Kournikova-Gimelstob Revisited
Anna Kournikova is taking the high road in her dispute with fellow tennis player Justin Gimelstob. Anna, who plays for the St. Louis Aces in World Team Tennis, was in Washington to face the Washington Kastles of which Gimelstob is a team member.

He later apologized. As far as Wednesday's encounter, or lack thereof as it turns out, Anna was succinct. "I actually forgot about it until you just mentioned it," Kournikova said.
