Spanish tennis ace says people find it difficult to accept a female athlete who is both glamorous and competitive


Garbine Muguruza
World No. 3 tennis player Garbine Muguruza, 24, who is the current Wimbledon champion, says it's a myth that a female athlete cannot be a fighter and feminine at the same time. "It's a delicate thing because for some people, it's very hard to allow an athlete to be feminine. You can be feminine and you can say, 'I really want to beat her.' But I don't want to look like a little monster in the corner. Words like feminine and fighter can go together," Muguruza told British website TheGuardian.com.
