NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Who said winning is everything? For Anna Kournikova, looking good is worth a lot more.

Kournikova, the 22-year-old Russian-born tennis player who has never won a WTA tournament, plans to show a more intimate side by rolling out a new sports bra in the U.S. on Friday.

Online retailer Amazon.com (AMZN: Research, Estimates) will have exclusive U.S. sales rights for the first month for Kournikova's Multiway Sports Bra by Britain's Shock Absorber Inc.

Kournikova, who earns $15 million a year in endorsements, will receive royalties on sales of the products, according to USA Today.

In advertisements, the athlete who's more popular for her looks than her game will model the sports bra with the tagline: "Only the ball should bounce," the newspaper said.

I just checked for like 10 minutes and I dont think she is wearing underwear!

She is soooo average looking it's not even funny.
Why do guys make a big deal about her?
I don't even find her attractive, and she's a terrible athlete.

Uhm, I dont think I would call her a terrible athlete. She might not be the best women's tennis player, but she is defintely one of the top 20 in the world.

She has a great body and she is good looking. To each their own!

Hmm... let's see...

I'm afraid you're wrong, how I wish you weren't but she's definately got her knickers on. White ones with black elastic.

I'm not a pervert. OK, I am a pervert.
