Top Seed Serena Williams 2013 Wimbledon dreams went up in smoke this week after losing to German tennis player Sabine Lisicki 6-2, 1-6, 6-4.
Noticibly absent from the high stakes tournament was Serena's father Richard Williams and insiders say it's because he was no longer interested after Venus Williams dropped out...
From Gossip Extra
"The buzz is that Richard, whose most recent cell phone is disconnected and couldn’t be reached for comment, doesn’t approve of Serena’s new coach, Patrick Dempsey lookalike Patrick Mouratoglou. Mouratoglou, btw, is also alleged to be Serena’s lover — despite the fact he’s still married to his wife. But a close friend of Richard’s tells Gossip Extra that the reason for his absence is closer to home. “He loves (tennis champ and Serena’s sister) Venus more than Serena,” said the source, who asked not to be named publicly. “Venus can do no wrong in Richard’s eyes. When Venus declared forfeit (because of an injury) for Wimbledon and didn’t go, there was no way Richard would go.”
