Anna Chakvetadze has recently become engaged in politics and she’s already been voted the sexiest woman in the field. On top of that, we’re receiving good news regarding her tennis career – the 24-year-old will play the Moorilla Hobart International tournament in January 2012.
Russian internet users were asked to vote for a Russian politician they find the sexiest and Chakvetadze took the honor, beating some all-time favorites on the way.
When news of Chakvetadze’s political engagement surfaced in September it made us question her further interest in tennis, as she already hadn’t played much during the 2011 season due to health problems. However, Chakvetadze is returning to tennis in a month, at the Hobart tournament she won in 2007, the brightest year of her career, when she reached her career-high ranking of No.5 and won four WTA titles.
In the entire 2011 the Russian played just 14 matches and won only six of them. She’s currently No.231.
Additional info: On December 4 there were State Duma elections and Chakvetadze’s Right Cause Party did not cross the 5% election threshold for a seat in the Parliament. (photo: Ralf Reinecke)
