SANIA AND PAES
by umamahesh kar on Aug 13, 2008 04:50 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

I think it is unfair to put PPAES in the same bracket as SANIA. In terms of achievement, PAES is way, way ahead. SANIA, for now is more of a glamour girl, then any substance.

Paes was never ranked inside the top-75 in Singles. Sania has been in the top-30 for 2 years. She was the Asian no.1 as well. Please think before u post

Paes has won one olympic bronze, several grand slams (doubles and mixed doubles) and has given India many Davis cup victories against better opponents. What has Sania done ? Never survived beyond 2 matches in any grand slam. She is gradually becoming Indian version of Ana Kournicova

getting ranked 30 in womens tennis is nothing great one has to be within the top 15. whereas in mens tennis even 35/40 is good. In Women tennis most players are new and are ranked low but they can beat a player ranked 30/40. Sania gats easily beaten by players ranked well below her and the standard of play by sania is nowhere near.
