This is for you Thimmy, enjoy:

ANDRE AGASSI and Pete Sampras served up an amazing slanging match for fans at a charity event.

The tennis legends joined Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal in raising cash for Haiti earthquake victims.

They have been bickering since Agassi claimed in his autobiography that Sampras was a cheapskate - citing an occasion when he tipped just one dollar for valet parking.

And the pair traded verbal shots after Sampras took the mickey out of Agassi's pigeon-toed walk...

15-0: Agassi turns his pockets inside out, saying: "I don't have any money, no, wait, I've got a dollar."

30-0: Agassi quips: "It's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt, right?"

30-15: Sampras serves a ball straight at Agassi's head, saying: "If that's the way you want to play it."

40-15: Agassi volleys: "It's better than being a valet driver and you pulling up."

GAME, SET AND MATCH: Sampras says: "You got personal with me." But Agassi smashes back: "No, everybody knows it already."

ANDY MURRAY beat Andreas Seppi of Italy 6-4 6-4 in the second round of the BNP Paribas Open yesterday.

But Brit No 1 Elena Baltacha's run at Indian Wells came to a swift end when she was hammered 6-0 6-2 by Alicia Molik in round three.

Serena Williams of the U.S. holds the winners trophy after defeating Russia's Vera Zvonareva in the womens' singles final at the 2010 Wimbledon tennis championships in London, July 3, 2010.

She does it again! Think she tied Billie Jean for most ever or whatever.

Li Na just triumphed over Caroline Wozniacki in the womens semi final of the Australian Open in three amazing sets!

The score was 3-6, 7-5, 6-3.

Both girls played incredible tennis, with Li hitting aggressively and Wozniacki getting to every ball. Li almost lost in the second set with Wozniacki on match point, but she managed to save it and just stayed in that set, taking the match to the third set. She had 42 winners compared to Wozniacki's 10, if that helps give you an idea of her playing style.

I thought it'd be nice to add that Li Na just made history by being the first Asian player to reach the final of a Grand Slam. Way to go!!

Li was also really funny in the on-court post-match interview

Hopefully a video of it is posted online somewhere.

Hope she'll be the first asian player to win a Grand Slam.

But wait, Michael Chang who wins Roland Garros in 1989 doesn't count as an asian.

I'll probably see the final while playing Everybody's Tennis on my PSP.

^ Yup he does. Asian American but still

Serena Williams had a blood clot scare (Pulmonary Embolism)

"This has been extremely hard, scary, and disappointing," ... "I am doing better, Im at home now and working with my doctors to keep everything under control."

Get well soon!

Nobody pays attention on Roland Garros?!

Strange.

Na Li reached the final. I hope she'll have better luck than in Australia.
