and when you factor the manner in which she beat serena at wimbledon 04 (ailing player fresh off a year long hiatus) it really tells you just how flukey that win was..Glad to see serena show these kids how its done but the forecast doesnt look too good for the WTA.Sharpova is just not a competitor and azeranka/wazniaki and co are all a wash that sort of blend into this mix of inconsistent/mediocre players..8 years. 8 years without beating Serena again
I don't think it's early enough to say that about Azeranka just yet. Yeah she lost to Serena at the US Open, but not many people would have beat Serena on their best day. If she can string together another quality season whether that be winning or just meeting the finals for some of the big name events, I think it would be air to say she is legit. Sharapova was just all hype. I don't think she has any chance of getting better at this point. Wazniakia will NEVER be a top contender. Not while Serena is around and probably not even when she retiresand when you factor the manner in which she beat serena at wimbledon 04 (ailing player fresh off a year long hiatus) it really tells you just how flukey that win was..Glad to see serena show these kids how its done but the forecast doesnt look too good for the WTA.Sharpova is just not a competitor and azeranka/wazniaki and co are all a wash that sort of blend into this mix of inconsistent/mediocre players..
Anyway you slice it once serena retires the best player on tour is going to be the person that "sucks" the least.And thats not a good look
Its not really the usopen defeat or her performances against serena i am talking about. Its stuff like yesterday where she loses to ppl she should beat like sharpova..The way she was handed a trophy and no 1 status after losing back to back (to the finalists) just reminded me a lot of the myskina yearsI don't think it's early enough to say that about Azeranka just yet.

good post. i have to say of all the top players only azarenka is worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as serena (not that she is close to #1 though)I don't think it's early enough to say that about Azeranka just yet.

I just tuned in and it looks like Joker and the umpire have been arguing the entire time? Anyone know why?
