Better luck next year to Venus Williams

[Paul-Antwerp]

Today was the final of the tennis tournament of Antwerp. With Venus Williams being able to win this tournament for the third time in a span of less than five (four actually) years, she could win and take home the Antwerp Diamond Trophy, a diamond-encrusted trophy raquet with a value of approximately 1.3 mio $.

Unfortunately, she lost in a breathtaking match to Amélie Mauresmo. Next year will be Venus'''' last chance to take home the raquet, that she longs for so much.

On the other hand, the raquet holds a high number of stones, but none of super-ideal quality. If she does not win next year, she should be aware that Antwerp also offers higher quality diamonds, and I am sure that she will like the name.

Just joking,

Oooo that hurt Belle. It definitely was a double fault.

I happened to stumble into this. I guess it was a foot fault.
