US OPEN TENNIS MADE IN BELGIUM

[erik.van.geit]

Do you know how many people are living in Belgium ?
About 10.000.000
Do you know how many there are in the US ?
I don't
other countries ?

What I know is that statistically it's impossible to get someone from Belgium win the US Open.
Why did Kim Clijsters win the US Open then ?

Or did my Excel blow up doing these calculations ?

Nevermind !

Hehe. Shouldn't we be counting tennis players in each country rather than the total population?

 

[Oaktree]

Well, by that logic, given the number of people in the world NOT named "Tiger Woods", it is statistically impossible for a person named "Tiger Woods" to ever win a golf tournament.

Long live Eddy Merckx!
