Why compare BG with tennis?

Can ANYONE enter Wimbledon and win? Yet any BG player could win a major tournament given the right dice. Obviously the better the player, the less theoretical that is.

If we are going to make a comparison between seeding BG and seeding other tournaments, then that should be poker, which involves both skill and luck, not tennis.

I don't even see why we need to make such comparisons, but if we do then let's use a proper one.
