< The Rise And Fall Of One Of The Most Polarizing Athletes In Sports

I guess I missed the part where she became “one Of The Most Polarizing Athletes In Sports”

Give me a break - she was a young, sexy & beautiful tennis player, but polarizing? LOL

Dennis Rodman was “polarizing.”
Micheal Vick was “polarizing.”
The ear biting Mike Tyson was “polarizing.”

Anna & her sister are two hot babes, but polarizing?

>the retired star celebrates her 31st birthday today.
Wish I was there with you, Anna!

You're not thinking like the lesbian sisterhood that dominates womens' professional sports and influences Media opinion-makers directly and indirectly. ("Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel")

She was definitely polarizing. In her heyday, she was one of the highest paid, endorsed and famous athlete in the world, despite not winning much of anything. She was arguably the most popular female tennis player in the sport, more-so than the Williams sisters. Many fans didn't understand what all the fuss was about. Advertisers understood it quite well, that men will watch ladies tennis when the players look like Anna Kournikova.

Back in her heydey, the feminists HATED her, and everything she stood for. I got suspended for posting too many Kournikova stories to FR, but it was all in the interest of maintaining journalistic integrity.

The headline is a misprint. It was supposed to read...

'Anna Kournikova: The Rise And Fall Of One Of The Most Pole Arising Athletes In Sports'
