I second that...I also fear she is way too skinny and needs to build up before you can really call her hot, because now she's just a twig
I wish Martina was still playing, she had beauty and grace. Loved watching her and Anna play doubles.
DH is a skeleton, and, no offense here, she has that wide Slavic facial bone structure that doesn't appeal to everyone. But I'd hit it. Anyway, she's on the cover of every tennis magazine in Japan, because there, they really like scrawny chicks-the bonier the better.
Hingis' Mom, wasnt it a couple years ago when tennis magazine nominated her for the worst hair on tour??? hingis = huba huba huba
hantuchova is amazing.she definetly needs more weight. hingis is the ****, shes amazing, really beautiful when she has her hair in a ponytail/long hair.
Unfortunately, she's back with Nigel Sears. She was working with Solly, but then let him go after Tokyo. Didn't like his work ethic. He was planning on rebuilding her game from the ground up, including getting rid of that silly head tilt on her serves, but I guess she didn't like the thought of getting back in winning form again. She's my favorite female player, but she has GOT to do something to get back on track. ..Joe
I love her game. It is all mental? She has great groundies and spanks the ball. I don't see why H. Salomon has to revamp her game from the ground up. She just needs to come in more when she has someone wide and off-court. This is what Landsdorf to helping Sharapova with.
So if even a woman as thin as DH can swing a wicked PC, how can you possibly feel that it is toooooo heavy? Still believe Serena could curl DH in one hand and Sharapova in the other.
Kournikova wins hands down in my eyes. These new girls coming onto the sences has nothing compare to Anna.
Look at her average number of UE's per match. They're huge. She gives away far too many points, and they're usually on the forehand side. Studying her groundies, you'll see that her head is pushed way over on her serves and her forehands, though not the backhand. Her serves have dropped considerably in speed, and she commits an overwhelming amount of her UE's from the forehand side. Her balance is all skewed, and the shots simply don't work. Additionally, she had her greatest successes when she played an all-court style. Over the last 2 years, she's gone more to a baseline game, with a steady decline in wins and rankings. Solly saw all this and was trying to make the changes that would get her past these problems. On another board I moderate, some posters were talking to Solly about this, and he told them where he wanted to take her. He was looking at 6 months (at least) to turn this around, but then she drops him and goes back to Sears, who, for the last 2 years hasn't coached her to anything significant. She has the capability: She's already proved that. Now she just needs to put it together, and I don't think Nigel is the man to lead her there. ..Joe
What a shame, I would love to see her get back on track. She was one of my favs a couple of years ago.
