I got Capriati if her shoulder is good, but if not, Serena to 2peat.

I believe that the gap between the competition of women's tennis has closed. Four or five years ago, it was all about Venus and Serena. Now the women have gotten a lot more stronger and in better shape.

So now-a-days, i never look at Venus and Serena as a lock to win anything.

Actually Women's tennis draws better ratings than men's nowadays. Its because people did wanna see the sisters.


Some of them see only the first round because Anna does not get past it.

I love watching women's tennis more b/c they seem to rely more on skill then power, plus they're the sexiest athletes on earth.

Venus is not sexy. Serena.... would ya'? I would, for sure.

I love Womens tennis because the Americans do well. I am missing the grunting of Seles.

Hingis needs to make a comeback.

Kournikova..... ahhhhhhhhhh..... need I say more?

The Pete Sampras vs Agassi US Open was a classic. I heard it had the best ratings since a long time. You are absolutely right.

I used to thoroughly enjoy watching all these players below:

a). Boris Becker - I have not seen Bjon Borg (i am not sure if I spelt this right) and thus my #1 player is Becker.
b). John Mc Enroe- Not only the game he used to play but the drama on the court.
c). Edberg & Pete Sampras - Had some great games with Becker. Most of them were classic.
d). Ivan Lendl & Agassi - I may be the only one who thinks this, probably.
e). Jim Courier and Jimmy Connors - Here's a tie.

Other players whom I like but will not make this list : Ivanisevic, Mats Wilander.

MFF, I was watching "I love the 80s" on VH1. John McEnroe should have kept his mullet, and since Dirk admires him so much, maybe he'd have one too.

Serena Wins it but there were some tense moments when Venus had to take a medical timeout.
