Romanian Tennis Star, Simona Halep has revealed that she has got her boob reduction operation to thank for her drastic improvement in her rankings for women's World Tennis.
Simona had found her rise faltering, as her breasts caused her discomfort as slowed down her game. However, since she opted for surgery to reduce the size of her breasts, she has risen 450 places.
No doubt many of her male fans will be disappointed by the results of her surgery; petitions had even been started to persuade her not to go through with it.
However, it does appear have been worth it.
Now at #57, Simona looks likely to be ranked in the World's Top 50 when the next rankings are released.
19 year old Simona has said that even if she was not a professional tennis player, would probably still have got the breast reduction surgery, as she found her large breasts uncomfortable and an annoyance in everyday life.

Taiwan Urges Changes to Chinese Tourist Sector Policies
It seems that Taiwan is starting to really push itself as a viable Medical Tourism destination for China. Already experiencing some success, with many people traveling for cheap cosmetic surgery abroad, reducing or lifting the restrictions for Chinese visitors could benefit Taiwan in a really big way!
The potential spending power of the people of China could have a massive impact for Taiwan, where it is already estimated that they have spent over US$6 Billion in the last three years.
At present, there are restrictions in place to prevent more than 500 Chinese nationals visiting Taiwan, without belonging to a tour group, and these are permitted to stay for a maximum of 15 days. These restrictions make it virtually impossible for Taiwan to compete as a Medical Tourism Destination on a global level.
If Taiwan is successful in its bid, we could witness a huge sea-change, with Taiwan's economy benefiting enormously, both from Medical Tourism and in the tourism sector generally.
It will be interesting to see how (and if!) China responds to this bid. Watch this space...
