Yes, she is! You are off to a grand start!  Then I'll say the next 2 in order are... Kuznetsova and Myskina! |

I was thinking Anna K would be up there as well.

I assumed she was only including active players.

Yeah, Likh wouldn't have crossed my mind. I would have gone Anna K, Myskina, ED.
That's why you're the Sage!

I would have though Lik was ahead of Demented, simply because of much more doubles results, and Demented doesn't have many big singles results.

I would have though Lik was ahead of Demented, simply because of much more doubles results, and Demented doesn't have many big singles results. A couple of Slam finals will do that for you. Also, ED had some good doubles results in Slams for a while there, too, which helped her out. As for Anna K, she was eligible for the contest, because it's about Career Earnings, not about who's playing now. She simply didn't make the cut, despite Hingis' best efforts to lift her up there. Anna K. is currently 6th on the Russian career earnings list. Shockingly, even Dokic has earned more than Anna did on the court, and that really is hard to fathom ... but off-topic, since JD's not a Russian. |

Except for Bovina, who let Justine slip away when she CHEATED against Lindsay at AO. Let's all give her a HAND. And then we get random suck partners for the next 2 years... but, it's not like it matters because we plan these "injuries" every other week just so we can screw around with random Russian studs.

Why do you refer to Giant Barbie as "we"?  |

Oh, of course! Who doesn't? I'm unique. Most obsessed fans say "we" for their favorite players. I'm the exact opposite. |
