What is wrong with Ferrero?

TA

P.S. I have short-term memory loss. What did the woman with 4 names do at the French Open?

It did touch your hand

Ten-time Grand Slam title winner Serena Williams angrily denounced her Roland Garros opponent as a 'cheat' on Saturday as two of the world's top 10 crashed to shock French Open defeats.

Williams, the 2002 champion, defeated Spain's Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 to reach the last 16 but fourth seeded Russian Elena Dementieva and Denmark's Caroline Wozniacki, the world number 10, were third round casualties.

Second seed Williams's win was overshadowed by an incident in the first set when Martinez Sanchez broke to lead 3-2, although the crucial point-winning shot appeared to rebound off her arm.

"The ball did touch her 100 percent on her arm. The rules of tennis are when the ball hits your body, then it's out of play," said Williams.

"You lose a point automatically. So the ball hit her body, and therefore, she should have lost the point instead of cheating."

However, Martinez Sanchez insisted she was innocent.
