Sports Illustrated 2016 Swimsuit issue: Caroline Wozniacki vs Ronda Rousey...

Tennis player Caroline Wozniacki and mixed martial arts star Ronda Rousey are two beautiful women in sport.

However, they are two, with tremendous potential, who have done little over the past one year to justify the faith of their ardent followers.

Then, again, their ardent following might have little to do with their on-court, in-ring skill sets and much to do with their ability to take their clothes off, paint a swim suit on and pose for Sports Illustrated 2016 Swimsuit issue.

While Rousey’s dramatic MMA knockout by Holly Holmes has done little to dull her star burst, Wozniacki, post her dramatic separation from golfer boy-friend, Rory McIllroy, has yet to hit any form on the tennis court.

On Feb 10 Caroline Wozniacki was knocked out of the St. Petersburg Ladies Trophy in Russia by Dominika Cibulkova, 6-4, 7-5. On Feb 15 she was at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.

They may not dazzle in sport, but as their social media feeds and bikini pictures suggest, they do dazzle in front of the camera.
