What’s your opinion on “if the best American athletes played tennis”?
Post Body

You often see this argument whenever the USA isn’t a world power in a particular sport:

It’s because our best athletes choose to play other sports

It’s most often when referring to America’s lack of success in soccer/football but also increasingly in men’s tennis. I’ve even seen some people claim MLB players would dominate professional cricket, but I digress.

What do you think? Is there truth to that claim? (Specifically with men’s tennis)

Comments

I think it's pretty clear thatva disproportionatel amount of the world's best athletes come from the US
