Kournikova 'no longer sexiest tennis player'

A tennis magazine says Slovakian teenager Daniela Hantuchova has replaced Anna Kournikova as the sexiest woman in the game.

Hantuchova was awarded the title by pundits for Ace magazine.

Kournikova was second, followed by Austrian player Barbara Schett.

Swiss player Miroslava Vavrinec and Jelena Dokic, of Serbia-Montenegro, also made the top five.

The Daily Mail reports Hantuchova has the longest legs in lawn tennis. At 44 inches they're five inches longer than those of her rivals.

The 19-year-old, who's ranked 11th at Wimbledon, said: "I always try to look my best on court. It is very flattering to be chosen as the sexiest player."

But she added: "The most important thing is how I perform on court."

Thanks, codebreaker, but I have the ubiquitous "access denied" frame displayed. Guess I'll have to wait until I get home

Using my personal scientific scoring criteria for rating tennis babes, I'll have to give Gabby two points for perkiness!

I always get a kick out of those who knock Anna K.

My questions are - "How is your world ranking?"
and "How many world class tournaments have you been in lately"

They don't give rankings away based on good looks you know.
