Venus Williams has followed up her Wimbledon victory with a loss to Myskina in the Fed Cup. The U.S. is down 0-2( best of 5) since Mashona Washington(?) lost her match to Dementieva. This is the semi-final round and the matches are being played in Moscow so the Russians do have the home field. I don't follow women's tennis too attentively but I would recognize Asagoe as Japan's top women and Tanasugarn as Thailand's top lady but until today I had never heard of Miss Washington(apparently she has been a pro since '95). Maybe Fed Cup captain Zina Garrison could fill me in about her.
The U.S. ladies may not be winning the Fed Cup this time around but it is good to see that the team has finally become athletic!
