PALM BEACH GARDENS: A man was charged with stalking Serena Williams after police said they caught him trying to enter the tennis star’s gated neighborhood. Palm Beach Gardens police said 40-year-old Patenema Ouedraogo told officers he was going to Williams’ home Monday night ‘because he loves her’ and ‘knows the feelings are reciprocal’. A lawyer for the 13-time Grand Slam singles champion said he had recently obtained a restraining order after Ouedraogo tried three times to contact the player.
