TV Fashion: Mark Philippoussis of Age of Love
![You know, there's something to be said for looking for love on a television reality show: You earn a decent paycheck, you meet some nice people, and you get enough exposure to put some air under the flailing wings of your sports career. OK, so that might not be the exact way Australian tennis player Mark Philippoussis wants to describe his involvement in "Age of Love", NBC's Monday twist on finding romance on camera. But let's not kid ourselves, if he doesn't get healthy soon, he will forever be associated with the word "love." And in tennis, love is a bad thing.](http://www.zap2it.com/media/alternatethumbnails/story/2007-06/30702926.jpg "You know, there's something to be said for looking for love on a television reality show: You earn a decent paycheck, you meet some nice people, and you get enough exposure to put some air under the flailing wings of your sports career.

At Wimbledon, tennis stars are still scoring points for fashion
![SOMETIME last week, center court at Wimbledon began to look more like a fashion show than a tennis tournament. There was Serena Williams warming up in a chic, belted, white trench coat under cloudless skies, Roger Federer as Jay Gatsby in a white cardigan with an "F" insignia, and Maria Sharapova getting trounced in a sheer, pleated-front bib top and shorts. They call that a tennis tuxedo by the way, not a Tennessee tuxedo, and her opponent, fellow Russian Alla Kudryavtseva said afterward, "I don't like her outfit. Can I put it this way? It was one of my motivations to beat her."](http://www.latimes.com/media/alternatethumbnails/story/2008-07/40610550-10163709.jpg "SOMETIME last week, center court at Wimbledon began to look more like a fashion show than a tennis tournament.
