The Hottest Players In The History Of The French Open | Thebigtip

The French Open, known for its clay courts, being French and being the only tournament Roger Federer consistently falters in. While Wimbledon has always been the most prestigious tournament, there is no denying that the French Open is special.

The tournament is done and dusted for another year with Rafa Nadal bagging another title and Li Na winning China’s first Grand Slam title ever.

I'd like to pay homage to this year's wonderful tournament and give you something to look forward to next year, by presenting the Hottest Players in the History of the French Open. There are only two ground rules for appearing on this list—the player played in the tournament, and the player was hot when they did so.

Steffi Graf
Highest French Open Finish: Champion (1987, 1988, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1999)
With Six Open Championships it'd be rude not to include the German former World no. 1.

Chris Evert
Highest French Open Finish: Champion (1974, 1975, 1979, 1980, 1983, 1985, 1986)
A French open Champ and an old love interest of the Great White Shark, Greg Norman.

Ashley Harkleroad
Highest French Open Finish: Third Round (2003)
Did you know that Harkleroad was the first professional tennis player to ever pose naked for the American version of Playboy?
Actually, chances are that's the only thing you know about Harkleroad, as she never ranked higher than No. 39 on the WTA Tour.

Ana Ivanovic
Highest French Open Finish: Champion (2008)
The hottest champion in the history of the French Open, hands down.

Maria Sharapova
Highest French Open Finish: Semifinals (2007)

As always when discussing attractive Ladies tennis players the top end is dominated by beautiful Russian women. The first Maria Sharapova. (Sasha Vujacic punches well above his weight.)

Maria Kirilenko
Highest French Open Finish: Fourth Round (2010)

Another Russian and just as sexy.

Anna Kournikova

Another Russian and the Hands-Down Sexiest!
