Just drawing everyone attention to Serena Williams. This week she played tennis in a catsuit. She's done it before but this one was pretty much all over body coverage and lots of shine. Some examples of articles covering this include...

Of note are her comments about wearing it:

“I feel like a warrior in it, like a warrior princess kind of, [a] queen from Wakanda,” she explained. “I’m always living in a fantasy world. I always wanted to be a superhero, and it’s kind of my way of being a superhero. I feel like a superhero when I wear it.”

Some incredible photos of her wearing it. So, yes, I like women in catsuits, but it's rare you see a world-leading, powerful woman wearing one because it helps her perform. And yes, she looks like a goddess or superhero to me.

Now if only Maria Shirapova would wear something similar when she plays Serena in the fourth round tomorrow. That would be ratings gold!

This is one of my favorite tournaments to watch because the Williams sisters do not play it. Nice to know year after year we wont have to endure the drama queen Serena or Venus disgusting outfits. Everything about these girls revolves around making themselves the center of attention, usually through terribly unsportsmanlike behavior. They are great tennis players - too bad they have never been able to let their tennis do the talking without all the extraneous crap that make them unbearable.

Unfortunately, the French tennis federation banned this type of outfit. They announced a new dress code.

This is the type of outfit that Serena usually wears at the U.S. Open, because it has the most liberal dress code, and being in New York, players can make fashion statements.

The 1980s called and you are rocking that one-legged catsuit. On Feb. 8, Williams stepped on the court in the first round of the Australian Open in Melbourne in a one-legged neon pink catsuit, a subtle nod to Olympic sprinter Florence Griffith Joyner, aka Flo-Jo. "I was inspired by Flo-Jo, who was a wonderful track athlete," Williams, who grew up watching the track and field star, said about the outfit in a postmatch interview. "Watching her fashion, just always changing, her outfits were always amazing."

Serena, who collaborated with Nike on the look, incorporated Flo-Jo's signature one-legged suit and bright color choices into the outfit to pay tribute to her legacy...

There was another tennis player some years back that did this in Wimbledon. They promptly banned it. Freakin Brits...

It was Anne White who did it in 1985.
