Amelie Mauresmo upset by rival Martina Hingis' return
Lesbian tennis player Amelie Mauresmo seems to be a little upset by the return of her former rival Martina Hingis. Hingis, who retired in 2002 after surgery on both ankles, recently entered a tennis tournament in Thailand and seems poised for a comeback. Mauresmo, who was briefly ranked the No. 1 female tennis player in the world last year, was defeated by Hingis in the Australian Open and, to add insult to injury, Hingis called Mauresmo "half a man." At a recent press conference Mauresmo, asked about Hingis' return, said, "I have nothing to say, absolutely nothing at all." When the questioner persisted, she reiterated "Nothing!" while walking out of the pressroom.
