Wimbledon women tennis players / grunting

WTF is it that these women have to grunt to hit the ball, it seems like they do it even on soft shots. I have to turn the volume down, it drives me crazy and it always seems to be the ugly one. Monica Seles started this behavior and I think they need to put a stop to it.

I don't understand why they don't play topless. Seems like clothing would just be a hinderance.

I think Monica Seles was banned from grunting during matches....

I agree, I think it's just a bit silly.

perhaps Seles took one too many self-defense classes

The only reason I tune into Womens Tennis is for the grunting. I just close my eyes and picture Anna...

some of you guys must be in the "just lie there quietly for two minutes until I'm done" camp.

Anyone grunting during tennis is disgusting. What's next, the Oakie nose blow.

Who gives a shyte if the ball is in or not... does she really make those things counter-rotate?

The grunting never bothered me. I have met the Williams girls in person, they are huge and make a guy like me (5'7" 160 lbs) look like a girly man.

Anna, last I heard she lives in Sobe I wonder if Rammstien has ever seen her around town.

I seriously wonder if the Williamses should be playing in the "womens" division. That's some scary-lookin' woman. Both of 'em.
