great criticism from a guy who cannot spell "nothing" and "major" correctly .I am sure u have never held a tennis racket let alone know the rigours of professional tennis, Sania is 46 in the WTA and thats something .That is why there is a hype about her srinivas- we indians love to bash our sport stars, and the most vehment are those who have never Played a Sport in their life. My honest advice to srinivas and your like is, get a life man and while you are at it learn some grammar ,then write all you like.

Hi Vinod

Debate on the points raised by Srinivas. Why are you bothered about his English. Somebody can criticise you for something else. So no body is perfect

Exactly and that's what he's trying to put in words.... nobody is perfect...

please don't criticize sports stars just because you feel they owe you something... quite frankly Sania is the first Indian woman to come into the top 50s.... even after two years of her breaking grounds she doesn't have a compatriot in the top rung of 100...

that speaks volumes about her

Hello Ram,
Just a 5 year old kid in Tamil Nadu (India) is having a record of running 29.5 km in 2 hours 49 minutes and 33 seconds. And you boast yourself in running Boston Marathon. Feel ashamed of yourself.

It is really a great achievement to run and complete the boston marathon.Very well done. People who doesn't know how difficult it is to run or to hold their diiick upright are the ones who are belittling your achievement. Balls to them . They can just say that a 5 year old kid ran but they can't even run a mile swinging thier pot belly. The 5 Year old kid has also done a wonderful job in completing the marathon,. Wishing you both for your great achievements.
