  • Venus Williams Bio 2016-8-17
    Venus Williams On October 31, 1994, a 14-year-old girl, with her hair styled in beads and full of confidence, strode onto the court at Bank of the West Classic in California and transformed tennis. Today, Venus Williams is one of the most accomplished women in the history of the sport. Having been called "the best athlete in the history of women's tennis" by Sports Illustrated, Venus has been ranked number one in the world in singles three times in her career, and has captured seven Grand Slam titles, five Wimbledon championships and five Olympic medals -- and counting. Along the way, Venus has also distinguished herself as a student who has pursued higher education, an entrepreneur who has launched and helms two businesses, a designer who creates fashion and interior designs, an investor whose ventures include becoming with her sister the first African-American women to buy shares of an NFL team, an author who has written a best-selling book, and an advocate for gender and pay equality. The most amazing part is that Venus Williams is just getting started. Venus’ Early Years: Family Values Venus Ebony Starr Williams was born in the Watts area of Los Angeles, California, into a tight-knit family helmed by her parents, Richard Williams and Oracene Price. Born on June 17, 1980, Venus was the fourth of Richard and Oracene’s five daughters. Her birth was followed fifteen months later by the arrival of her youngest sister, Serena. From a young age, Venus’ father, Richard, who himself was self-taught in the sport, began training his daughters on the public tennis courts in Compton, California.

The interior ministry identified the attacker as Ibrahim Suleiman, born in 1988. It said he was driving a cleaning truck at the time of the attack, and suffered multiple fractures and injuries. The min- istry added the five US soldiers were not injured. Security sources said that the suspect was taken to hospital under tight security. Detectives found in his possession a hand-written letter pledging allegiance to IS and adopting its ideology. Explosives - including a suicide belt - were found in the truck, owned by a local contracting company. Security bodies are interro- gating Ibrahim Suleiman Suleiman and conducting investi- gations to uncover the circumstances of the attack, in addition to finding the suspect’s accomplices and bring them to justice, the ministry said, reiterating commit- ment to preserving the safety and security of Kuwait and Kuwaitis. Kuwait is a stalwart US ally following the 1991 American-led Gulf War that ended the Iraqi occupation.

Federer faces Florian Mayer in the Mercedes Cup quarter-finals, and with a win would trail only Jimmy Connors among the winningest players since the spring of 1968. Federer has a 6-0 FedEx ATP Head 2 Head record against Mayer, including straight-set wins on German grass at the Gerry Weber Open in 2005, 2012 and 2015. Federer is not the only man with a milestone on the line in Stuttgart. Mike Bryan seeks his 1,000th doubles win when he and twin brother Bob face Oliver Marach and Fabrice Martin in a semi-final match on Court 1. Only Federer, Lendl, Connors and Daniel Nestor have earned at least 1,000 victories in singles or doubles. Bob Bryan has 985 doubles wins individually. As a team, the Bryans are 984-300. Also in action are a pair of players who won their first ATP World Tour title in Stuttgart: 2002 champion Mikhail Youzhny and 2008 champion Juan Martin del Potro.
