WISE GAL....

One brilliant statement made by a sportsperson in a long time!

"If two people out of a billion file a case on me, the whole world hears about it and it is wrongly projected to be a mass reaction against me."

Ok. But here's what it's about , Sania --

Ok, you really should settle and play on in another country cos most in India don't realize you're marginally better than current players. That might help. However:
- You'd likely lose big time early in Bangalore. Why get embarrassed? Better to lose faraway.
- You really aren't a big champ. For very mediocre achievements, you've been sensationalized by India's II rate media, and comedians that observe any half-step you do. The latter is unfair to you.
- Perhaps you'd do a lot better away from the attention, unless you really want it.
- At 21 many have had multiple GSlam or at least Tier I titles. Seeing you play, that is not happening now.
- Consider yourself a trailblazer for now, and maybe someone else will come along because of you and be a real achiever.
-That doesn't mean you deviate, and try to mop up ads $$ and build a tennis academy.

Let us not judge anybody

It is Sania's decision and she has her own reasons which are valid.

Let us put ourselves in her position. Extraneous matters are dragged in, which can affect anybody throwing the game in the back burner. I do not think any other tennis player is scrutinsed and vilified, at least by some, for non tennis reasons.

It is not a question of patriotism. It is a question whether she can perform without dragging her into another controversy. The same dress code by other players in our soil hardly bats an eyelid, but for Sania it is a different matter altogether.

I appreciate her success thus far and the fact that no other women player is likely ever to rise to this extent, makes her success all the more to be appreciated.

I wish her the best wherever she plays.

Poor Sania..

I pity this female and all other sportspersons in this country. If she is mentall distress, the indian tennis association shd come to her rescue. See the way the India chess federation helped out Anand when he was not getting his due #1 ranking.

Anyway..hope she plays on..and inspires a new generation of tennis players...who will someday help an indian win a grand prix tournament.

Way to go, sania, we are proud of you
by DV Nayak on Feb 06, 2008 02:34 PM

A mindless media-driven controversy avoided.
Sania, you have won a better tournament than the Bangalore open!
The lady is no child.
Thanks for making a small sacrifice for a better cause. Not giving an excuse to create problems is much more valuable than solving the problem. Prevention is much better than cure.
Thank you, Sania.
Wish the so called well-adored media-hungry "successful" women of India thought like this.

You are right, Sania !
by Raja on Feb 06, 2008 02:12 PM

What to expect from a highly talented & promising sports-person when she is being criticised for any thing she does ... her low skirts ( BTW, why the dirty Mullah was looking at her skirt ?), how she kept her foot & where ( Was it really deliberate ?). There are some people in this country who can do anything for getting cheap publicity ...

How many Sania India produces every year or even a decade ? Why can't we understand that she is also a human being only & can break under pressure due these cheap tactics ?
