For a few years in the late ’90s, the mere sight of Anna Kournikova’s long blonde hair, toned upper body, drool-worthy legs, and midriff-revealing Adidas shirts were among the only reasons that men tuned in to watch pro tennis. Sure, she wasn’t the most talented player to ever hit the courts—often being criticized for “looking good but never winning”—but even that characterization isn’t entirely fair. While her singles career stagnated, Kournikova did carve out an impressive doubles career—earning a pair of Grand Slam titles in 1999 and 2002 with partner Martina Hingis.
