Not crazy at all, Sharapova is hot as fuck and more marketable. Also Serena has made more than double Sharapova when strictly talking tennis earnings.

Hot white girl with charisma and star power in "more bankable to western sponsors" shocker!

Anna Kournikova made MILLIONS in the early 00s, even having her own PlayStation tennis game, despite never being a top tier player. Star power > achievements if we're talking overall money making possibilities.

How much more would you like her to have?

Shes represented in movies, TV shows, and songs. Ask 100 people to name a female tennis star and all 100 are saying her or Venus. Ask those 100 people to name another one and I guarantee a handful would be able to do that.

Do you really want her to have more recognition or do you just want to start an argument based on nothing?

Let's forever judge her based on a bad day. It's the American way. If you want to be a celebrity, you better also have an inhuman infinite supply of good days where nothing irritates you and you always react 100% rationally.

Funny that a topic about her came up as I just recently started following her on instagram and was going through her pictures. I didn't know she married a white guy and some of the comments about her marriage are BRUTAL.

IIRC her husband created or owns reddit.

Look at Anna Kournikova she never won anything in tennis and made a lot of money overall. They make money by being models mostly for advertising.

To be fair, if you threw that tantrum in a regular people job, you'd be fired

Yeah, this. There's no way any tennis star, current or former, is making more or is more renown than the Williams sisters.

Not if you're one the very best at what you do. Luckily some people can't afford to majorly impact someones life over a bad day.

yes, we know that White skin is more marketable in countries that favor White people.

we know that Black people have to be exceptional to get a mention, and that Black women especially also have the added pressure of needing to be pleasing to the male gaze.

we know that people are also speaking for themselves when they say and co-sign things like post #2. it's fucked up, but that's their truth.

still doesn't matter too much in the end, though. she fought harder than the majority her tennis peers and is the most accomplished out of the rest of those women. she gets plenty of love and support from the people that matter most to her, so who else's respect does she still need? lol

I don't think she's ugly in the face either, so she can just plain get it.

But more importantly, she's the GOAT.

I was the very best at my job and i got fired(years ago). They screwed themselves though, because the place went to shit after they let me go lol so i ended up with the last laugh (and a better job)
