Friday, August 11, 2006; Posted: 3:59 a.m. EDT (07:59 GMT) Serena hopes to shrug off her ankle injury before her last-eight clash. CARSON, California (Reuters) -- Serena Williams became involved in a verbal spat with Daniela Hantuchova after taking a medical time-out before the start of the second set in their third-round match at the Los Angeles Open on Thursday. Williams, who went on to win 1-6 6-3 6-3, had slipped chasing a crosscourt forehand by the Slovakian seventh seed late in the first set and had to have her left ankle taped. Asked if she felt Williams's injury required the time-out, Hantuchova said: "No,I don't think so, but of course that's her call." Twice champion Williams, playing only her third event of the year because of a chronic knee injury, refuted her opponent's claim. "To be honest that's kind of childish," the former world number one said after booking a place against fellow American Meghann Shaughnessy in Friday's quarterfinals. "I obviously fell and I was kind of injured. I'm notorious for rolling my ankle and I rolled it again. It throbbed and stung but I just kept moving. "It's a shame for somebody to take the low way out. She's obviously upset over the loss. "If she has more words to say I would prefer for her to say them to me. I'd be more than happy to settle it out of court, " Williams added, before breaking into laughter. Asked if she and Hantuchova would talk further about the incident,she replied: "What happens in the dressing room stays in the dressing room." Williams said it was too early to tell if her ankle injury would affect her quarterfinal match. "Usually I have to wait until tomorrow to see how it feels but it is a little sore tonight," 小威是以1-6 6-3 6-3赢的比赛 但是首盘尾声的包紮暂停,第二三盘打的虎虎生风 引起Hantuchova抱怨! 即将在半准决赛遇上同胞Meghann Shaughnessy Come on Serena!! -- ╭──★───☆───★──╮ ∥╔═╮ ╔═╮ ╮ ╮ ∥ ∥╠╣VAN ╠╦ACHEL ║║OOD∥ ∥╚═╯ ╰╰═ ╰╩╯ ∥ ╰─★───☆───★───╯ http://www.wretch.cc/blog/anngis谁要去台北看西城 --
