      Tennis star Kim Clijsters invites Wimbledon spectator to put on a skirt and play

      Tennis star Kim Clijsters certainly doesn't need suggestions from the Wimbledon stands. But when one overzealous spectator couldn't help but shout advice, she took the opportunity to have some fun. During a doubles match on Friday, Clijsters asked her partner, Rennae Stubbs, whether she should serve wide or down the middle. That's when a man in the front row yelled, "Body serve!" (That's a real thing, BTW.) So Clijsters beckoned him to the court, inviting him to play a point or two. (You know, since he was so confident.) In accordance with Wimbledon regulations, she also lent him a set of tennis whites. It didn't go as disastrously as one might've expected — the dude actually returned the serve! But, of course, he was ultimately no match for Clijsters, who is obviously at the world's most prestigious tennis tournament for good reason. Moral of the story? When at Wimbledon, shout at your own risk.

      Why watching Wimbledon is the perfect way to get over England crashing out of Euros 2016

      It’s that time of year when cucumber sandwiches, whispered speculation about a roof, repetitive references to a specific hill and a heck of a lot of grunting fill our screens with Wimbledon finally ushering in the Great British Summer and I love it! Is there anything better to help you get over your European Championship woes then watching a Scottish man crush the competition on behalf of everyone in the United Kingdom? Plus nothing can come close to the feeling of a British person winning Wimbledon. There’s a reason Andrew Murray won Sports Personality of the Year last year after all, and not the England football team! But Murray isn’t the only British person in the tournament. Like Marcus Willis, ranked 772 in the world who triumphed over world number 54 Ricardas Berankis in straight sets to earn himself a marquee match up against Roger Federer in the second round.
