I've come to accept this, but what I cannot accept is the fact that she has not aged one bit. Clearly she was using a better raquet.
then
now (three kids later no less)
Race car driver Danica Patrick. Now I can assure you that I drive a lot. I mean, constantly. I look nothing like this in a swim suit. Something to aspire to I suppose.
