Judy Murray's got her eye on Darren Cahill, Andy Roddick gets in on Tebow fever, and tennis writers and commentators take a stand against Margaret Court's anti-gay marriage remarks. Here's the week's best from the tennis Twitterverse.

Tweet of the Week: Canadian junior Genie Bouchard, 17, puts together the perfect combination of 140 characters to accurately express how every single tennis player must feel when they lose their last match of the season.

Best of the Rest

6. We have a Situation: I can't weigh in on the "Jersey Shoreness" of that Ken doll until I see the abs. And an Ed Hardy T-shirt. And an inflated sense of self.

5. The Snozzberries taste like Snozzberries!: I've never wanted to lick my computer screen more. That cake looks delicious and, as it turns out, Laura Robson ended up winning the holiday bake-off at the National Training Center in London.
