The white fashion scoop

Under the strict rules & regulations of the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club, the tennis elites were quick to showcase the white masterpieces they prepared for this year's edition. With their creativity being already restricted to this sole colour, the players needed to come up with something really spectacular to steal the show. In recent year, the Williams sisters own the event, both based on their on court performances, as well as their fashion choices. This time around it looks to be no exception with Venus scoring high at the fashion department once again.
Overall, we are witnessing a pretty quiet Wimbledon, no player, except for Mattek Sands and maybe Venus, going overboard. The trend is towards simplicity, especially from Nike who came with a retro collection. Adidas is back at its best with some joyful, fresh pieces. Nevertheless, I somehow miss all the glam and sophistication of previous years when Federer, Sharapova, the Williamses transformed the Centre Court into a genuine catwalk.

'Relight my fire'. Venus is back with a bang. As expected the American saved the best for London where she made headlines with her spectacular jumpsuit. Although the lacy fabric might seem a bit too precious for a tennis court, Venus's outfit landed in the fashion history of the sport as one which will probably open many doors in the future. I find it incredible how well she fulfills her designer potential by putting her brand on the map everytime she steps on the court. As she's always reinventing herself, she is so beneficial for the game and for fashion. I am glad to have her and her tricky style back.

Serena Williams barely escaped being one of the block by wearing this personalized retro cardigan. I am into this kind of sweaters, so I applaude her choice. Plus it's something she never wore in the past.

Julia Goerges and Petra Kvitova also wore the Nike retro collection. Really simple, all white outfits, just some black lines here and there to emphasize some key parts.

Without his personalized blazers, Federer looks to have lost his aura when he stepped on Center Court. I hope the Swiss Master will turn the tables on his main rivals and recaptures his Wimbledon credentials by claiming a seventh crown.

Victoria Azarenka and French Open champion Na Li opted for a rather dull Nike attire that doesn't help them stand out from the crowd. While the Chinese added a shaky on court performance which saw her exit the tournament in the second round, I hope the Belorussian will be more fortunate. It really is time she takes that ultimate step towards Grand Slam glory.

Kimiko Date Krumm and Maria Kirilenko look fresh and cool in these Adidas outfits. While the Russian would look good no matter what she wears, the 40 years old Japanese manages to turn back time, proving tough competition for her younger rivals when it comes to on-court looks also.

'The Queen of Waffles'. World number 1 Caroline Wozniacki insists on bringing her Stella McCarthy 'waffles' to the court wearing the white version of the dress she showcased earlier this year at Indian Wells or Roland Garros. Besides not liking it, there is not much more to say.

'Lady Fucking NOT Gaga'. Although she lost in the first round, Bethanie Mattek-Sands made headlines at this year's Wimbledon after teaming up with one of Lady Gaga's designer, Alex Noble. After the disaster she wore at the pre-party, the American showed another monstrosity when she stepped on court. I guess that not everything that is Lady Gaga connected has to be a success. Moreover, not anyone can be Lady Gaga. Some, i.e. Bethanie, can only dream about it though. This is just another example of her sick passion for pushing the fashion boundaries in the most hideous way. I hope she'll take a break soon.

 

'One day only'. Jankovic might have opted for a rather decent dress (i.e. for her standards), but by failing in her first round match to Spaniard Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez, she ended her London adventure quicker than expected. No chance to get a second look at her apparel.

The 'Godmother' Aravane Rezai looked like she was about to fulfill her role at a cheap wedding. She was building on the heavy criticism she received for her over the top, hideous outfits, but it appears like success is eluding her. She failed one more both on court and fashion wise.

'The Most Athletic of Them All'. I might have said it before, but once more I am a fan of Gael Monfils' K-SWISS attire. The athletic French looks utterly fit in the sleeveless T-shirt and sporty shorts. He is one of the few men players who managed not to look dull at this year's championship.

Tennis Moods Style: Dressed for Grand Slam success!

With Wimbledon just around the corner, the elite of the WTA tour gathered for the pre-party held on at the Roof Gardens, Kensington on June 16, 2011 in London.

 

 Maria Sharapova is one who takes fashion very seriously. The Russian was at her utmost best, stealing the show in this stunning red Alexander McQueen dress. This was my favourite outfit of the night.

Andrea Petkovic caused a pleasant surprise showing a young, fresh look. She wore Richard Nicoll. A plus for the vivid shoes in combination with the nude dress. It was my second pick of the night.

Not one to bother much about fashion, Schiavone looked effortless chic in this monochrome ensemble.

Media darling Ana Ivanovic resembles an Oriental princess in this Matthew Williamson dress. However, this is definitely not my favourite Ivanovic look.

 

Sorana Cirstea proved she is one of the young fashionistas.

Serena signaled her return in this emerald Burberry gown which perfectly emphasizes her curvy figure.

 

I am not a fan of Jelena Jankovic's style, but I must admit the Serbian looked decent in this Vivienne Westwood dress.

 Sania Mirza ended up on the worst dressed list with this strange, shapeless pink dress.

Fashion fiasco Bethanie Mattek Sands did it again. Teaming up with one of Lady Gaga's designers, Alex Noble, the American put together this 'tennis ball' dress. Although she hoped to wow the audience, the eccentric Bethanie managed to make a fool of herself yet again, looking like the clown of the party. Really, didn't she learn anything by now?!

Caroline Wozniacki looks rather dull in her Stella McCarthy one shoulder dress. For a reigning world number 1, this look is way too boring. She could've saved the dress by having a more voluminous hairdo and a more aggressive make-up.

Oh girl, you've left me speechless...

For me, the biggest story of this year's Roland Garros was the defeat of world number 1 Caroline Wozniacki at the hands of Slovak Daniela Hantuchova. Hantuchova was been a decent top 15 players for years now, but I was shocked to see her destroy the young Dane so early in the tournament. Wozniacki was completely outplayed in her third round match, having found herself 6-1, 4-0 down at one point. She suddenly remembered she tops the women's ranking and put in a bit of a fight. She reduced the deficit to 4-3 and her fans were beginning to hope for a spectacular turnaround. Daniela hang on in there though, winning the next two games, thus sending Caroline crashing out. She became the third Slovak to succumb a reigning world number 1 and the second to do so this year, Dominika Cibulkova getting the better of Wozniacki in Sydney.

It was definitely a bad day at the office for the young Dane. She seemed out of sorts, unfocused and her game was derailed. Though such things happen and are part of tennis, it is really unfortunate if they happen during a Grand Slam. Especially during this Grand Slam, as this Roland Garros in particular was Caroline's chance of adding the elusive Grand Slam to her resume. In the absence of the Williams sisters and Dinara Safina and with the disappointing defeats on Kim Clijsters, Ana Ivanovic and Julia Goerges so early in the draw, the Dane was many people's first pick for the Suzanne Lenglen cup. Moreover, the odds appeared to be on her side when she collected her first red clay title in Brussels just a week before, indicating she has made a menace with her least favourite surface.

If there is an adjective to describe Caroline's game, that's consistency. She has made a name for herself by winning almost every tournament she enters. And by looking at her busy schedule, this feat is quite impressive. Nevertheless, she seems to struggle in the Slams. Besides the US Open final in 2009 and the semis at the last two Slams (i.e. US Open 2010 and Melbourne 2011) her performances are quite poor. Her loss to Hantuchova, a player she beat in all three previous meetings, marks yet another missed opportunity.  I really envisioned a Wozniacki-Azarenka final, as these are the players who, alongside Julia Goerges and Petra Kvitova, dominated the clay court season.

Although she will retain her spot at the top of the rankings, her setback will only add on to the controversy around her world number 1 position. With Wimbledon just around the corner, Caroline ought to come out swinging, as the only way of putting the matter at rest is by capturing a Grand Slam trophy.

A fashion scoop at the beginning of the clay-court season!

As soon as the clay-court season kicked off, the women on the WTA tour were quick to show off their latest outfits. Jelena Jankovic, playing in Charleston this week, introduced to us her spring ensemble hoping to cause a commotion. Unfortunately, her hideous ANTA dress 'helped' her end up on the worst dressed list. I have to admit I am no fan of the Serbian's style and since switching from Reebok, I have all the reasons in the world not to. Her contract with the Asian sportswear company, doesn't do her any good., as the clothes lack refinement, class and their design is way too elaborate. It might be due to the image of her new, no-brand sponsor, but they look cheap overall. It's no wonder, no one except some Chinese players are actually endorsing them. However, getting back to this piece, I haven't seen something so horrible since Venus' fashion faux pas at the Australian Open. According to her, Jelena tried to portray spring. Nevertheless, this 'blossoming' green outfit, which she helped design, resembles more an ugly tablecloth than a blooming spring landscape. Although, she really puts efforts into this, the Serbian must admit once and for all that she's not a tennis fashionista and probably never will.

 

On the other hand, Jankovic's conqueror is a genuine one. After disposing of the Serbian in the semis, Caroline Wozniacki went on to beat Russian Elena Vesnina in the final to capture the title. Not only did she won her third trophy of the year, all at premier events, but the young Dane proved her recent fashion slip was accidental. Wearing a youthful ensemble featuring a contrasting peachy top and an intense sea-blue skirt, she managed to look utterly amazing once more. Dazzling on the green clay of South Carolina in Stella McCarthy designs, Caroline finally grab the title that eluded her in her previous two attempts (i.e. she lost in the final of 2009 to Lisicki and had to retire in the semis last year after injuring her ankle). Benefiting from the absence of the Williams sisters, Wozniacki is not only strengthening her position atop of the rankings, but she  is also reinforcing her recently won status as the most fashionable player on the tour.

A fashion scoop from the desert!

The fortnight of Indian Wells was the perfect opportunity for the hottest women on tour to showcase their latest outfits. There were three major headlines that retained my attention.

First of all, I was shocked to see Maria Sharapova, the ultimate Nike Diva, wearing the same clothing as Frenchwoman Marion Bartoli. The Russian always benefited from special treatment when it came to her on court looks. Moreover, her interest for fashion is no secret to anyone, as reportedly she's engaged in designing her dresses. As I don't think Marion's fashion status was upgraded, I am left wondering if Maria's uniqueness is threatened. Could this mark the end of her great collaboration with Nike, as it happened to Maria Kirilenko and her Stella McCarthy deal? As usual, time will tell.

Secondly, Caroline Wozniacki, the one who ended Kirilenko's Adidas reign, introduced to us her latest Stella McCarthy outfit. I saw it before in the new Turkish Airlines commercial, as the Dane was recently chosen to become the new face of their Business Class brand, but I never thought she would wear it on court. I really don't get the Hawaiian lei as for me they lack taste.Furthermore, the overall designs seems utterly improper for tennis and I don't think it does her any favour. I am a genuine Adidas by Stella McCarthy fan, but this looks likes a fashion faux pas to me.

Thirdly, Aravane Rezai made a long-awaited return to the game. In her short time on court (i.e. she lost in her second round match), she proudly showcased her new outfit which generated mixed reviews. The positive news is that, luckily, her hideous 'golden' era is now behind her. On the other hand, the negatives are that Rezai appears to have deeply fallen in love with this design as she replicates it time and time again. On this instance, she decided to change colours and thus, she replaced the golden lame with pink satin. Although this is strong proof that Aravane's style credentials are forever compromised, at least she's improving. To be honest, there's nothing that can match her grotesque golden dress, so brighter times are ahead of us as far as this player's evolution is concerned. Best of luck and smarter fashion choices!

A fashion scoop from the 2011 Australian Open: the land of horrors!

Not sure what happened to the sportswear manufacturers this year, but the Australian Open looked grotesque and scary. Starting with the green and pink Adidas outfits and finishing with Venus Williams and her odious pieces, this year was a genuine fashion faux pas.
 

Tsonga, Justine Henin, Alicia Molik, even poor Maria Kirilenko (otherwise a true fashionista) had to endure the horrors of wearing that terrible combination of vibrant mint-green and intense cyclamen. Some did it with style though. Toning it down by adding a white skirt, respectively, a top, they've managed to look decent on court. However, there were cases (i.e. Dolgopolov or Date Krumm) when the outfits were visually challenging. Wearing green and pink cap-a-pie, I felt my eyes being bruised by the powerful colours.

 

Venus Williams made a long awaited return by causing an uproar. Wearing her signature EleVen outfits, she walked on court with a short shirt (I assume it was intended to serve as a dress), really plain looking and totally unsuited for tennis. A more glamorous version was showcased in her third round encounter with Petkovic. Things didn't stop there unfortunately, as she introduced us to what she called the 'Alice in Wonderland' dress. Words are pointless in describing the monstrosity:

I've always been a fan of her style. She used to push fashion forward but her recent lack of results seems to have affected her inspiration. Get some treatment and return as strong as ever ;).

This year's championships had everything. I've noticed it bore a strong resemblance to the Oscar nominees list. Venus wasn't the only one to star in it. Caroline Wozniacki matched another Hollywood front-runner  in her 'Danish Swan' dress, courtesy of Stella McCarthy. In her case, it actually proved an excellent choice, very bold too.

Caroline Wozniacki Tennis Stars

Women's tennis is boring. The leading players are boring as personalities, they play in a boring style and it is ridiculous that the world's top-ranked woman has never won a Grand Slam title.

Until now that has been the view of many critics, but they may think again after Caroline Wozniacki's hilarious post-match press conference here at the Australian Open yesterday.

The world No 1 – who, yes, has never won a Grand Slam tournament – has sometimes contributed to that negative image with her own one-paced answers to questions, but she turned the tables on her interrogators after her 6-4, 6-3 third-round victory over Dominika Cibulkova.

Wozniacki told the assembled media that they got the same boring answers because they always asked the same boring questions. At almost every press conference this year the 20-year-old Dane has been asked not only about her matches but also, for example, about whether she deserves to be world No 1 and whether she was sensible to change her racket just before a Grand Slam event.

"I know what you're going to ask me already," she said. "So I'm just going to start with the answers."

Wozniacki proceeded to deliver a monologue in which she answered every question she expected to be asked. "I felt great out there today on the court... I think I played a pretty good match... I'm happy to be through to the next round... What do I need to do to win this tournament?... If I played too defensively today, I actually feel like I had to do that...

"Do I deserve to be No 1? Maybe this was more proof that I belong there. Again, I don't feel any pressure being No 1. I really enjoy myself. I think I've had a great year and a great tournament so far... My racket feels really good. I feel like the racket is really helping me out... I'm just happy to be here."

Wozniacki concluded: "Now maybe you can ask me some questions that are a little bit more interesting, a little bit different to what I usually get."

Whereupon the Dane answered questions on a range of topics. As a Liverpool fan, what did she think about Kenny Dalglish's return as manager? "I'm hoping that will give some positive energy to the lads. I'm hoping things will turn and they'll start winning more matches. It's tough to be a supporter and see them having a hard time. But it's a sport, and I'm sure it will turn sooner or later."

How can we solve global warming? "I'm flying quite a bit, so that doesn't help. Go green. Make cars that don't use so much gas. Make them electric. That would already help. Use buses, trains, instead of taking the car. Just a few things. When you take a shower, don't stay there for half an hour. Two minutes is enough – even for girls."

When did she plan to marry and how many children would she have? "First I have to find a guy."

What does she expect in a man? "Honesty. Understanding what I'm doing."

You're not going to find that in this room, she was told. "Sometimes the media are too good-looking here, so I can't really focus on what I'm supposed to say," she replied, turning on the charm.

Caroline Wozniacki (born 11 July 1990) is a Danish tennis player. As of 11 October 2010 (2010 -10-11)[update], she is ranked World No. 1 on the WTA Tour and will finish 2010 as World No. 1. She has won twelve WTA singles titles and was the runner-up at the 2009 US Open and the 2010 WTA Tour Championships
Career
[edit] 2005
Wozniacki won several junior tournaments in 2005, including the Orange Bowl tennis championship.[1] She made her debut on the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour at Cincinnati's Western & Southern Financial Group Women's Open on 19 July 2005, losing to the top-seeded and later champion Patty Schnyder in the first round. In the Nordea Nordic Light Open, her other WTA tournament of the year, she lost to Martina Suchá in the first round.

[edit] 2006
In 2006, she was the first seed at the Australian Open (junior girls' singles), but lost the final to eighth-seeded Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova of Russia. She was seeded second with Anna Tatishvili in the doubles tournament, but the pair was knocked out in the semifinals by the French-Italian pair of Alizé Cornet and Corinna Dentoni, who were seeded eighth.

In February in Memphis, she reached her first WTA Tour quarterfinal, beating Kristina Brandi and Ashley Harkleroad in the first two rounds before losing to third-seeded Sofia Arvidsson of Sweden.
Before Wimbledon, Wozniacki won the exhibition tournament Liverpool International Tennis Tournament beating Ashley Harkleroad in the finals.[2]

Later that year, she was given a wildcard to the Wimbledon senior qualifying tournament, where she was beaten in the first qualifying round by Miho Saeki. However, Wozniacki went on to win the girls' singles tournament, beating Slovak Magdaléna Rybáriková in the finals.

In August, she reached another WTA Tour quarter-final, this time at the Nordea Nordic Light Open in Stockholm. She defeated top 100 players Iveta Benešová and Eleni Daniilidou before falling to eventual champion and third-seeded Jie Zheng.
Wozniacki was seeded second in Girls' Singles in the year's last major tournament, the US Open. In the first round on 3 September she won the first set against Russian Alexandra Panova, but was disqualified in the second set for verbally abusing an umpire. Wozniacki was said to have used an expletive in referring to a linesman who made a disputed call;[3] however, on her blog, she claimed to say "take your sunglasses of [sic]" and to be mistaken for talking to the linesman when she was criticizing herself after the next point.[4]

In her last junior tournament, the Osaka Mayor's Cup, she won the girls' singles and doubles.[5]

Her first senior title came shortly after on 29 October, when she won the $25,000 ITF-tournament in Istanbul by beating Tatjana Malek in the final.

Wozniacki was set to face Venus Williams on 27 November in an exhibition match in Copenhagen,[6] but five days before the event, Williams canceled because of an injury.[7] The two did, however, face each other in the Memphis WTA Tier III event on 20 February. Williams beat Wozniacki, ending the nine-match winning streak Wozniacki had at the time.

On 30 November, Wozniacki was named ambassador for Danish Junior Tennis by the Culture Minister of Denmark at the time, Brian Mikkelsen.

In early January she played the Hong Kong exhibition tournament Watsons Water Champions Challenge.

On 4 February, she won the singles title in Ortisei, Italy, at an ITF $75,000 tournament, beating the Italian player Alberta Brianti 4–6, 7–5, 6–3. On 4 March, she won the $75,000 ITF tournament in Las Vegas, beating top-seed Akiko Morigami in the final 6–3, 6–2.

She obtained a wild card for the Pacific Life Open main draw and made her Tier I-debut there. She was knocked out in the second round by Martina Hingis 6–1, 6–3. The two faced each other again on 27 April in Copenhagen for an exhibition match, where Wozniacki again lost 7–6(7), 3–6, 6–2.

She then made the semifinals of the AIG Open in Tokyo in October, her first career WTA semifinal and also the first Danish woman to reach a WTA semifinal since Tine Scheuer-Larsen in 1986 at Bregenz. Wozniacki lost to Venus Williams 6–3, 7–5.

[edit] 2008
At the Australian Open, she defeated Gisela Dulko, 21st seed Alyona Bondarenko on her way to the Round of 16 where she lost to the eventual finalist and fourth-seeded Ana Ivanović.

At the French Open, she was seeded thirtieth, making this the first Grand Slam tournament in which Wozniacki was seeded. She lost in the third round to the eventual champion and World No. 2 Ana Ivanović.

At Wimbledon, she reached the third round but lost to second-seeded Jelena Janković.[8]

Wozniacki won her first ever WTA Tour title at the Nordic Light Open in Stockholm without losing a single set, defeating Vera Dushevina 6–0, 6–2 in the final. She had previously beaten the no. 5 seed Anabel Medina Garrigues in the quarterfinals and the top seed and World No. 10, Agnieszka Radwańska in the semifinals.

At the Summer Olympics in Beijing, she beat World No. 12 Daniela Hantuchová in the second round before falling to the eventual gold-medalist Elena Dementieva. Wozniacki then won her second WTA Tour title at the Pilot Pen Tennis in New Haven, defeating four seeded players in Dominika Cibulková, Marion Bartoli and Alizé Cornet en route to the final, where she defeated World No. 11 Anna Chakvetadze.

She was 21st seed at the US Open, and defeated World No. 14 Victoria Azarenka in the third round. In the fourth round, she lost to second-seeded and eventual runner-up Jelena Janković.

At the China Open, she lost her opening match to Anabel Medina Garrigues. However, she teamed up with Medina Garrigues to clinch the doubles title, defeating the Chinese duo of Han Xinyun and Xu Yi-Fan. It was Wozniacki's first WTA doubles title. At the Tier III AIG Japan Open Tennis Championships, she was the top seed for the first time on the WTA Tour, and won her third career title, defeating Kaia Kanepi of Estonia in the final.
