^ the thing i like about Jankovic is her attitude, she ALWAYS seems to be smiling and laughing on court, even at herself, i think she's very pretty too, she has the most interesting face i've ever seen lol - in both a good and bad way! out of the TS4 gals, she's definately my favourite, i do like to play as Ivanovic too as she seems really fast and seems to put alot of effort in when running for the ball at the baseline (maybe it's just me who thinks this on the game)

as for serena, i totally get what you mean, i dislike the way the williams sisters smash balls AT their opponents on court (then make a huge fuss about it if it happens to them) or the way they get annoyed and scream, the same reason i dislike djokovic for his tantrums

saying that i do like to see the williams sisters play as they're really good strong players, i just would prefer it if they stayed calmer and weren't quite as arrgessive, they don't need to be as they are good enough players to win fairly

i really want to see a bigger mix up of female players in the game. they should include some huge servers, huge hitters, great counterpunchers, all courters, double handed players... just to give some great variety. I would love to see Kvitova, Lisicki, Bartoli and Schiavone in the game.

i'd also love to see more women, hopefully Top Spin 5 will feature as many women as it does men, there's some big and recent names missing. A LOT of them really.

That would be nice, but the sad truth is that women players are not NEARLY as popular as men players. I really makes no sense to have them.

i guess men are more popular amongst serious tennis fans, but i think to be fair there should be an equal amount of men as women, present players anyways. male legends can be added too for sure. i for one am equally interested, if not more so, in women's tennis lately, there seems to be a lot more variety and uncertainty where as with men's you can pretty much guess who will be in the quater final and be spot on, women's is more unpredictible.

That is the case for some ppl, but casual sports fans are different. When I talk to a football player about tennis, they generally know something about mens tennis, while all they know are that "the wlliam sisters are good" about the WTA, even when serena was out.

well you might find football fans are more interested in men's sports, naturally.

But the same goes for basketball, hockey, and soccer fans. It is not just football. The sad truth is that once you watch mens pro tennis, womens pro tennis just does not look as good, because hey are just not as god as the men.

well if there were more henin's. momo amelie mauresmo, hingis, kuznetsova's minus the mental lapses, sabatini's, schiavone at the top tennis on the wta would rival the men.

But there are not. There is a pusher without a slam at number 1, and the rest are ball bashers.

Tennis is one of the premier sports for women, I cannot think of many other sports where women get paid the same as men, or where female athletes can command big endorsements, but it's on the wane because there are no new superstars.

What's the point of putting lots of females on the roster when either nobody knows who they are or they all play the same way.
