Stalker Attempts to Enter Serena Willams' Gated Subdivision
Your Black World Reports
Patenema Ouedraogo, Serena Williams' 40-year-old stalker, was stopped by security guards Monday night when attempting to walk into Williams' South Florida gated subdivision.
Upon receipt of Ouedraogo's driver's license, authorities found that this man had been identified as a suspected stalker by Williams, and they arrested him. On previous occasions, not only did this man try to contact Williams three times, but he is also the same man who posed as her assistant in turn gaining undue access to her dressing room.

Is Serena Going to get Banned?
by Dr. Boyce Watkins, Syracuse University
Serena Williams has been listed as a headliner for this year's Australian Open. The problem is that it's not clear whether she'll be allowed to play.
Because of a recent outburst in which she threatened a line judge, Williams may be banned from at least one Grand Slam tournament. According to published reports, Williams told the judge, "You don't know me. You better be right. I swear to God I'm going to take this ball and shove it down your throat."Given that a ball going down your throat might actually kill you, the judge felt that Serena had threatened her life. Then again, Serena's from Compton, a town that has become famous for finding creative ways to kill people. Serena does not, however, need to take "the hood" with her all the way to Australia.
To make matters more interesting, Serena recently got naked for the cover of ESPN magazine, certifying her status as an iconic and thought-provoking figure for the early 21st century. These two events, plus the fact that she just happens to be one of the most dominant female tennis players in history, makes her the kind of woman we'll all be talking about for the next 100 years. Our great-grandkids won't be talking much about the boring apolitical figure called Michael Jordan. We'll congratulate Tiger Woods for being the first incredibly rich black man to consistently beat the crap out of the arrogant guys at the country club. Serena Williams' name, though, will come up in classes on feminist theory, history and sociology. Like Muhammad Ali, Serena is becoming bigger than her sport, and my greatest hope is that her ability to transcend tennis is guided by a desire to serve all humanity, and not just herself. Her nude body on the cover of ESPN is her way of yelling to the world that she is more than a tennis player. I agree that she is.

SERENA WILLIAM WILL SELL TAMPONS
An outburst at the U.S. Open last week hasn't stopped Procter & Gamble's from believing in Serena Williams' ability to sell product.
The company has inked an endorsement deal with the tennis star for its Tampax brand, according to brandweek.com. Print ads feature the athlete beating Mother Nature in a game of tennis and hit newsstands last week, primarily in teen titles like Teen Vogue.
Serena and Venus Williams Considering Buying a Share of Miami Dolphins
Serena Williams and her sister Venus are in preliminary talks to become part-owners of the NFL's Miami Dolphins, the 11-time grand slam winner confirmed on Wednesday.
"There have been preliminary talks and hopefully it will work out," Serena Williams told reporters after her second round win over Kazakhstan's Yaroslava Shvedova at the Toronto Cup. "That would be a great opportunity for both of us.
"We'll see what happens, you never know."
If they did acquire a stake in the Dolphins, the Williams sisters would join musicians Jimmy Buffet and Gloria and Emilio Estefan, who became minority partners in the team earlier this year.
Buffett, owner of Margaritaville Enterprises, signed a deal in May, which includes the team's stadium being renamed after his LandShark Lager beer for the 2009 season.
The Williams, who live in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, are not described as big NFL fans but view the Dolphins as a vehicle to promote themselves.
"Venus and I are always trying to expand our brand," said Williams. "If the opportunity presents itself we would love to see where it can take us.
"Hopefully we'll be able to expand our brand."
