Are We Too Indian?
Well, I don't know the answer to that question- and I probably won't
answer that for a while. But whether you are Indian or not, I bet you
love following Indian sports. From Kabadi to Field Hockey, we got
everything. That beautiful girl you see on the right side there is Sania Mirza.
If you don't know her now, you will find out about her soon enough. She
happens to be one of the rising stars in the tennis world. She will be
representing the desi world at the French Open. Here are some
interesting tidbits from the Hindustan Times:
She is the first Indian woman to capture a singles title
Defeated U.S Open champion and no. 4 seed Svetlana Kuznetsova in straight sets at Dubai Open '05
Climbed to no. 77 in the WTA Tour rankings very recently

Here is a very cool 2003 article by Rediff- sort of a bio thing.
You know, I have been very disappointed when I rooted for some Indian
stars in the past. But this desi looks like she knows what she is
doing. She has confidence and that killer instinct to win more titles
in the future. She has made a fan out me.
Wow. I wouldn't wanna face her on the courts any time soon.
