Indian tennis player Sania Mirza smiles as she attends a school reception in the eastern Indian city of Kolkata, previously known as Calcutta, September 19, 2005. Mirza will receive extra security after an Islamic group opposed to her on-court dress threatened to stop her from playing in next week's WTA event, police said on Friday. Muslim clergymen have denounced the 18-year-old player for wearing skimpy skirts and colourful sleeveless tops on court, which they say are un-Islamic. REUTERS/Jayanta Shaw
