Tennis Twits! Who really texts their own? (The ones with grammer resembling Motley Crue song titles!) Who's agent is forced to learn all the nuances of Jada's adorable smiles? Which lazy tennis journalist resorts to using a follower buddy for new story leads?(http://twitter.com/Jonstennistweet ) And why is there a new section on the WTA site dedicated to player Twits? www.wtasuperfans.com/

They need to add Sweta and her 100 tweets in 5 minutes.
Maria's hair is so ugly now. She's just sad.

Hilarious! I wonder if there's a rule they have to be smiling in all their pics. The Stepford Tennis Association? Admittedly I only clicked on JH's pics. And won't be going back again; it's clearly meant for teenagers only.

I can't believe Lindsay has a twitter.
Or how much work she looks like she's had done. She easily looks younger now than she did in 1995.

This site is hysterical! Do they really want us to believe that Justine wrote this:
There's something wrong with every sentence. I'm trying to imagine Justine asking her fans to call her Juju, when she hates it.

it's clearly meant for teenagers only. The WTA is clearly desperate to attract a younger audience. When I first heard of this, I genuinely thought it was an emergency move to put Sveta's let's say freewheeling twitter messages under control, but the site is too sophisticated to have been put together in only a few days.

So they have Anglo hopes Oudin and Robson, the Belgians, the sisters and a few has-beens. But also Shriekarenka who rather unsurprisingly has the goofiest photo gallery in there. I'm sure JJ won't take long to overtake her in that, though.

I can't believe that's an officially sanctioned site...there's the rudimentary, ugly design for starters. On Firefox, you have to scroll down through an entire page's worth of turquoise before you even get to the "content", though given what that is, this is probably a small mercy...it basically aggregates the more entertaining WTA tweets (which tennistweets.com already does), photoshops them sloppily into a "wacky" photo and adds some oddly camp commentary (no wonder the dude "editing" the site is anonymous). I doubt the players are even aware of it. Why anyone would use it instead of actually following the players' actual Twitter accounts is beyond me.

Also, it doesn't include the actually entertaining bits of the players' Twitters. Like Sweta wishing everyone a "happy Eastern" the other day.

Justine's gofer, umm... I mean, yes and an update via cross media post for Facebook and Twit with the rather generic message of www.facebook.com/pages/Justine-Henin-Official-page/353706170093?v=wall Some days off in Belgium!! Glad to have chance to share time with family and friends...Justine's dog Deuce is quite brilliant you have to admit. Sending in these messages. The spelling's pretty good considering she's using her paws on an Apple Laptop!

Deuce is using an iPad, I'm sure. Studies have shown that a touchscreen is the technology preferred by dogs.

I tried to go to that site last week when I first saw this thread, and it froze my browser. I consider websites that make my browser fail to be disasters and don't go back to them. I should probably point out that my computer is garbage, but still.

Ok, so here’s a random roundup of what the players were tweeting last month….Serena gushed about Green Day (again : )…this time from the Alicia Keys concert…
Victoria started watching Cougar Town. Two things she ain’t: a cougar or a desperado!
And Kim's bulldog that unfortunately looks so similar to her.
This site is so bad and pointless that it comes around and turns into awesome.
I've also requested that Vika add more wonderfully random pics.

Cougar Town is good. I approve of this Victoria.
Isn't Serena well over a decade too late to be gushing about Green Day?

The Kleybster riding a bike! I would love to see her on a bike used to ride the classic one day Belgian races like Liege-Bastogne-Liege. Forget Justine! Watch out Tom Boonen!!!!!!!!

Google tells me Givori is some jewelry they put on cell phones. She still makes no sense, and now I hate her for being a spoiled rich dummy.
