Appreciate the colour pics. Is really interesting to see what other sport interests each of these player has. I really wouldn't want to come up against Federer in fecing after seeing what he can do with a racquet

**maxuilg** · 07-13-2008, 03:02 PM

There is one on the ITF site. Let me look for the link and post it later today, I have to go to sleep now as my son will be waking me up in 3 hours...

GV Girl is the book in color or black and white?

**ArrichMer** · 07-13-2008, 06:35 PM

Tomas and Lucie just look so cute...

**georgshult** · 07-13-2008, 07:02 PM

I rarely find her attractive, but Sharapova looks gorgeous in her picture.

**georgshult** · 07-13-2008, 07:04 PM

Sharapova

That's strange. These are different pictures, not just different color schemes. What gives?

Different ones for Ivanovic, too. Must have been a different shot from the photosession

Where's the link?!?!? I'm ASSUMIN' that GV is wide awake by now.....

I had a link but I don't see it on the page that I bookmarked.

I'm going to ask someone at the ITF for details and let everyone know.

Unfortunately the book is NOT for sale.
It was produced to promote tennis in the
Olympics and has been distributed to player/media/tv broadcasters/tennis
national associations/other sports federations/IOC/National olympic
committees.

Sorry!

**VeniHemealm** · 07-14-2008, 03:44 PM

I'll check Ebay.

**Kdgjhytiy** · 11-07-2008, 08:44 PM

The ESPN tennis page has a photo gallery of tennis players "competing" in the Olympic sport they would most like to participate in. Here's Sharapova as an rhythmic gymnast:

Among others, there's Federer as a fencer, Ljubicic and Ancic as water polo players, and Ana as beach volleyball player. Doesn't she know they usually wear very skimpy bikinis?

wow, I love the pictures. Thank you so much for posting them. (and now I know where Ti-Amie and Moose got their fabulous avatars from).

Maria looks just gorgeous.

**Roorseprate** · 11-07-2008, 09:04 PM

**huylibizonoff** · 12-08-2008, 06:56 AM

I saw all of this a little while back. JUST beautifully done. They truly should exploit the hell out of this, for the sake of Our Game.

Guess who now has the book?

**Quiniacab** · 12-08-2008, 07:05 AM

These look nice in color. Sharapova's, especially.

Mauresmo's too. I love all of the different colors. I wonder if she thought it was going to be in color.
