Barrett and forward J.J. Hickson are not making the Texas trip.
