Why is it that life never lets you enjoy anything for too long? When Sania Mirza arrived home in India after her fourth round defeat by Maria Sharapova at the U.S. Open she was treated as a conquering hero, the first Indian woman to ever make it the the fourth round of a Grand Slam.
I thought it was great that the Indian public was able to look at the "glass half full" and recognize Mirza's accomplishments rather than comparing her level to that of Sharapova's, who is the same age as her.
But now some fool of a cleric in Kolkata, India has decided to issue a fatwa against Mirza because of the clothing she wears on court. From the AP: Muslim group slams female Indian tennis star for wearing revealing clothing
