Who writes a memoir at the age of 26????

Serena Williams does!

The tennis champ is set to release her memoir some time in 2009 - by Grand Central Publishing.

It will, of course, chronicle her life story as one of the best women's tennis players.

Editor Karen Kosztolnyik says, "Serena Williams is one of the world's most remarkable athletes. We've watched her rise to No. 1 despite physical and emotional setbacks, and her hard work and determination have inspired legions of fans young and old. Serena will give her memoir a strong motivational slant."

But is that even worth reading?

And, although financials for the book weren't released, some insiders said that the bidding reached at least $1.3 million.

Let's hope that was a good investment - especially in these financially rocky times!

Yippee!

American girl Serena Williams beat Serbian tennis star Jelena Jankovic for her third U.S. Open title!

The win also puts Serena at the #1 spot.

It's been five, long years since she's been ranked #1.

Congratulations, Serena!

Usually when Venus and Serena Williams play against each other, it's a shitty match to watch.

Thankfully, that wasn't the case at the Wimbledon Women's Finals on Saturday.

This time, Venus prevailed.

After losing five Grand Slam titles to her little sister, V took the prized Wimbledon title 7-5, 6-4.

AND, the Williams sisters also won the women's doubles championship.

Congrats!

Now this is how you do it!

Serena Williams pulled a Diddy.

The tennis star had a nosh at L'Avenue restaurant in gay Paris on Thursday.

She didn't take too kindly to the rain, though!

So, what's a girl to do????

Have your own Personal Umbrella Handler, of course!

Does she have someone wipe her ass after she shits too????

Love, game, set, hookup!

Tennis sensation Serena Williams is getting quite cozy with hip-hop artist Common.

The pair were spotted last month at a Hollywood nightclub getting very chummy while out clubbing.

This past weekend, the two were club hopping once again, this time in Miami.

Serena and Common were spotted holding hands at a Knight's Head Microbrew party at South Beach's Mokai.

They were also spotted trying to get into Prive Nightclub. Unfortunately for the two, they were denied access. The reason? Common violated the dress code policy since he was wearing shorts.

Oh please, you know if Jay-Z showed up there in daisy dukes, they'd let him in!

Apparently, though, the two are really hitting it off. Common recently said "I'm attracted to women that are strong in the sense of who they are. I like women who have power to them, but can still be ladylike and that have their own dreams."

We give this relationship, 6 months. Max.

Serena Williams and Common were spotted leaving West Hollywood club Villa together this past weekend.

They be dating? Yup!

The tennis titan and soulful crooner appeared together in Common's latest video, I Want You. They were also spotted hand in hand at a New York party last week, and they have been rumored to be dating over the past few months.

Looks like the lovebirds are coming out of hiding - just in time for spring!
