Tragedy my friends has struck the world of women’s professional tennis.
No, Billie Jean King’s gender re-assignment plan is still full steam ahead. But I regret to inform you of some very, very tragic news emanating out of Romania.
The lovely Simona Halep, who recently busted out as an Internet phenomenon thanks to an SbB post a few weeks ago, told a Romanian sports website recently that she is going to have breast reduction surgery later this year.
PROSPORT.RO broke the story earlier this month, which not coincidentally came after we posted nearly year-old photos of her that soon swept around the world. (Google her if you’re wondering.)
Here’s the funky translation of Halep’s comments from the Romanian site:
“I do not believe that physical appearance has an effect on performance, so I help with anything in the sport. My mind bust when for me to go and even if the land would not be sporting, I would have felt very good.
“Inconvenience me, it’s very hard with them. It’s a weight in addition to confound me speed response. I can not go on very well. Shoot me down. Nothing in life is not like me even though sport was not all I was doing surgery, revealing Halep. Surgical intervention should take place last year, but probably will use it in autumn, because the postponement might cause problems in the column.”
A big boob intervention? Sounds like what I just flipped past on the Hampton Inn PPV.
Given Halep’s current age of 17, there’s a decent chance that her breasts would grow even larger than they already are. (Along with women’s tennis TV ratings.) So some of you out there probably think she made the right decision.
But since you’re *reading* SbB … yeah, who am I kidding.
To help you get over the trauma of Halep’s decision, here’s some of the riper comments from the ProSports.ro story:

keep your girl breasts. nu renunta la ceva ce alte femei jinduiesc. not give up something that other women jinduiesc. tennis career is short xxx movies but can be lasting.
Let’s just hope Lindsay Davenport doesn’t take that advice.

Damn….
7:37 am on May 22nd, 2009
A blasphemy against god. Simply stunning and tragic news.
That surgery should be banned as a crime against nature.
8:06 am on May 22nd, 2009
Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!
this day will live in infamy.
9:37 am on May 22nd, 2009
How do I get my money back for the tournament tickets that I bought in anticipation of her appearance?
9:39 am on May 22nd, 2009
So sad.
9:40 am on May 22nd, 2009
It will be a crime against nature!!! Let's start a fund for the creation of an uber-bra that will let her play to her potential—but not ruin one inch/ounce of that divine figure!!!
9:48 am on May 22nd, 2009
I knew it was to good to be true, If you check my earlier posts on her pics I predicted the fate of those lovely yabbos. For the sake of her sport. I think as well as a ban on performance enhancing drugs they should have a ban on "performance enhancing surgeries"
10:33 am on May 22nd, 2009
As super bad said.. it’s like slapping god in the face
10:51 am on May 22nd, 2009
Bummer….. and angular momentum being what it is, I bet her back-hand speed drops dramatically. Brooks, perhaps this is your opportunity to do an update on the /girls page and document thoroughly for posterity……
11:29 am on May 22nd, 2009
Like another poster, I could see this coming. Who can blame her but her loss is ours as well…*sob*
11:32 am on May 22nd, 2009
leave your sexy t*ts the way they are
12:03 pm on May 22nd, 2009
whoever does this surgery should lose their license. CRIMINAL!!!!
12:05 pm on May 22nd, 2009
Maybe she will at least bless us with one bikini photo shoot before… you know…
1:29 pm on May 22nd, 2009
Sorry, but this is a bad idea. Trust me.
2:02 pm on May 22nd, 2009
No No No!!!! This is worse than the Titanic sinking when the Hindenburg crashed into it. Oh the humanity….
2:28 pm on May 22nd, 2009
Those things seem almost anti-gravitational in the pics. They're amazing!
4:04 pm on May 22nd, 2009
You gotta love the author's classic word choice as well…"The lovely Simona Halep, who recently busted out as an Internet phenomenon"

Breast reduction surgery, That is gonna cost a couple of big ones…
8:57 pm on May 22nd, 2009
Damn Brooks. Way to screw up a Memorial Day weekend. Horrible and tragic news. Imagine how the IBTC girls must feel about this news. Hopefully somebody will talk some sense into this young woman before she makes this drastic mistake.
12:44 am on May 23rd, 2009
How freaking stupid is this girl? The one thing she has going for her and she's going to throw it away.
4:01 am on May 23rd, 2009
Wow, this is really a shame.. Others pay big bucks to get somewhere near this shape, and those gifted by nature don't want to accept the gift.
As another commenter mentioned: performance enhancing surgery should be banned like doping. Suspension until restoration …
Anyway I assume this surgery will backfire and end her professional tennis career. So let's hope for her she makes up her minds or has other talents (besides the existing three, including tennis).
(and generally breast reduction to anything less than a G-cup should be forbidden… ;o)
7:40 pm on May 23rd, 2009
FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
7:58 pm on May 23rd, 2009
As much as I hate to see them go, let's face it - you could take away a whole cup size and still be left with some FREAKIN' AMAZING TATS!!!!
10:47 pm on May 23rd, 2009
can she just put them in a jar somewhere and when she realizes shes not going to be a star yennis player put them back in, just a thought
11:03 pm on May 23rd, 2009
My mind bust too.
1:12 am on May 24th, 2009
Gravatar just officialy lost some man points.

HawkeyeHater, that is.
9:21 am on May 24th, 2009
Read the post again, RayJ - luckily I could lose thousands of man points and still be ahead of you…
11:17 am on May 24th, 2009
Hey Brooks, are you still obsessing over this 17 year old? Grow up.
You're a pedophile. Just admit it and everything will be O.K.
Oh wait. I forgot. It's only pedophilia if you from the U.S.A.
You must be from Sweden Brooks.
T*ts are t*ts right Brooks. It doesn't matter how old they are.
And what's going on litigation wise with your models?
Do you even read the comments Brooks? Or are you just a partition?
11:22 am on May 24th, 2009
Hey Brooks, my email address is as follows if you or any spineless or -full peoples want to contact me: RSCampbellJr@gmail.com
That is real and don't worry nothing can be gleaned from it. Retired intelligence.
5:45 pm on May 24th, 2009
In Brooks' defense a pedophile is someone infatuated with prepubescent children - this broad is old enough to marry in all 50 US states and is otherwise legal in many others - just saying…
8:23 pm on May 24th, 2009
Rob68's intelligence retired long ago.
This news story really is a travesty.
8:23 pm on May 24th, 2009
She will be to tennis as Soleil Moon Frye was to acting.
She will go further in life if she keeps them.
12:33 pm on May 25th, 2009
Well it is perfectly up to her. I have played tennis and can see some inconvenience . But once you are a pro it is not that bad, after all most touring pros, women, don't stay past their 30's. So from 30 to however long she lives she will, have reduced breast. She may only go a cup smaller which is still attractive for her. large breast,playing tennis are a good combo….imagine the strain on her back. they will get bigger or gain more fatty tissue as she ages so why not.?
8:06 pm on May 25th, 2009
its a sad day, not just for tennis,but for the world.
8:18 pm on May 25th, 2009
that is like slapping god in the face for a wonderful gift
6:06 pm on May 26th, 2009
For anyone who has known women who have had breast reductions, it's a pretty ugly procedure. The results aren't pretty, regardless of how many cup sizes down a woman goes.
Shame. Oh well. I guess there are more important things in life.
OK, not really.
2:54 am on May 27th, 2009
Well, I really hope she finds herself a better surgeon than Jelena Dokic did for her breast reduction.
1:07 pm on May 30th, 2009
"Well it is perfectly up to her. I have played tennis and can see some inconvenience ."
Why, you got big boobs too, Justin?
5:04 am on May 31st, 2009
She should get a second opinion before going through with any reduction. However, I don't mean a medical second opinion. Instead, Simona should try to talk to another fairly large chested tennis player, namely Serena Williams. Simona may be larger than Serena, but it's not by that much. Serena has shown that big boobs won't stop a great tennis player from succeeding.
Also, Simona should keep them because she can make some serious cash. It's unlikely that she'll be a multiple Grand Slam winner. Most of the great female tennis players were contending for major tournament titles and ranked within the top 50 at the age of 17. I know many have given Anna Kournikova a hard time for just capitalizing off of her looks, but if you've got it, why not cash in on your assets.
7:43 pm on June 1st, 2009
She should find a new trainer who will help her take an advantage out of her breast size by using the extra weight for buoyancy thus creating a special and incredibly strong shot.
PR guys can call this shot "The Boob Cannon" later.
3:02 am on June 2nd, 2009
serena plays well. I dont think it is a problem
1:28 pm on June 2nd, 2009
I'd love to see a doubles match between Simona's and Tamira Paszek's. Imagine the TV ratings if Simona, Tamira, and fellow D-cup dolls Sania Mirza and Lesley Kerkhove were in the WTA's Top Five……sigh….
1:54 am on June 7th, 2009
i'm more upset about the billie jean king reassignment
10:07 pm on June 8th, 2009
Simona, i know you think it is necessary to reduce them to gain extra speed, but trust me it won't make an ounce of difference. I had a friend that got a breast reduction just last year for the same reason and there was no difference at all. So for the sake of us all PLEASE PLEASE don't do it.
12:26 pm on June 14th, 2009
Check out shock jocks "Opie and Anthony". They created a website with a petition to stop her breast reduction. Check out "savethetitmonster.com"

"There's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. T'would be a pity to damage yours."
