Wimbledon is full to the brim of celebrities enjoying freebies in exchange for publicising a brand so it was refreshing to hear that Shania Twain has been coming to Wimbledon for the past three days with her own tickets, which she actually paid for. A huge tennis enthusiast, Twain visited the British Tennis fan zone and signed autographs. “The court is my gym,” she said.

The weather felt decidedly Canadian on Tuesday, which was fine with Milos Raonic – he faces Roger Federer in the quarter-finals on Wednesday. But there was a Canadian No.1 under the roof on Centre Court in his stead: Ontario’s finest, Shania Twain.
"I more play with tennis than play tennis," said the singer-songwriter, who plays for fun and fitness in her spare time. "My husband is my partner – and the guy that I enjoy beating the most."
Twain had also been around the grounds on Monday, and got the chance to meet Raonic after his five-set win over Alexander Zverev in the fourth round.
“It was a great match,” she said. “I got my picture taken with him and told him I was very proud of him. I’m sure it means more to him, of course, but as a proud Canadian I’m really honoured to watch him play. These guys work so hard, and he’s young and obviously putting his heart and soul into it."
“He’s such a calm character on the court,” she added. “Calm and cool.”

PhotoBucket has changed their policy to a PAID ONLY plan if you want to link pictures on your website, blog, message board, etc. It costs $39.99 a month for each account! I don't know what I am going to do because my pictures have been uploaded to several different PhotoBucket accounts over the years. I'm very frustrated right now! In the meantime, I guess I'll just sit tight and hope PhotoBucket changes its policy back. Millions of people are pissed!

Could you give us links to sources then while we cannot view them on Photobucket? Sad news. 40 dollars a month is TOO MUCH!

You're right, $40 a month is ridiculous! That's $480 a year!!! Plus like I said, I've had to use several accounts over the years.
I usually post all social media pics on my site's News & Notes page as well. So if you can't access them here via PhotoBucket, check my site's News & Notes page.
