Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
Friend of mine went to FL for the thanksgiving weekend. And guess who was in the line checking in, at the Airport? Venus Ebony Starr Williams
She got a pic (sent it to me via bb) and her autograph.
And she's not even a rabid tennis fan. I HATE HER!!!!!

It was! My friend said Vee was really nice and such a sweetheart. Seems she was on her way to St. Croix. Has to be true and the only way my friend who was returning home to St. Kitts could have met Vee at the Caribbean check-in area at the Miami Airport
I took a screenshot of the pic from her facebook page.

Thanks for posting that, foxy

Looks like she has the braids back though! Woohoo  |

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
She looks absolutely radiant 
Could easily be a picture from 6 or 7 years ago, she seems to have aged really really well.

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
Looks like Venus and Serena will be using this racquet next year. I love it

That racket with the contrasting white grip will look so cool
I do miss the white racket she used in the second half of 07 though. She played so well with it as well they should have let her keep it for 08!

They will definitely use the white overgrips on them. Though Venus seems to switch back and forward between the white and the blue tournagrip sometimes

I was just about to say that about the white racket 
I don't think this one will look too different from the previous/current one. I could barely tell the difference between the current one and the 08-2010 one if they didnt zoom in

Re: Queen Venus' chat thread: Volume 2 :D
I don't know about ya'll but I want Venus to win Wimbledon at least 2 more times really badly.
I love Serena to death but I don't want her surpassing Vee's titles and ending up with more Wimbledons.
SW19 was always Vee's own playground 
So I am hoping the grass goat Venus shows up again the next few years;
The 2000/2001 Venus who ran every ball down
The 2005 Venus who didn't give up
The 2007 Venus who hit the ball so well
The 2008 Venus who didn't drop a set and came to net

She begged talked her sister into leaving the big Nike money behind and wearing EleVen on court, perhaps?
