Tennis Athletes are the best in the world? In a recent interview..Pete Sampras revealed that in his opinion that ATP and WTA tour players are some of the best athletes the world has to offer.

What do you think fans? Are tennis players the best in the world?

I for one would have to agree, these guys live out of whatever they can cram into suitcases and their bags, cross into different timezones weekly, are on every continent each year.. live out of hotels, and hardly have time to be home 11 months out of the year. No other sport does this.

However I think Decathlon athletes have it the hardest, training for these events is metally and physically tough. Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post

RE:Tennis Athletes are the best in the world? it takes a lot to be a top ranked tennis player i.e. physcial stamina, hand-eye coordination, strength and mental toughness. i mean a match can last more than 4-5 hrs. i can't imagine playing that long. so, i have to agree that tennis players are one of the best athletes.

however, i also think skateboarders make good athletes as well. that is a tough sport as well.

They do work..living out of those little 12 pack bags, being in a new timezone every week, traveling to every continent every year. And they gotta find time to eat, exercise and use the restroom all inbetween that. Trekking the globe before 2012. Reply \| Quote \| Subscribe to post
