You are right credit needs to be given, but only a very small amount. Women's tennis players make the same amount of money, but play less sets, while hitting less balls per set, they do not even create the same amount of revenue for the tennis tournament themselves.
Women do not compete as hard as the men. The problem is..they do not play as many points as the men do in a calendar year. Also, the depth of the women's game is just not at the same level.
in the past Venus and Serena boasted that they could defeat any male player within the top 200... the player that took them up on that challenge was a chain smoker who would light up a cig between changeovers.... he completely destroyed both of them ^_^ GG
@jdezzey85 you are 100% correct. I would go even further and say that a women's tennis player cannot even get one ATP point in a US futures. Women's tennis is an embarrassment and Klahn is top 600 in the world and just won NCAA's. Lets be real here its not even a competition.
Seriously, these comments are ridiculous. Do you guys really expect a woman to be able to physically compete with the best male players or even juniors in the world? Women do not have the athletic potential that men can have, OF COURSE there is going to be a huge gap between the ATP and WTA. But the women try just as hard to compete as the men do! They need to be given some credit.
hitting a tennis ball is hitting a tennis ball... College players play match after match and are just as match tough.. I'm sure there is a reason that the video is edited to only points that she won. I've practiced with top womens players and top college players.. There is no comparison. Why do you think all these women are coming out of retirement and winning tournaments? Because the women's tour has never been this weak before. Steffi Graf in her prime would stomp serena right now.
I mean its not like they showed every point... i could edit any match ever played and make it look like anyone is winning.. Womens tennis is terrible... I'm sure he won pretty easily..
Jelena Jankovic was a former number 1 in the world, so I think she can hold her own against a collegiate player, even the highly ranked ones. She has a better backhand than him and she's a smarter player. It was not an accident. That goes for most of the top ranked WTA players.
@scbaldwin13, you are mistaken. I was a tennis pro, and I can tell you that the good college players are far and away better than the women. Remember that this is an edited video.
He was not "taking it easy". The deal is that the practice player plays as hard as they can, that is the entire purpose. She is simply a better tennis player. Get over it, it won't make your ween any smaller to accept the truth.
Klahn was just coming off his freshman year in college, he's not some seasoned guy with a high ATP rank, if he has one, it's probably extremely low. He does not look like he was taking it easy, he probably was just nervous playing Jelena and didn't play well because of it.
actually. im pretty sure he's just nervous. who wouldn't be if u were playing against a pro. he was obviously chosen because of his skillz, and he felt like if he doesn't live up to it then it'll be bad.

Even the that college kid is probably more athletic and stronger than Jelena, Jelena has the experience in matchplay that boy won't have for a while.
