To that extent, it's a fair comparison. I'd say that Anna Kournikova is far more successful than Danica Patrick. On the other hand, Danica is going up against men in a male-dominated sport whereas Anna is playing against women.

I dont think Kournikova's success, compared to Patrick's, can be considered 'far more'.

What the hell did Kournikova ever do on her own? Other than market herself for endorsement deals and tank in any tournament she ever played in and after that, she retired.

At the very least, Patrick STILL is trying to make a name for herself as an open wheel race car driver and now a stock car driver.
