I seen lots of photos where sharapova and venus luk the same, but sharapova is listed as 6ft2, so i don't get his listing.

Venus said her height is 6'1- 185cm, Her height is between 184-186 maybe, she might be 186 out of bed and she just says 185 but she is 6'1, 186 is 6'1 1/4.

Venus is 185 at best, 190 Andy Murray had 2 inches on her when I saw them together on a practise curt, Murray walked past her Venus, I think Venus is between a low 184 and a low 186 and she says 185 herself, Murray is 6'3 and was definetely couple inches taller.

haha @ Clay I have to sort of agree with you but I wouldn't say something like that. Mentally though I do agree and it's very masculine.

Who do you think is stronger among the 2 williams sisters? Serena is shorter but thicker than Venus but Im sure they both weigh betwn 170 & 175 lbs
Anonymous says on 5/Nov/09
Athletes grow taller beyond the age of 17, and the profile information about Venus was entered when she was 17, and never changed again. I think she is somewhere between 6'1'' and 6'2'' and possibly 6'2'' but doesn't want people to think she is that tall.
James S says on 20/Oct/09
She is 6'1! She is a tall voluptuous woman. Serena is 5'10 and has always looked about three inches shorter. Both women are tall and there is no doubt about that.

As a scale, I'm 5'11, and I do remember standing next to one of those, life size posters of Venus, and it is about 2 solid inches taller than me.
aarod says on 13/Aug/09
this height seems accurate. i am 6'1.75" before i go to bed, and venus was and inch to an inch.5 shorter than me when i met her at Pangea at the hard Rock

Venus is 6'1" but she is nowhere near 222 lbs. She was only about 170 lbs a year ago but now with her improved physique (her shoulders and arms look almost as huge as serena's) she should be abt 190 lbs. Serena shoul dbe close to 185 lbs too but looks much bigger than Venus cos she is shorter
jf says on 20/Jul/09
I heard one of the Williams' sisters was 6'1", 222 pounds, which is the same size that Bo Jackson was when he played football and baseball. Amazing that she is that large and has such good lateral quickness!
Anonymous says on 17/Jul/09
Rob, she seem s 6 fee 1 inch...are you sure she's this low? Nearly 6 feet 1 min. upgrade lol!
Clay says on 17/Jul/09
With a height like that she's basically a man with breasts.
mon says on 17/Jul/09
Ok, J.J does it really make a diference. I'm 5'11.25 but I say 6 foot, who really cares. Wow, some people are obsessed with height!
J.J. says on 10/Jul/09
Safina is 182cm that's like 5'11.625" not 6'0" but she is close to 6'0"
Anonymous says on 7/Jul/09
Rob, you don't think she's 6 feet 1?
Anonymous says on 6/Jul/09
During the Wimbledon finals between the powerful Williams sisters couldn't help but notice that venus who was always so much thinner than Serena looked almost as bulky as serena. Venus looks to have worked hard on those arms & shoulders which appear bigger and broader than ever on her. At her imposing 6'1" height she now looks even more intimidating with those muscular shoulders & arms. I guess she is closer to about 190 lbs now
Anonymous says on 29/Jun/09
Ana Ivanovic - 5'11" & 165 lbs, Elena dementieva - 5'11" & 160 lbs, Nicole Vaidisova - 5'11" & 160lbs, Dinara Safina - 6'0", 170lbs, Venus Williams - 6'2" & 170lbs & Maria Sharapova - 6'2" & 155lbs. Amongst all these girls the best looking one is Nicole Vaidisova, though her game has just disappeared
J.J. says on 24/Apr/09
Rob please if Venus stood straight she would actually look 6'1.5" next to Glen I think she is a solid 6'1" & 6'1.5" is possible
Random Person says on 24/Apr/09
Hmm I'm gonna say Venus could possibly be 6'1.5
Nicki says on 24/Dec/08
I saw Venus the other day at my local Whole Foods store with a butch type "girlfriend" shopping together and I am certain that Venus is 6'5". She just doesnt want anyone to know because it makes her seem like a freak. If you don't believe me then look at any random pictureon the web and you will see that she is intentionally bending her knees.
RRR says on 4/Sep/08
Yes, Ana Ivanovic is 5´11´´(1.80cm)as Elena Dementieva if you look the pics Safina is taller Ana and Elena and she is 5´1´´1/2 (1.82cm.I don´t know because Ana Ivanovic claim 6´1´´ I think that she want to be as Sharapova.
Rob, Venus Williams is in all sites 6´1´´ not 6´0.5´´ change please!!!

ana ivanovich isnt really 6'1'' shes realy about 5'11''
Josh says on 29/Jul/08
Yeah 6'0.5 (184cm) is right and her sister is 5'9 (176cm).
Bruce says on 12/Jun/08
oh please she is a strong 6'1". i met her playing in wimbledon; she stood beside my cousin(6'1") & they were exactly the same height.
ironmike says on 10/May/08
i agree on everything but ivanovic being 6'1, she just doesn't look like that, she must be 6 foot no more,cuz there are pics with hantuchova,who is 5'11.25(1,81m), side by side and she is just a very little bit taller.
Anonymous says on 5/Dec/07
I always thought of Petrova as 5'11" or 5'10.5" and Ivanovic at 6'.
sam says on 20/Sep/07
Wow, I'm amazed by the "Sharapova Canon" shot in RRR's Flicker photos. Never knew there were that many tall girls around...Sharapova just looks average for that group.
RRR says on 19/Sep/07
Cat look the pics Click Here Sharapova is taller Ivanovic and Venus,, and Venus is taller Ivanovic
Cat says on 7/Sep/07
Ana Ivanovic and Maria Sharapova have the same height around 6 ft 1 (185,5 cm). A. Ivanovic claims herself that she is 6 ft. 1 now. Venus must be around 187 cm.
Anonymous says on 5/Sep/07
Venus defnitely looked taller than Ivanovic by atleast 2". Since Ivanovic is listed at 6 ft Venus must be abt 6'2" and Sharapova 6'3"
Anonymous says on 2/Sep/07
Venus looked taller than Ivanovic during their match today. I mean like easily taller. I think she's 6'1" but has horrible posture.
MCI says on 3/Aug/07
i really didnt know tennis players were that tall, untill I saw her at wimbeldon or how ever u spell that. She was extremely tall and thats why I had to check it out, and Im hearing maria is even taller than her, WOW, im amazed!

I think she's 185, she has HORRIBLE psoture though where as Sharapova has really good posture.

I recall a BBC interview with Venus at her second Wimbledon (with Garry Richardson) whom she dwarfed considerably. I think she had her hair plaited with the Wimbledon corporate colours (of purple and green). So a few years back - with no Serena just yet. That same year there was a locker room post-match interview that the BBC did (I think it was Sue Barker) in which she was asked if she had grown, and she replied that she had and thought she had now stopped. She said she was 6'1" (not sure if she added a half) but she went on to say "6 foot 3 in tennis shoes". I remember this last bit quite clearly as Venus seemed as if she was giving the interviewer what they wanted - ie 6'1 maybe not tall enough for ya, hey well I'm 6 3 with my shoes on. This then is either a bit of bravado on Venus's part - or the WTA do indeed measure barefoot - if they do indeed verify players heights at all (if this siteis anything to go by).

[Editor Rob: see Vincent Spadea quote. The tennis folk don't appear to do measurements and if they do, they should be hung by the rafters.

He is listed for eternity at 6ft on official tennis sites, yet none of them bothered to check what he said - he said 5ft 10.5.

Michael Chang is another. He stated he was 5ft 9...in shoes. Yet the honorable gent got listed 5ft 9 for his career.]
Adam says on 17/Jul/07
Remember that the WTA measure players in shoes and i can imagine that the height Rob made Venus from looking at this picture is more accurate to her barefoot height which is what we are after.I would say from looking at her tennis shoes thay have to be in the region of 3-3.5cm so take that off her 187cm that she says and you are looking at 184cm i would say. Maria would probaly be on the 185-186 mark and Linsays prbably 187-188?
whatsername says on 12/Jul/07
if it said that maria is 9 inches taller than justin, that means she must be around 5'5"...hey 1ft equals to 12inchs dude....remember
ryan says on 11/Jul/07
going by the commentator i think she is 6.1.5
Anonymous says on 11/Jul/07
the commentator on wimbeldon told that she has grow a bit and she was taller than his 185 cm frame
Lika says on 31/Jan/07
You know, I think she is taller - 187 cm, I guess... All the photos I have seen do confirm that!
Alex says on 22/Dec/06
She could be 6'1 maybe. Was she shorter than Maria Sharapova though? She's over 6'0 though. 6'0.5 could be right. Its possible she is 6'0.5 and Serena is 5'9.5 and they just rounded up for their listings.
rick says on 21/Nov/06
For Venus I'd say just under 6'1" ( 6'0.3/4" ), Davenport looks 6'2.5". And for me, Sharapova is around 6'1". I don't trust her official height.
RRR says on 20/Nov/06
rick, about you, which is venus height??? and davenport and sharapova???
