First off, I think that the key to what makes Stokke so intriguing is the fact that she is extremely talented at her sport. In my own experience, most sports fans including me, prefer Maria Sharapova to Anna Kournikova. Yes, both are attractive, but Sharapova is actually really good at what she does. Not like Kournikova, who couldn`t win a tournament if you handed it to her on a silver platter. That's why Sharapova matters.
