[edit]

The nickname 'Barcelona Bumble-Bee' was used by just one US newspaper commentator, so far as I know. I've never heard it used in the UK. In Spain I believe she was known as 'Tiger' or 'Lion' a tribute to her fighting qualities.

Unlike other top players of her era, she had no special stroke, nor a powerful service. She was no amazon either. In fact she's an inspirational model for the ordinary player - hence the vague commentary references to her powers of 'retrieval', as if that won you grand slams.

That she 'stung' other notable players sounds condescending. A woman who won two grand slams and was a finalist in the other two in 1994 deserves better.

I believe she has received the Spanish equivalent of the Nobel Prize for her social work off the court.

Where does she live?

[edit]

The Andorrans are claiming that she lives there (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Andorrans). Is there any evidence one way or the other? CsikosLo (talk) 16:14, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for wider input on discussion at WikiProject Tennis

[edit]

There is a long, ongoing discussion at WP:Tennis about the tournament tables found in tennis articles on English-language Wikipedia (e.g., this type of table). The discussion is about whether the "official sponsored name" of a tournament - such as Pacific Life Open - or another tournament name without the sponsor - such as Indian Wells Masters - must be used in those articles. Please join the discussion here. Thanks. Tennis expert (talk) 09:18, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That article started as mdy, not dmy,[1] so according to MOSNUM, it should remain as origianlly started since it is not associated with an English-speaking country that uses dmy.--2008Olympianchitchat 08:37, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
