Fiancé accompanies Venus, boyfriend Serena Williams for US Open practice

Venus accompanied by Hank Kuehne at US Open

I found one really cool set of photos of sisters Venus and Serena Williams practicing before their epic match at the US Open. The photos are chronologically ordered and each one is commented. In this post I'm showing you just some of them.

Serena Williams and Common at US Open

I find it especially nice that the tennis stars were both accompanied by their partners –  Venus by her fiancé, golfer Hank Kuehne, and Serena by her often-denied boyfriend, rapper Common.Fiancé accompanies Venus Williams for US Open practice

    Hi… I am so thrilled that these two young, beautiful AA women are fulfilling their dreams on the court. And better yet, they have some wonderful men in their lives. I can't wish anything better for them in their lives than to just enjoy and be happy with your mates.

    I know you, Venus will make a beautiful bride, also you too, Serena!

    I think that these 2 ladies epitomize what all young girls can aspire to. They are smart, beautiful and have shown their belief in a Creator when they have won different opens. I am happy for them both. I hope they continue along in life showing what desire, discipline and determination can lead to. A great reprenstation for young girls everywhere and anywhere. Truly two ladies and Women to emulate.

    You both are to commended for your talents both on and off court. You are excellent role models leading by example. I want the two of you to be very happy in your personal lives. As humans we struggle with what-s right from religious as well as social perpectives. Please go with what-s in your hearts to make you happy. Our creator endowed all of us with what we would need to have peace and harmony in our lives. We complicate it with rules and teachings from another-s perpective. Go with what feels right in your hearts. You-ve worked hard to get where you are so don-t comprimise your values along the way. Peace

    The real event should take place just like Kim Clister. She already have a issue with her husband. It is not just enough to have a pet around you but give your best to him or her. We want to hear the wedding bell.
