Amelie Mauresmo french tennis player
Amelie Mauresmo is a french tennis player. She started to play seriously at 6 years old and never looked back. Her average success on the international scene does not reflect her talents. She is vulnerable under pressure and her adversaries often take advantage of this psychological weakness. She plays yo-yo having some amazing games and tournaments followed by long and difficult months. Her best season was 2006 when she won at the Australian Open and Wimbledon.

- Didn't watch much of her games but she was certainly a great player. But still cannot compare to Monica Seles. I watch a lot of tennis game during her and Steffi Graf tennis career.
