Wimbledon Preview

It is a good time to be a tennis fan.  Wimbledon begins today at the All England Club and will continue through July 7.  Here are some of the headlines:

• Roger Federer got the three seed and Rafael Nadal is the fifth seed.  Consequently, they could potentially meet in the quarterfinals.
• Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova are taking verbal jabs at each other's personal lives.  Serena Williams is the one seed and heavy favorite to win the tournament.  Sharapova is the number three seed.
• Venus Williams withdrew from the tournament due to back issues.

It should shape up to be an interesting two weeks.
