another quality bLog brought to you by SSolid

Feel free to yak on the latest happenings in the tennis world.

WTA Championships 2006

Justine Henin-Hardenne beat Amelie Mauresmo 6-4 6-3 A good end to a good year (of making all four Grand Slam finals).



However the WTA beauty title goes to Elena Dementieva (far right)



She looks like a Bond girl alright. Sharapova looks big-boned in comparison.

As you wish




Seriously tho', she's had one hell of a great year. If you asked me two years ago if I thought she would be a grand slam winner, I would not be affirmative. La France has already built a wax statue of her even before she won her slams, I wonder what tributes are up next.

Well as a player Justine has the lot............backhand-forehand-off the ground-volley-vastly improved serve. She's had to contend with an awful lot in her life as well - full marks.

[hifiwigwam]

Why is there a photo of a man in a womans swim suit on the cover of this tennis mag? Are we to beleive that this is Amelie? Or is SS been at the photoshop? I can't work this one out, sorry if I am missing the joke.

She's got the most beautiful backhand in the women's game but its her forehand volley I admire more. Lots of snap and aggression there.

Jammy, you don't read French obviously. That magazine cover was a joke.

It's amazing & great luck for us blokes that 4 of the top 8 female tennis players are stunning & 3 attractive. Funny how interested in woman's tennis I've become

Plus it strikes me as more skillfulplus it has more rallies than the male game.

[SSM]

erm, its true I watch more women's matches than men's but mainly because I don't have the stamina to take in a full five-setter.

Is the women's game more skilful? Hard to say, but I can tell ya the reason it has more rallies is becoz the gals lack the killer instinct to put out a quick finishing shot.


SS

ps: who's the eighth player you don't rank as stunning/attractive? Hingis with the receding hairline? ;)

[SSM]

footnote: outside of the top 10 high achievers, Daniela Hantuchova is a player better noted for her looks than game.



But my vote for most stunning female tennis player goes to ex-aussie Jelena Dokic.




Slavic women have the best skin tones.

Pity her dad fell out of the same tree as kennyk...

Amelie, as well as having a stonking body, is bright, personable & a great giggle. You are looking at the meat not the soul.

DOn't know how to change the title (I'd do anything for you )

Worked it out

Here are some actual comments taken off Ms Mauresmo at post-match interviews::nerd:


"When you start off a new tournament, you want to do well."



“Don't try to look where there's no point looking, ... I think she just played a better match than me today. She just played better tennis.”

...having a notaclue brain-fart:raoflmfao:


“She's full of confidence, but this is a chance to set the record straight.”

oops...:raoflmfao:
