39. I prefer women's tennis to men's tennis any day of the week
Sat Jun 6, 2015, 10:04 AM
Jun 2015

because I think it takes more strategy and finesse to be a good female tennis player. They don't have those "400mph" serves that the men seem to build their careers on. Take this match, for example, one misstep and the tides can turn (I know this can happen in mens' tennis too but it seems more dramatic in women's for some reason).
