Jennifer Esposito

Jennifer Esposito is a television and movie actress. What's she doing on Tennis Babes? She just got engaged to Mark Philippoussis, the big-serving Australian tennis player who himself recently starred in the reality TV show Age Of Love, in which he chose between younger women and older women. In Esposito, chose someone his own age.

Caroline Wozniacki

Caroline Wozniacki did a very sporting thing at the Luxembourg Open: Ahead of Luxembourg's own Anne Kremer by a score of 7-5, 5-0, Wozniacki retired from the match with a hamstring injury. She could have closed out the match, she explained, but felt there was no chance she'd be able to play her next match. So she decided to let the Luxembourgian go through to the next round.

Great gesture, right? Not to the WTA: The Tennis Integrity Unit (the folks who investigate match fixing, among other things) are all over it because of something Wozniacki's father was overheard saying during the match. It's clear that Caroline did nothing wrong. But for the full story, see Yahoo's tennis blog.

Finally - another win for Maria Sharapova. The Russian mynx, beset by injuries, hadn't won a tournament since April 2008. But on Sunday, she defeated Jelena Jankovic in the finals of the Toray Pan Pacific when Jankovic stopped due to injury. Sharapova was ahead in the first set, 5-2, when Jankovic defaulted.

Justine Henin Comeback

Hey, it worked for Kim Clijsters, so why shouldn't another Belgian give it a try? Former world No. 1 Justine Henin, the dominant players in women's tennis when she retired at age 25 two years ago, will return to tournament tennis, media reports in Belgium are saying.
