Posted this on /b/ looking for insight, but didn't get the appreciation I was hoping for.
As I read the story, I thought of some obvious contenders for this "title".
>Lionel Messi
>Dan Carter
>Ma'a Nonu
What are your thoughts, /sp/?
>>>/r/eddit

>literally the normiest post of 2015
Congrats, Chad.
She's the greatest female tennis player, which is plenty impressive. Any argument beyond this quickly becomes indefensible.

Nice meme

>greatest female tennis player
>female
The lot is awfully small for this, though, anon.
Don Bradman is far and away the best sportsman of all time

From wiki
>Williams holds the most major singles, doubles, and mixed doubles titles combined amongst active players, male or female. Her record of 36 major titles puts her fifth on the all-time list and second in the open era with: 21 in singles, 13 in women's doubles, and two in mixed doubles
She's only 5th all time? She's 3rd all time kin Singles alone. Roger Federer, an athlete in THE SAME SPORT AND SAME ERA holds the record for most mens singles majors ever, I'd take that over 3rd most.

Literally (literally) who
>>64447551
her and venus played some college guys and got their asses whipped apparently.
Serena beats the rest of the WTA with pure power. Outside of that power, she's a shit tennis player.
All ATP players have that power, so they have to be good in other areas of their game (strokes, spins, etc) and have to know how to handle everything.

Thats not Black Caviar you fucking spastic
>>64447518
she hasn't even won 4 in a row, she's the best because womens tennis is a farce right now and has been for the last 10 years. Also you can scratch Dan Carter and Ma'a off your list since most kiwis would be putting Richie McCaw as the best. Tiger Woods would also count as a potential contender as would Valentino Rossi

>Braasch competed in a "Battle of the Sexes" contest against Venus Williams and Serena Williams at the 1998 Australian Open when he was ranked 203. A decade and a half older than the sisters, Braasch was described by one journalist as "a man whose training regime centred around a pack of cigarettes and more than a couple bottles of ice cold lager."[2] He nonetheless defeated both sisters, playing a single set against each, beating Serena 6–1 and Venus 6–2.[3]
