MACCLESFIELD, England - Carlos Tevez has been cleared to start the season with Juventus after having his court-ordered punishment rescinded in England. The former Manchester City striker still had to complete the majority of his 250 hours of unpaid community service that was imposed after a string of driving offences before leaving the Premier League club. But the terms have been changed by Macclesfield Magistrates Court near Manchester, with Tevez paying a fine now instead. District Judge Bridget Knight says "it is not, I repeat not, a case of a footballer thumbing his nose at a court order." Tevez thanked the court for its "help and assistance" and says he is "looking forward to a new chapter." Tevez joined Juventus last month in a transfer worth up to 12 million pounds ($18 million).Wholesale Shoes UK .

And she feels better than ever at age 31. The top-ranked American rolled past Spanish opponent Carla Suarez Navarro 6-2, 6-0 Friday to reach the Italian Open semifinals and extend her victory run to 22 matches. Williams had twice won 21 in a row before, although both of those streaks came a decade ago, in 2002 and 2003. Martina Navratilova established the longest womens win streak in the Open Era at 74 matches in 1984. "Ive been pretty consistent, and pretty healthy -- knock on wood," Williams said. "I feel great -- never felt better." In the other half of the draw, two-time defending champion Maria Sharapova withdrew before her quarterfinal against seventh-seeded Sara Errani due to illness. In mens action, 36th-ranked Benoit Paire of France routed Marcel Granollers of Spain 6-1, 6-0 to reach his first Masters series semifinal. His next opponent will be either 17-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer or rising Polish player Jerzy Janowicz, who were playing in a night match. Showing off near-perfect form less than 10 days before the French Open, Williams has dropped just three games in her last two matches. Against the 22nd-ranked Suarez, the American hit winners seemingly at will. The 15-time Grand Slam winner has also won her previous three tournaments. Willliams will next face either two-time Rome winner Jelena Jankovic or Romanian qualifier Simona Halep, who were playing later on an overcast day at the Foro Italico.dddddddddddd Williams only title at this clay-court tournament came in 2002, when she beat Justine Henin in the final. That was also the year she won her only French Open title. Last year in Paris, Williams suffered her first ever opening-round loss in a major, falling to 111th-ranked Virginie Razzano of France. Sharapova said he was struggling with an illness she first contracted last week, when she was runner-up to Williams in the Madrid Open, although she showed no problems Thursday as she beat 16th-seeded Sloane Stephens 6-2, 6-1. "I was already a bit off in Madrid and played though it and it came back last night and I got sick again and its not smart to compete again," said Sharapova, adding that she had a fever after beating Stephens. "Obviously with the French Open coming up it is important to make smart decisions." The withdrawal means Errani advances to the semifinals. The Italians opponent will be either third-seeded Victoria Azarenka or ninth-seeded Sam Stosur. The last Italian to reach the semifinals in this tournament was Raffaella Reggi, who won the 1985 event, which was held in the southern city of Taranto. The French Open begins May 26. ' ' '
