WHO ARE YOUR Favourites ?
How did I miss, Leander Paes, Mahesh Bhupathi, Amirtaraj's & Krishnans and the now Sania Mirza
.... Prasad thanks for reminding me.
Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi ...They were not the greatest artistes of the game or players but they are from India and fought odds of mammoth proportions..
We have a tradition of cricket which has lots of money in it and many legends to follow in their footsteps and coaching facilities,,
Barring Krisnans and Paramjit lal we had scant tennis..not much money ..The physical fitness and skills , training and calibre were supposed to be out of reach and 'unthinkable' for Indians till these two came along.. they had no fan following ...NO PROPERE FACILITIES..GODFATHERS AND NO WORLD CLASS COACHES..THE ENCOURAGEMENT COMPARED TO CRICKET IS NEXT TO NOTHING..HOCKEY WINNERS RECENTLY HAD TO FIGHT FOR THE HONOUR DUE TO THEM !!
NOT MANY EVEN NOW KNOW THAT THEY TOPPED THE WORLD DOUBLES RANKING LISTS FOR MANY, MANY WEEKS......AND WON MANY GRANDSLAM DOUBLES..
I HOLD THEM AS ICONS FOR THEIR''GRIT..FIGHT AGAINST ODDS ..DETERMINATION AGAINST STRONGER MORE TRAINED AND SKILLED OPPONENTS AND THEIR TREMENDOUS ACHEIVEMENTS .......
And VILMA RUDOLPH....Ablack.... 8th among malnourished black children of a poor family...no formal education...or training...and POLIO STRICKEN IN ONE LEG...'''AND OLYMPIC GOLDMEDALIST ''', ''TWICE'' !!!! IN MIDDLE DISTANCE RUNNING IN 60S ....A ROLE MODEL TO BE QOUTED TO ALL CHILDREN ......
I am a fan of many more players of many more disciplines but these and similar are ICONS in their true sense..sportsmen to be emulated...

Mike Becker Testimonial
Kathryn Martin Dominates on the Track at the 2008 Usatf National Masters Meet
Copyright © 2008 Ed Bagley
The shining star in the prime running events at the 2008 USATF National Masters Meet in Spokane (WA) was Kathryn (Kathy) Martin, who won 5 national titles in the 800, 1500, 5000 and 10,000-meter races, and set an American record in the 2000-meter steeplechase. The 56-year-old from Northport (NY) was virtually unstoppable in the 55-59 age-group competition.
The United States Track & Field-sanctioned meet was held Aug. 7-10 at the Spokane Falls Community College track, one of the finestif not the finestdedicated track venues among community colleges in the nation. Most tracks are built around a more popular sporting venue, such as football. At Spokane Falls Community College it is clear that track and field competition is a prime concern.
Kathy Martin won the 5 titles in 4 days battling 90-degree-plus temperatures at Spokane's 2,000-plus-foot elevation with dry heat and no humidity.
Her closest race was the 800 which she won in 2:38.56 with runner-up Coreen Steinbach of Pompey (NY) less than a second behind. Martin's biggest margin of victory came in the 5000, which she won in 19:09.20, nearly 2 minutes ahead of her nearest competitor.
Martin's two signature racesthe 1500 and 10,000left little doubt about who was in charge on the track. She won the 10,000 in 41:13.60, slower than her American age-group record of 39:37.78 set last year. She also holds the current national record of 37:12.23 set in 2004 in the 50-54 age-group.
Martin, who resembles a very fast perpetual motion machine, ran away from her competition in the 1500, winning in 5:13.49 by more than 12+ seconds and with a time less than a second slower than her current American record of 5:12.62 set last year. She also holds the current national record of 4:52.55 set in 2002 in the 50-54 age-group.
The icing on her 5-layer cake came in her apparent first-time try at the 2000-meter steeplechase as she set a national record in 8:23.20, demolishing Marie Michelsohn's 7-year-old mark of 8:37.7 set in 2001. Kathy Martin is an inspiring running machine who continues to rank as one of America's top middle-distance runners in masters competition.
Three other competitors, including two American-record holders, were double winners in the prime running events at the meet.
Stephen Robbins of Seattle won the 65-69 age-group 100 in 12.56 and set a new American record in the 200 in 25.36, breaking Paul Johnson's mark of 25.76 set in 2001. Robbins set the current 100 American record (pending) of 12.37 earlier in August.
Nolan Shaheed of Pasadena, CA (55-59) won the 1500 in 4:44.38 and the 5000 in 17:00.60. Shaheed holds the same age-group American record of 4:20.76 set in 2004. Nolan Shaheed also holds the world masters record of 4:27.9 in the mile for the 50-54 age-group, which he set in 2000.
Don Coffman of Stamping Ground, KY (65-69) was the third double-winner, taking the 5000 in 19:10.26 and the 10,000 in 39:16.00, a full 6+ minutes faster than his nearest competitor.
Other notable age-group performances included:
Aaron Thigpen of Brentwood, CA (40-44) with a 11.00 in the 100. Renee Henderson of Merchantville, NJ (40-44) with a 12.31 in the 100. Lonnie Hooker of Upper Marlboro, MD (45-49) with a 22.58 in the 200. Jai Black of San Diego, CA (45-49) with a 1:02.15 in the 400. Courtney Muhammad of Mesa, AZ (45-49) with a 51.41 in the 400. Neil Fitzgerald of New York, NY (40-44) with a 1:59.51 in the 800.
James Morton of Springfield, MA (50-54) with a 2:04.89 in the 800. Lisa Valle of Albuquerque, NM (40-44) with a 2:20.35 in the 800. Jim Selby of Fallbrook, CA (80-84) with a 3:19.10 in the 800. Kevin Forde of Philadelphia, PA (40-44) with a 4:10.78 in the 1500. Christine Olen of Boise, ID (40-44) with a 4:53.50 in the 1500. Mike Stickley of Winchester, VA (45-49) with a 16:10.70 in the 5000. Susan Empey of Mercer Island, WA (40-44) with an 18:17.47 in the 5000.
Richard Becker of Selah, WA (50-54) with a 34:22.94 in the 10,000. Alyssa Tower of Vancouver, WA (45-49) with a 38:21.83 in the 10,000. Karen Steen of Olympia, WA (40-44) with a 7:24.59 in the 2000 steeplechase. Ronald Pate of Honolulu, HI (60-64) with an 8:44.84 in the 2000 steeplechase. Essie Faria of Miami, FL (70-74) with a 14:37.24 in the 2000 steeplechase. Kevin Stover of York, PA (40-44) with a 10:45.96 in the 3000 steeplechase.
