I used to play tennis in college and I coached juniors tennis. When guys used to talk to me about tennis, all they knew was ANNA. Oh, and those Williams sisters who they thought were gross. It was annoying because people ask you about the sport and the only tennis player anyone cares about never actually wins tournaments. Pretty sad when you consider that at 10 she was heralded with Hingis and Venus as part of the next generation of great players and she got to the semis of Wimbledown her first time there. It's discouraging and bad for girls who grow up wanting to play as well as they can. The saddest part is that the WTA practially walked Kournikova into retirement, because they pressured her to play with stress fractures in her foot to appease fans. I just hope Sharapova doesn't dump her career by focusing on sponsorships and manginas like Enrique. Beauty does make life easy, but in the end when you're old and gray, it's just ten times cooler to say that you were hot and you won Grand Slams than to say you were hot and dated...Enrique. Blech.
