Canadian Aleksandra Wozniak was no match for Serena Williams — both in game and in style — during a fourth-round encounter at the 2009 French Open.
Serena easily won 6-1, 6-2. And in the accessories department, Wozniak’s Chanel logo studs were no match for the jewelry worn by the No. 2 seed.
This was less controversial match for Serena, who called out her previous opponent, Maria Martinez Sanchez, as a cheat. Serena alleges that Martinez Sanchez got hit by a ball before it sailed out, which should’ve given the point to Serena. Instead, the ump awarded the point to Martinez Sanchez. Serena, who won anyway, made a stink about it in her presser. We hope Serena was right, otherwise all the fracas was just a big whiny waste of time.
Up next for Serena is Svetlana Kuznetsova, who beat Agnieszka Radwanska.

Serena was totally right, you can tell in the replays. She was cheated.
I actually prefer simple chanel studs to the big earrings that Serena was sporting.

So? Serena hits the ball directly at her opponents when they come to the net so she deserved a little bit of karma.
