Why won't Common hold Serena Williams' hand?

Serena Williams and boyfriend rapper-turned-actor Common was spotted strolling through New York City on a shopping trip.

Too bad you don't get to see them holding hands in these photos. Perhaps it has something to do with Common's finger injury.

India could be the best in Asia

I'm still saddened by Rendy Lu's lost to Somdev Devvarman in the fourth rubber in last weekend's Davis Cup tie between Taiwan and India.

His fluctuating performance is probably one of the reasons why I don't blog for days.

But to be fair to Rendy, India already knew from the start that they had the extra edge over Taiwan.

With Grand Slam doubles specialists like Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi, and upcoming tennis star like Somdev Devvarman, they look like a tough team to beat.

Kudos to the Indian Davis Cup team for making it to the third round where they will be meeting Australia who narrowly beat Thailand.

However congrats to Thai no. 1 Danai Udomchoke for his perfect performance in the second and fourth rubbers which saw him beating Australian teenage player Brydan Klein and former world no. 1 Lleyton Hewitt.

The other two countries who made it to the third round tie of the Asia/Oceania Zone Group 1 are Japan and Uzbekistan lead by Kei Nishikori and Denis Istomin respectively.

Pepper and her favourite tennis balls

Rendy Lu Yen-Hsun's girlfriend spotted!

Finally we saw Rendy's Lu's girlfriend on Friday's Davis Cup tie between Taiwan and India.

We're still finding out her name.

The only clue we have now is her mom's a famous legislator in Taiwan.

Anyone any tips?

Sitting next to her is Rendy's brother, Thomas.
