    4 Stars She'll be Back 23/08/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great record, good ground shots and she is still only 20, much more to come

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lets the pressure affect her game, and loses to Davenport, Williams in the power game

    Martina Hingis shock loss to Spaniard Virginia Ruano Pascual in the first round of Wimbledon was the shock of the first day, however I firmly believe that she will be back in the future to add to her collection of five grand slam titles. Born in Kosice, Slovakia on 30 September 1980, however has been brought up and now lives in Switzerland, with her popular nickname 'The Swiss Miss'. Martina is still only 20 years old, yet it seems she has been around forever. She turned pro in 1994 aged 15. Hingis has five grand slam titles to her name, she has won the Australian open three times in 1997,98 ... more

    5 Stars great player 21/09/2000
    User recommends the product
    this player is one of the best female players i have seen around in a long time. she has won many titles in her now ending career, most notably wimbledon. she did go out of this tournament in the first round to a non-seeded player when she was seeded at number one to win it, but apart from that she has mostly lived up to expectations. i still think that she still has a few grand slam victories left in her though and i hope she obtains her as she deserves them. still got a good few years left in her! ... more

    Advantages Advantages can play tennis really well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages injuries

    In 1997 Martina Hingis was the youngest winner of Wimbledon, the Swiss born now living in America has dominated tennis for what seems like a very long time, born in 1980, she began playing tennis at a very young age. Her coach is her mum, and both have seen success all the way. She is a talent to watch and has won so many titles, in 1997 she won both Wimbledon and the US Open. This year she was knocked out of Wimbledon by someone ranked below her, it was a surprise to many, but her form lately and her injuries have made things much difficult for her. It frightens me to think how young she is ... more

    5 Stars SWISS MISS 11/08/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages shes gorgeous and brilliant

    Disadvantages Disadvantages unfocused this year

    Martina has only gone off the boil because of her private life. She had a bust up with her ma and so sacked her has manager the week she lost the Dockic also she's had muppets like crap singer ricky martin persueing her. Well I think the talent is still there its just putting all the crap to one side and getting back to form. Her only real threats are the Williams sisters because they are built like men and just wack the ball hard. Martina has got it all though and this recent form is just a dip in form ... more

    4 Stars Spoilt Hingis 12/06/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great technique and control

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Has trouble with power hitters

    Martina Hingis is losing her footing. She was suddenly introduced into the big screen just as Capriatti was years back. This time it was said that Hingis would stay in it as opposed to Capriatti. It looks like Hingis will stay in it but has things to work on. It looks like her fame has gotten to her as has her craving for more money. As a top tennis player it is obvious that she is already making hoards of money but insists on getting more. At the French Open she wore a tight shirt that was long sleeved on the right side and short sleeved on the left side. She doesn't mind being the clothes ... more
