Happy 35th Birthday, Misty May-Treanor. Don't celebrate too much, you've got an Olympic beach volleyball match against the Czech Republic at 11 p.m.

The international governing body tells us that there are six athletes in the beach volleyball competition who will celebrate birthdays during the tournament. Fellow American Jennifer Kessy turns 31 on Tuesday, when she'll play the Netherlands.

Also celebrating birthdays in the sand: Janis Smedins of Latvia (25), Paolo Nicolai of Italy (24), Stefanie Schwaiger of Austria (26) and Louise Bawden of Australia (31).
