Venus and Serena Williams have not played at the Pacific Life Open since 2001, because of prejudiced reactions from some members of the crowd.

This USTA article helps explain why they boycott the tournament every year.

Bartoli was ranked at No. 11 when she beat her in Toronto. Hi Richard,

She also beat Marion Bartoli as well, not sure if she's at No.11 or No.10 at the time so it might be Yan's fourth top 10 victory. And I sooo called Yan to shake up the draw! :P Maybe she'll win the whole thing! Schnyder is beatable by anyone and the sisters might wear each other out on the other side.
