Yeah, was that John Lloyd's ring? Or Andy Mills?

Nastase (predictive text comes up with something completely different- try it!) hasn't aged too well. He can't be that much older than Evert but he sure looks it!

He is 8 years older

I'm a couple years younger than Chris, never thought she was all that hot, but I guess in comparison to a lot of her opponents she wasn't bad.

Chris Evert was stunning and still looks ok, and possible Botox aside, still has a great figure. Back in the day, IMHO, only sue barker was prettier of the top players.

Not a top player, but a contemporary was Kris Kemmer, and for me much better looking.

pdj is an old fart

Evert was not a top five in the 70¡¡¡

Classy post. In your opinion, she was not top 5, but I can take solace that she was, and is, much better looking than Mandlikova, Hingis & Jaeger to name but 3 (curiously they sprung to mind...).
AND Evert looked really good at the FO Presentation.

Jaeger is now a nun, so she's given her life to Jesus--not plastic surgery.

Evert was born in 1954, Hingis in 1980. So no contest: game, set, and match to Hingis.

I don't think age is a factor. I'm not sure Hingis was regularly considered a beauty in her glory days ??? Although she looks better now. Jaeger was never pretty, precocious yes. And Mandlikova...hmmmmm.
Evert, was always considered one of the more attractive tennis players. Granted, it's easier to remember her given her illustrious career.

From Evert's era, I preferred, among others:
Mariana Simionescu (Borg's ex)
Helena Anliot
Renata Tomanova
Dianne Fromholtz
Kris Kemmer (Shaw)

But, compared to say, Betty Stöve, Evert was a babe.

I only really remember Fromholtz as a schoolboy but I've seen some of the others on YouTube - Shaw was certainly attractive, but I'd still say Sue Barker was one of the prettiest of this era. Objectively, Evert was a pretty teenager, a tad less so mid 70s. Stunning late 70s-early 80s. Matronly, mid 80s. Great late 80s and never looked too bad since. A lot of professional athletes turn to fat later in life and she never has.

Rochester, good point - and if we followed that general spirit there would be far better threads on this site...

My friend and I were joking about age being the great equalizer. I think Evert looks great, but Navratilova has aged REALLY well. She has looked as good as ever the last five years or so. Clean eating/living.

Though my heart belongs to Mary Jo.

+1

Even though Martina never was really attractive she has definitely aged better than the rest.

Yup, Mary Jo probably looks the best out of all of em.

Chris Evert still looks good, always looks cool. Pin-up material in the 70's. Martina N looks well today too.

beauty is on the eye of the beholder

anyway, Chris fitted very well a model role for tennis

Sue Barker was nicer looking though¡¡¡

Hingis has as much if not more sex appeal than any other player bar her doubles mate

Cawley and Mandlikova had beautiful bodies, much better than Evert ( who was pretty good anyway)

Bueno , I also think so.

For face looking, Barker,Ruzici and Fromholtz were pretty good.

Bunge was the hottest tennis player before the 90´s...or was it Temesvari?

Bettina Bunge is still attractive - she's on FB. She's a huge Djocovic fan Cawley will always be beautiful as she was clearly also beautiful from within.
Hingis certainly had a very attractive doubles partner in AK- much to the chagrin of Hingis as I recall.
Evert, as far as I recall, never played tournaments regularly with any one considerably more attractive than her- & I include Connors in this.

i know she had plastic surgery of some kind, and it looked awful. I guess its been fixed but no way she looks almost 60

Im 40 and would marry that right now

Are you French? 'Cause she is working on a Grand Slam of Cheated on Husbands/Significant Others, and she's got 3 in the hag, I mean old bag, I mean, bag. And, she's probably in line with the recently married Kanye: WE WANT PRE-NUP!!!:wink::rolleyes:

Billy Jean looked amazing in Sochi.

My #2 crazy hot Cougar is Monica Seles:

I'm trying to figure out if you're kidding, I assume you are. They just announced that Monica is engaged to a 72 year old billionaire who is a leading candidate to own the Buffalo Bills in the NFL, so she may end up owning a football team. She looked considerably better in today's picture than she does above, btw. I remember her playing braless in the US Open and other tournaments, not a pretty sight...

That might have been the exact words Gregg Norman said to himself. 18 month later and about 40% less in the pocketbook! And before that it was Ted Turner but it was not that much the Chrissy got from Ted because of a prenup before marriage. $20 million is rumored. LOL!

Ted Turner? I don't think so. I think you have her mixed up with someone else. She was married to Andy Mill before Greg Norman.

Evert was never married to Ted Turner, that was Jane Fonda.

Evert's been married 3 times now, to John Lloyd, Andy Mill and Greg Norman.

I think that pic is from 1999-2003 period when she really ballooned. I think in her book she said that she had all sorts of eating issues which were sort of kicked into gear after her dad died.

Anyway, she's been pretty skinny for years now.

That picture is from when she first came back after the stabbing - she lost a bit of weight just from being on the tour but was never skinny again until retiring and then getting herself mentally together.

It was when she first came back on the tour that she was at her heaviest as I recall.

Considering the amount of time Chris has spent in the sun she looks amazingly well for playing outdoors for 50+ years. Billie Jean King's complexion appeared smirched for quite sometime in the early 80's as I recall. While I don't know the entire history of sunblock products, I would say those who played in the 70's forward had an advantage of better skin protection.

Praise The Lord. Thank you for tennis.

Platini is the man ( or maybe Prost?) that Chris needs to complete her GS

ex top sportman, charming french, joie de vivre and probably the best payed chair in the whole world of sports as FIFA president.Oh¡ and born the same year as Evert.
