Its kinda funny mostly naked men in advertising campaigns is fine women wearing suprisingly more clothing then you see in plenty of other adverts and its banned for being too sexy.

I think it was the 'grunting' that did it, though really I don't see that as enough to ban it.

It wasn't banned. The company just decided (wisely) that it was a piss poor, inappropriate, incredibly odd way to sell a tennis game. That and I guess they figured people would be too busy laughing at Serena Williams being called the sexiest tennis player in the world to notice the actual game.

Lots of places said it was banned, they probably using that for publicity.
Still Serena being called sexy is indeed hilarious.

Well, That sure was a hilarious video that I never got to saw. Thanks Take 2.
Searching for it on YouTube leads to a 3 day old video that's also taken down by Take 2.
