I don't know if I am alone here, but I have always thought that Petra is rather pretty. I know, very skinny, but she is cute.

All tennis players are cute at a minimum..they are so fit anyway, that goes a long way...

Objection, Radek Stepanek. That was mean, I know.

What you say is true, and they are also all young. Young and fit gets you about 80% of the way there.

I never thought Juan Monaco was cute when he played, then I saw him off the court after he retired. Not only is he exceptionally handsome, he smelled amazing. I've mentioned this before, but I never miss a chance to say it again—Juan Monaco managed to smell fantastic in the US Open heat and humidity.

And for how long did you follow Juan Monaco around sniffing at him?

I was downwind. Actually I chatted with him for 15 minutes about a junior player he was coaching and I was writing about. I just sat behind him in the stands - on a side court - and asked some questions on changeovers. He was super nice. And I didn't recognize him. I couldn't see his credential around his neck and finally asked his name. I was mortified. But he looked a lot different.

I got a chance to see both Feli and David Ferrer in person. For me Ferrer is the more handsome of the two.

OMG. First thought: Megan is a stalker! Then, reading that part, I thought: STRAIGHT out of National Geographic: "The predator positions herself downwind as she hunts her prey..."
Silence of the Slams?
(JOKEEEEEE! )

Re stepanek, there must be something very attractive about him..the way Vaidisova, even Kvitova at one time, were falling for him..
I suspect he is funny..

+ Hingis? (IIRC)
As you say: he married Nicole Vaidisova. TWICE. He must have some charms.
(Maybe he smells good? Megan? )

Is that what we're calling it now, "charms"?

I have been burned too many times in my life (and here at the forum) for my choice of words.
So, if I am allowed a euphemism, I will make use of it. You can call Radek anything you want
