We'd hate to be the bedpost that has notches for every tennis victory that Serena Williams has had, because we'd be knifed constantly!

It's true — Serena has taken Brisbane, title in hand!

It looks like the break between seasons hasn't hurt her streak, as she landed her 47th career title with a 6-2, 6-1 victory over

Fab news, fab cause!

Venus Williams has taken up the fight to get fair pay for women at Wimbledon, and it's caught the eye of award-winning director Ava DuVernay!

Ava will be making an in-depth documentary about it all, called Venus VS, and it'll be broadcast on ESPN in 2013. We'll all get to see it!

Like we said, this is a cause that SHOULD be taken up, and we hope with all this attention that something will finally be done about it!

Keep up the good work, Venus!

No, they didn't get kicked out — they must've just gotten bored with just doing the wave!

Prince William and Kate were recently escorted by their security team through Wimbledon after watching Andy Murray defeat Nicolas Almagro of Spain.

We get the feeling that's they're just kind and normal people, and we're willing to bet they're so well liked that they could pretty much go anywhere without security detail and be fine!

Plus, Kate is looking so fit and fab here — she would be able to kick any would-be attackers azz!

LOLz!

Holy shizz!

We hope you aren't wearing tight pants, because your tennis boner is about to lose control!

We had no idea he was about to do this: Roger Federer has surpassed Pete Sampras for the most weeks at No. 1 in the ATP rankings!

After winning Wimbledon a week ago, Federer started his 287th week at No. 1 — one more than Sampras.

Here's what he said:

"[I'm] extremely proud and honored to have beaten Pete's record as he was my childhood hero and I have always looked up to him."

Cool beans!

Congrats on Wimbledon, Roger!
