The Early Show Opening July 7, 2000 (23 years ago) [Top Stories Venus & Serena, Dr. J's son dies]

The Early Show Opening from July 7, 2000, exactly 23 years ago from the day of this video posting, i.e., July 7, 2023. Some of the top news stories that day include: Venus & Serena Williams having just faced off in a Wimbledon semifinals tennis match, with Venus defeating younger sister Serena Williams, thus advancing Venus to the Wimbledon Finals where she would play and defeat fellow American Lindsay Davenport, earning Venus her very first grand slam.. Another top story that day was the death of Cory Erving, the youngest son of NBA great Dr. J (Julius Erving). Frequent Flyer Miles at airports was also in the news that day. Bryant Gumbel & Jane Clayson co-anchored The Early Show, although Bryant was off that day, so Russ Mitchell from the Saturday Early Show filled in for Bryant.
