By Vy Dang

       The winner of last year’s U.S. Open, a tennis player that looks up at her older sister, and a hard working athlete.  These three athletes are who I am going to invite to my dinner party.

 

         Do you know who won last years U.S. Open?  Well, it is, Maria Sharapova.  Maria is one of the three people I am going to invite. was born in Russia, and now lives in Florida.  Her nickname is “Masha.”  She beat another tennis player in the 2007 Australian Open.

 

          Do you have any knowledge about a tennis that looks up at her sister?  If you don’t know who it is, it is Serena Williams.  She is one of the #1 tennis players in the world.  Serena won 8 Grand Slam titles.  Before the age of ten, she entered 49 tennis tournaments, and won 46 of them.  She also has an older sister, who is also a tennis player.

 

          Do you know who is an older sibling of another athlete? If you do not know, it is Venus Williams.  Venus also plays in tennis tournaments.  She had played against her sister before.  Luckily, she won some of them, but the rest went to Serena.  Venus also won 5 Grand Slam titles.

 

         So if you are thinking of who you should invite to your dinner party, these three athletes might be a suggestion.
