The Agency for sports news "F-Sport" have made a list of the best female athletes in Russia:
http://www.allresults.ru/novosti/isinbae…rtsmenok-rossii
Gamova in 5th place, Sokolova in 14th place and Kosheleva in 19th place. As u also can see, the winner is pole vault world record-holder Yelena Isinbaeva and second the biathlete Olga Zaitseva. Maria Sharapova 3rd and Vera Zvonareva 10th place. Best basketball-player Ilona Korstin at 9th place. The worlds best high jumper Anna Chicherova in 13th place.
Any thoughts of the list ?
Anton, the link doesn't work.
For me - Zaitseva - out of the top10 (biathletes nowdays like football players in Russia - they don't win anything but still get all the money and media attention), Korstin is pretty average basket player, Masha Stepanova should be in top-10 instead of her.
Top-5 for me (without precise places): Iinbayeva(doesn't win anything for years, but still a major star), Anna Chicherova (became World champion and won all the competitions less then a year after giving birth), Gamova, Sharapova, Olga Kaniskina (walker, wins all the majors for many years).
Sokolova - top 10 (not in the top-5 because she plays in Turkey and we don't really see her all year)

Strange, it was the right link before !
I agree with most of what u say. I think Gamova is top5 for sure, but Sokolova in top10 I doubt, I think her level has decreased much the last 2 yrs
Kosheleva is potential top10 for me, if she can play well in OG. I also dont understand the number of Chicherova, she should be better IMO. She is 13place and Masha Kirilenko 15 and Kuznetsova 11, a joke in my opinion ! Just because they are tennisplayers hehe

After watching the playoffs in Russia I think Makhno deserves to be in NT more than Estes. She was quite bad in the last few matches.
I think you´re right, but looking at the stats of the whole season, you´re very wrong hehehe...Estes has much better stats in both attack and receive this season, but I belive Makhno is a more dangerous weapon against better teams anyway.

The problem is that the stats of the whole season are worth nothing when right now Makhno is in better shape, the tournament is in 2 weeks and I don't think Estes can get her best shape back in such a short time...maybe she'll be ready for Olympics, but right now I'd choose Makhno.After watching the playoffs in Russia I think Makhno deserves to be in NT more than Estes.

Agree, none of them is really a great setter but I think Babeshina is the "least bad" among them. About Morozova, it was obvious that she had problems with her right shoulder towards the end of the season, she was even serving with left hand, but there would be time to recover after Ankara tournament, she's the best blocker of Russia.i prefer babeshina in the olympic team than akulova or matienko.

No Matienko
I would even call Zhadan in stead of her. Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, and inwardly are ravening wolves.
She is better than Merkulova and Perepelkina.... but whatever
