Wow, she plays a whopping 5-6 hours in the SAME week to prepare for a tournament! That is dedication!
Look, I have nothing against her, and I think she is good for the image of pool, but she is no champion. I do not agree with the commercial that clearly identifies her as a billiard champion. Don't you actually have to win something to be called a champion?
I hope nothing but the best for her and her career, but she is a pool spokesmodel. Has she EVER even finished in the money at a pro event?
We all know that it is a fact of life that she will get attention because of her looks. I just think it is disrespectful to the other players who actually earned their place. This kind of thing always happens. A better looking player is more marketable and image is huge. They will get more and better opportunities. That is fine, just don't call her a champion.
Jeanette Lee got a lot of attention because of her image when she was coming up, and she got many opportunities because of her appearance. I know there were some who prob had resented this. The main dfference is that Jeanette IS a champion. She CAN play and WIN! She has earned many titles not based on her looks.
I actually posted this in the other thread, but it is more on topic here.
