Demonstrates how much tennis talent Kournikova had. Her main weapon was her hands and natural feel which you can't really teach. If she had concentrated more on her tennis I think she would have won some tournaments... perhaps even got to some more slam semis and finals and maybe even won a slam in a weaker draw. Problem was she emerged at a time when tennis competition was at all time high with the likes of Hingis, William sisters, Davenport, Capriati, Pierce, Clijsters and Henin all hitting their peaks, Seles still a force to be reckoned with and Sharapova, Dementieva, Azarenka and Ivanovic emerging. It was always going to be so difficult for her to be a world-beater unless she committed 110 per cent and put all the extra work in..in gym, on court and mentally. Still a wonderful player to watch with some lovely variety 🙂
@@alexpiper1115 She still was playing at a professional level. Do you know how many players on tour never win a tournament? Do you know how many never even make it to the tour?

Reaching number 8 in the world without winning a singles title is about as awkward as Clijsters, Jankovic and Wozniacki reaching number 1 in the rankings without having won a Grand Slam . I would even argue that reaching number 8 is even more awkward and kinda pathetic. she couldnt even win a 250 level event.

Years ago I played tennis on courts in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan that were near railroad tracks. When a train came by it was deafening! There was a young blonde girl who was maybe 11 or 12 that would often take lessons there. She always had an entourage with her, and she was also very good. I learned years later that Anna Kournikova practiced there when she was a junior, so I'm pretty sure it was her.
I hate to break it to you, but Anna moved to the US at age 10 and lived and trained at Nick Boliteri’s tennis academy in Florida, why on earth would you think she’d end up in Michigan lol😂
@@jefffawcett She was in Michigan due to a connection to the Russian hockey player, Sergei Fedorov, who played for the Detroit Red Wings. My guess is that he funded her move. This was during the summertime, and she no doubt went to Florida when Michigan weather got cold. When she was older she dated him and was seen with him on his boat that he kept in the Gross Point area. Now you know.
@@cabforwardooo9983 right. The 20-something famous defecting hockey player brought an unrelated 10 year old girl over and in the summer she played tennis in Michigan, far from her world famous tennis coach. They probably knew each other cause they were both from Russia. Just stop
@@jefffawcett I lived in the Detroit area at the time and it was in the local news after Anna became well known when she was still a teen. Fedorov was the star player for the Red Wings, and was very popular. I have no idea how the connection was made, but Anna and her mother came to the Detroit area where Fedorov lived. When Anna got older she became his girlfriend, but it didn’t last. There’s probably a story on the Internet about it.
Anna Kournikova...the one who started the Russian brigade in Tennis. It was just unfortunate she was in an era where there are many legendary players. The peak Kournikova can crush some of the top tenners today. Her net defense is pretty good and the backhand is wow. It does not really hurt that she plays with as little noise as possible. No one, not even Sharapova can match what she's brought to Russian tennis and for women's tennis too!
Steffi was the best to play the game. The 99 French Open was a great tournament for her. She beat Kournikova, Davenport, Seles and Hingis for the title.
@@HA-vv3lw Serena as GOAT is insane? Really? That's an absolutely ridiculous comment. Serena with twenty-three (23) grand slam singles wins, and an almost 20 year dominance in woman's tennis does not warrant as the greatest woman's player? She was greater for a longer period of time. Who was Serena's equal during her great prime years? Answer: No one. Steffi Graf was a great player with twenty-two (22) grand slam singles wins, eleven (11) of which came after the stabbing of Monica Seles. Seles was her equal, if not arguably better (before the injury), with eight (8) grand slam titles by the time she was 19. That's impressive. It is MORE THAN FAIR TO SAY that had Monica Seles not suffered her attack, she would have taken at least 5, 6 grand slam titles from Graf. No question.
James Anthony James, I’m talking about skills set that Steffi had, not muscular and hard working Serena. Just like in Nadal, Novak: they are both great and I’m a Roger fan and I believe they are gonna surpass him in Grand Slam numbers, but that never guarantee them GOAT Status that Federer possess. It is talent that matters the most.
@@HA-vv3lw When someone is the GOAT, that person is the greatest player of all time, regardless of their individual skill or talent. In any sport talent is just one factor of a person's game that makes them a good or great player or the GOAT. Becoming the GOAT is about how you played, who you beat, how many titles you won, how consistent you played and for how long, and how dominant you were against the competition in the era that you played. Desire, drive, determination, mental toughness, ability to work hard, smarts are other factors that go into being a great player.
@@djordjenikolic9059 Please, she didn't have what it took from the very beginning to win anything of note - let alone majors - injuries or no injuries.
@@djordjenikolic9059 You tell me. What did she ever win? When she came on to the scene, what made you think, 'OMG, here is a PLAYER to be reckoned with (on the court, that is)?'

And don't tell me she was a good athlete, because they're all good athletes in varying degrees at that level. As for injuries, I've seen her get beat a few times and injuries was never the reason given why she lost. She didn't have the game.

She made her money and left. Why beat yourself up when you're going to get knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round? It doesn't take a coach to see that.
