Who leaves a $373,000 watch unattended in a hotel room?!?

Rafael Nadal, that's who!

After winning the French Open on Monday the Spanish tennis champ's ritzy timepiece loaned to him by luxury watchmaker Richard Mille mysteriously disappeared from his posh Parisian hotel!

However, this story has a happy ending because on Tuesday police tracked down the thief, a barman at the hotel, who confessed to letting himself into Rafa's room with his own magnetic key card.

Shady! Stupid, but shady!

Upon hearing the news, Nadal praised the police, adding:

"I have nothing to hold against the hotel. They have always treated me well when I have stayed there over the past eight years and I will be come back next year."

Word of advice: store your fancy baubles in the safe. That's what it's there for!

You’re probably used to seeing Anna Wintour front row at different fashion events, but this past weekend the fashionista was courtside at the French Open.

Miz Wintour was spotted attending the tennis match this past Saturday in Paris looking glamorous as usual.

And yes, those are some pretty defined and toned arms on Anna, but even more surprisingly, that’s a smile on her face! Ha!

Looking good!

Pippa Middleton is giving Zara tons of free press lately.

Over the weekend Kate Middleton's little sister attended the French Open in another dress from the Spanish retailer that retails for less than $60.

Pippa was also carrying one of her favorite Modalu London bags, which they've renamed after The Duchess' popular sibling.

The "Pippa" medium grab costs just under $280 and is available for pre-order now.

That was fast.

Venus Williams announced she will no longer be wearing her lacy black tennis outfit that caused quite the commotion at the French Open.

The tennis star told reporters on Friday "As great as the design is, I really want the focus to be on the tennis."

We're sure she'll debut another eyebrow-raising ensemble in no time!

Oh-la-la!

Once again, Venus Williams made tennis fans do a double take when she stepped on to the court at the French Open.

Not only was Venus' Sunday attire lacey and gave the illusion that it was see-thru, but she also brought back her skin toned undies that made it look like she was free ballin' on the court!

She did win, so maybe there is some sort of logic behind the scandalous outfits.

What do U think of Venus' outfit???
