Pride goeth before a fall. Playing her first clay court match of 2009, the 2002 French Open champion and reigning U.S. and Australian Open champion Serena Williams lost 6-2 2-6 6-1 to crafty lefty veteran Patty Schnyder at nearly 1am local time in Rome late Tuesday night.On Monday, Serena said this:
"We all know who the real number one is. Quite frankly, I'm the best in the world."
As Craig Hickman says, "Serena, next time keep your tongue tied."

I think this makes 4 losses in a row to Schnyder, mostly on clay. Serena's self-confidence has led to a hell of a career (can we say Aussie '07?), but today proves she needs to chill out once in a while.
