Sharapova is nice looking compared to other female tennis players. Of course if you compare her to some Vogue model, then she would look ordinary.

I never understood why people made such a big deal about Sharapova, or Dementieva for that matter.

Kirilenko on the other hand...

Alright brother - I went and did a search, based on your recommendation, and concur. Kirilenko deserves her own poll.

I have just spoken to a 21 year old male who absolutely agrees with you. He thinks Kirilenko deserves more attention, to put it nicely.

Default Sharapova is OVER-rated

Come on, guys! This girl is not all that. Hell, she's not even the best-looking of the Russian players (Dementieva gets my vote).

She is tall and blonde. No ****, no ***, vain, her looks are are as over-rated as her game, and she's a young girl trying to be all grown-up. I have been to Ukraine and to be honest 7 out of the 10 girls I dated there are >= Sharapova. And the other 3 I'd go for over Sharapova anyways.

That said, if Maria just flung herself at me, it's on. Compared to fat, over-weight femi**** American women, Maria is way above average. But compared to her countrywomen, just average.

I'm not too familiar with Kirilenko since she's not good enough to make it to the televised rounds in the majors, but I was under the impression she was a major hottie. This the best picture you got of her?? Of these two photos, I'll take Sharapova.

I would take Sharapova too

Here is video of Kirilenko on youtube:

Of course you would Heycal, but we wouldn't want to add any bias to your little experiment of truth now would we??

As I pointed out in the "Reading the score" thread, Maria gets the most attention because she's the prettiest of the BEST players. Kirilenko, Ivanovic, Harlkeroad, and the other pretty girls don't get more attention because they're not very successful, not because of some pro-Maria conspiracy. Compare Sharapova to the other contemporary Grand Slam winners -- Clisters, Davenport, Henin, Kuzenstova, Hingis, Myskina, Mauresemo and the Williams sisters. Maria is prettier and sexier than all of them (with Hingis very close), and is perhaps the prettiest woman to have won a Grand Slam EVER in the history of the game.

Pretty + great = 20 million bucks a year in endorsements and swimsuit calendars. Why is that hard to understand for some people?

I wasn't putting my finger on the scale here -- I was serious in saying I was underwhelmed by the Great Kirilenko I've heard so much about. Maybe it was just a bad picture? I'll do some of my own research on this and get back to you...
EDIT: Just checked some video of her. She's pretty cute, but not spectacular. I'd probably still go with Sharapova.

To prove that I don't have some Sharapova bias, I'll happily admit that I'd rather take Ivanovic (judging from the photos), Harkleroad, and maybe another one or two others back to a Ruvu Hote-ru before I would Sharapova.

Get out of this thread Heycal, you are muddying the waters with your opinions. Not fair my friend - comment on the other thread, but you are affecting others here with the debate. I don't want to debate the validity of polls with you like I have to with Stormy so please Heycal!
I will state though that tall and thin does not equal pretty if we are now discussing the top, say, dozen players. A meatball on a plate of spaghetti does indeed stick out.

She is a little above average in my eyes. I do feel she is getting better looking, though.

Yes, a classic. I believe I've seen all the Seinfeld episodes (but none top the nipple). Are you equating Heycal with George Cantstandya Mick?

So 35 other people including you are allowed to "muddy the waters" with their opinions but not moi?

As I said in the other thread, the results of this poll are meaningless anyway. Polls in general aren't always reliable, much less polls like this on TT. Besides, you are free to vote her "below average" in attractiveness if you want, but she's still going to make 20 million bucks a year based in large part on her good looks.

I don't know who the hell Stormy is.

Exactly. Did you notice how her hind quarters were looking particularly fabulous at the AO?

Oops. Not to muddy the waters or anything...
