Tennis: is it me or.....?

Question

...does the ATP top five women in tennis look like the defense of Stalingrad? only the Williams are in the top 10. What the hey is going on....?

Answer 1

Excuse me, are you saying they are not particularly attractive or are you referring to the fact that there are three Russians in the top five of the WTA Tour?

Answer 2

What are you talking about? If I'm not mistaken, and I shouldn't be, the ATP is the mens tour. Your thinking of the WTA, the women's tour. =)

Answer 3

huh

Answer 4

Yup the communists are now invading tennis.

Bad luck for the Americans though

It's just that the better players rule the sports just to be fair coz' they're good & capable to win against the rest. Fair Play.

Good times bro

Answer 5

ATP is the men's tour if I'm not mistaken.    There are many Russians in the top twenty women, though.    I think they are more motivated, and American women have many more options besides tennis.

Answer 6

I do agree with Tennis Lover 23: Are you referring to their looks or the fact that there are a fair number of Russians in there... or to the fact that many of them are lesser known? If it's the latter, I think it's just the top ten filling out. Happened on the men's side after Sampras and Agassi went bye bye. Stars aren't born overnight. Just be patient. Players you may not be familiar with today just may be the stars of tomorrow.

Answer 7

Yes... yes it does. Love the analogy, made me laugh.

Answer 8

Excuse me but Ivanovic and Jankovic are not Russians, have nothing to do with Stalingrad, which is a couple of thousands miles far away from Belgrade. I know that to you Americans half of Europe looks the same and that you are not that good with geography but you should try harder before popping up with this sorts of questions.

Thus, my answer is No. The defense of Stalingrad is pretty poor at top five
