I love the Australian Open, and not because of its rich tradition as the first Grand Slam of the year. The Aussie Open works for me because it’s played halfway across the Earth and is televised in the middle of the night when my vampire a$$ is still stirring. The only problem with the tourney down in Melbourne is that there’s too much coverage of the hometown players like Lleyton Hewitt and Samantha Stosur, but that’s to be expected.
Now, I must admit that the excess coverage of Stosur made me realize she’s more jacked than half the guys on my fantasy football team. She’s easily the buffest dude chick on tour since Amelie Mauresmo. The question is, who’s the more ripped player between her and Spanish stud Rafael Nadal? Let’s take a look:
Rafa recently moved away from the cutoff shirts because he was clearly having self-esteem issues. The guy is absolutely jacked, but so is Stosur. Pound-for-pound, I’d have to say Stosur wins this one, but Rafa will compete with any set of muscles. Plus, he’ll likely be taking home an even better honor — the title. He’s been rolling.
