Monica Seles is apparently dating upstate New York billionaire Tom Golisano, who owns the Sabres.
Can you blame her? Look at this face!
Now I should make a joke about the score being love-love. BUT I WILL NOT!

"I'm going to get you in the locker room for that, you don't know me."

Novak Djokovic makes an attempt at being funny in this viral video for head.com. Excuse me for not loving this like everyone else, but I am not a fan of the Serb. After attending his match with Andy Roddick last year at the US Open, his actions rubbed me the ...

Russian ex-pat Maria Sharpova gets all bundled up in the Russian version of Vogue magazine that hits the Moscow news stands in November. Personally, I think she's wearing way too much in these photos. Can't the Russian Vogue editors at least put her in a Mink bikini or pool-side with ...

Let me first say that I think Novak played a smart match. He used Andy Roddick's power against him by blocking back most of his serves. What wasn't smart was the way he handled the post match interview. I know Roddick said some things (probably in jest), but Djokovic should ...
