......earlier this week, that everyone thought Vera Zvonareva is the most talented out of the group of Russians. Is this really the consensus of the tennis world?

I don't think there really is a consensus in the tennis world, there's too many to chose from.

 

[treufreund]

Vera is very talented.

 

[Brens]

Tracy Austin talks to damn much. :fiery:

Her voice is annoying! :banghead:

 

[Martian KC]

lol ZAK!

There is no denying Vera is talented, but I have always thought Svetlana Kuznetsova was the most talented. I'm eager to see Maria Kirilenko in action though!

 

[Mateo Mathieu]

Elena Dementieva is the best of all them at the moment!!

 

[Natarajasana]

I would have to agree with Tracy, however Sharapova could become the most talented.
Difficult to say, really.
Sad to say....but I really think that Dementieva has peaked.

 

[MartinaI]

I personally think Vera is the most talented of all the current bunch of Russians. She is pretty gifted, reminds me of Martina a bit. I hope she does well here despite the injury worry.

Elena D is having a fab hardcourt season, a bit like Anna last year. Let's hope it lasts a bit longer, mind you she has won a title beating top players so there is hope!!

No.

On this board... the "most talented Russian" changes every 5 minutes.

If she doesn't improve her serve, I would agree that she's peaked. But if she does improve her serve, I think she can even challenge for #1.

I've always loved Vera since her 2002 French Open match against Serena in the 4th Round. She played and took off a set from Serena and was aggressive when she needed to be. I think she's the best Russian there is. Her improvement doesn't come in jolts and she doesn't need to make a loud debut the way Sharapova did - no pun intended. I think Vera's tennis pretty much speaks for itself. She did have a shaky tournament last week where she lost after being up 6-0 5-1 but I think she's recovering pretty well from it.

 

[Rollo]

Austin actually said while most people thought it would be Vera she (Tracy) was betting on Sharapova to be the best of the bunch.

 

[Hingiswinsthis]

yes, Tracy likes Sharapova above all the other Russian vodkas.....Martina Hingis says Vera is one to watch out for
