Well Vera Z couldn`t make it a perfect hottie title sweep this weekend as she was defeated by Serena Williams 4-6, 6-3, 3-6 in the final of the Family Circle Cup.

Vera was pretty competitive for much of the match. In fact she was up 2-1 in the third set after breaking serve, but unfortunately things went downhill from there on. Vera pretty much faded in the last part of the match and got pretty flustered mentally during that time. So the third time wasn`t the charm for Vera today as she falls to 0-3 in finals this year. She has played very well this season in reaching at least the quarterfinals, but just hasn`t been able to get that elusive title win, with her previous attempts foiled by her having to withdraw before the final in Auckland due to injury and losses to Masha and Serena Williams in the finals at Doha and Charleston respectively. I really feel that Vera is due for a title sooner or later.

Meanwhile in other news, Dani will be out for at least three weeks due to her injured right heel, which she has been struggling with since last year's tournament in Luxembourg. She will use crutches to get around during that time and then will undergo medical tests after that to see if she can resume playing. This is a very tough thing to be happening to Dani.

I hope that she will take her time coming back so that her heel will get well enough for her to get back on the court soon.

Anyway here is a video of Makiri and Flavia having some fun during the award ceremony after they won the women`s doubles title in Estoril yesterday and some very hot pics of Flavia and Iveta to boost the morale here.
