Serena Williams wins, Roddick loses at French Open
PARIS — Serena Williams looked ill, and not only because she had lost five games in a row at the French Open. Battling a cold, Williams received a visit during a changeover from a trainer, who checked her temperature and gave her pills. Then came a third-set surge, and Williams beat 18-year-old Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova on Saturday, 6-1, 1-6, 6-2. There was no prescription to help Andy Roddick, who lost to Russian qualifier Teimuraz Gabashvili 6-4, 6-4, 6-2. Roddick threw rackets and argued with the umpire, but the fits of temper failed to produce a turnaround against an opponent ranked 114th. The top-ranked Williams appeared in danger when she fell behind 5-love in the second set and summoned the trainer. “Just ran out of a little energy out there,” she said, “just fighting a cold and fighting sickness.” Soon Williams’ court movement improved, her strokes steadied and she advanced to the fourth round. “Doesn’t matter the score, especially against her,” Pavlyuchenkova said. “She’s a good fighter. She’s really confident and she is Serena.” The seesaw victory assured Williams of retaining the No. 1 ranking after the tournament. Other winners included Yaroslava Shvedova of Kazakhstan and wild card Jarmila Groth of Australia, with both advancing to the fourth round at a major tournament for the first time.

Serena Williams Studies To Become Nail Technician
Tennis player Serena Williams is using her downtime to become a nail technician, enrolling at the Palm Beach Nail School to become certified, Page Six reports. Williams wrote on her blog: No one likes getting their nails done more than I do. As a matter of fact I go every 4 days to get a manicure and every 7 days for a pedicure. So, I had a brilliant idea to get certified to be a nail tech. Williams will have to take 240-hours worth of classes to become certified, which she plans to do within the year. She also blogged about getting ready for the first class, buying Hello Kitty containers and a backpack: Not only do I plan on being the top student to graduate from my nail school, but I also intend on being the most fashionable! We have to wear blue scrubs.

Serena Williams Wins 2010 Australian Open
MELBOURNE, Australia — Serena Williams won her second straight Australian Open championship, ending Justine Henin’s hopes of a Grand Slam title in her return from retirement with a 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 victory Saturday. Williams withstood a determined challenge from Henin before securing her fifth Australian Open title overall and 12th Grand Slam singles championship overall, tying Billie Jean King. King was at the stadium on Saturday night to take part in a pre-match ceremony to honor the 40-year anniversary of Margaret Court’s four Grand Slam tournament wins in 1970. “Billie, we are tied,” Williams said. “So I’ve reached my goal.” Williams’ five Australian titles is the most by any woman in the Open Era, since 1968, surpassing the four held by Margaret Court, Evonne Goolagong Cawley, Steffi Graf and Monica Seles. Court holds 11 Australian Open titles overall, most coming before 1968. Henin, who had most of the crowd support at Rod Laver Arena, couldn’t match her fellow Belgian Kim Clijsters’ feat of winning in her Grand Slam comeback tournament. Clijsters won last year’s U.S. Open in her return from a two-year retirement after getting married and having a daughter. Williams won the last four games to clinch the championship in just over two hours, falling on her back in celebration after match point. “It was definitely a tough match mentally and physically,” Williams said. “We were both out there to prove something, and I think we did at the end of the day.” It was an impressive run by Henin.
