* News from : https://tinyurl.com/ycs8uv3r (Tennis World USA) Hantuchova on new role as TV analyst:'Guys are surprised by my knowledge' by Luigi Gatto August 24, 2018 08:40 Daniela Hantuchova will work as TV commentator in a Grand Slam for the second year in a row. The former world No. 5 retired from tennis last year, and at this year's Wimbledon, for the first time, she analyzed tennis matches. Now she is looking forward to do it at the US Open as well. 'I loved it right away', Hantuchova on how it feels to be involved in commentary world. 'I get to share my experience, I get to talk about something I’ve done all my life, and contribute hopefully, and get back to the sport that I love. I think sometimes the guys are a little bit surprised with my knowledge, to which I reply, ‘I’ve done this for a while, so I know what I’m talking about’. When I did Queen’s with [former British number one] Greg Rusedski and we picked our favourites before the tournament, I was right and he was wrong, so that was cool, to prove the point that women do understand men’s tennis.' Hantuchova thinks women's position can be stronger, also thanks to the legacy that the WTA Founder Billie Jean King is leaving. Billie has done so much for women’s tennis. She has been fighting for equality ever since she created the tour. I think we are a little bit ahead because of the work done in the generations before us. Tennis is the leading women’s sport in the world. --------- https://imgur.com/59zA8im
