Serena and Venus Williams started the match out fast, with powering from all sides of the court. They managed to win the first set with 1-break.

James Blake, the one, who I think is responsible for yesterdays-omen-day, causing a string of top seeds and favorites to fall out of the Tennis tournament, has lost today.
He was playing brilliant against another brilliant player, named, Fernando Gonzalez of Chile. The match was very close, with Fernando Gonzalez prevailing 11-9 in the last set.
Fernando Gonzalez d. James Blake 4-6 7-5 11-9 in 2h52. Stats are here.
Wow, This tournament is crap, obviously, no top seed is allowed to take gold. All favorites have fallen in the quarters. I don’t know how this match went on, but it’ll probably have been the aggressive Safina against the passive and defensive Jankovic.
So It’s obvious to say that;
Safina Dinara d. Jelena Jankovic 62 57 63 in 2h24. Stars are here.
The Williams sisters got safely through to the quarters of the Olympics Tennis Doubles Event. Luckily, Now I have something left to watch at, or the Beijing 2008 Olympics would be even worse than the Athens 2004.
Both having lost in the quarters of the single’s event, didn’t seem to be bothered much, and just went straight onto the doubles, to win the first set by 75. In the second set, they pushed and sealed the higher pace-tempo and won it with 62.
S. Williams/V. Williams d. A. Morita/A. Sugiyama 75 62 in 1h13. Stats are here.
Next they will be facing a Russian Roulette, lol, Vera Zvonareva/Elena Vesnina. The match will be played last on Show Court 2, probably within the next 30 minutes.
C’mon Team Williams !

With his ground and world record breaking methods do win medals at the Olympics, he has become the strongest and best Olympian ever.
If he wins 8 medals in total during the Beijing 2008 Olympics, he’ll be the greatest, and will have won the most medals ever in one Olympic Event, and also in multiple Olympic Events.
Like Jacques Rogge of the IOC said:
C’mon Phelps, you can do it, the only one I have left, to route for =)
Well it’s indeed a big number, but what does this 12,000 represent, or relate to? I’ll tell you the secret right after the break.
Hah! I always wanted to say that, break in this example, just means another line !
Well I came across this article that says, that Michael Phelps eats 12,000 calories a day ! 9,500 more calories than a normal guy should eat, according to the FDA. Oh well, in his case it’s normal, he trains 30 hours per week and wins enough medals, to make it justified.
But then, what does he eat to obtain 12,000 calories? He once told NBC in an interview that his eating-schedule might contain the following things.
