Surprising/unexpected slam winners like Fran. You can't pick the hyped youngsters (Keys, Vekic, Robson etc) since many expect them to win slams in the future. Pick 5 players only (because I don't want to see someone picking the whole top 100).:lol:
Any surprise slam winner in the next 5 years is probably already top 30 (or has been top 30)
It's more likely to be solid players like Makarova, Jankovic, Zheng, Kanepi or Pavlyuchenkova.
Who finally deliver on good games and do a Schiavone.
Would people really be that surprised if Kuznetsova nabbed another slam? I feel like she's due for a third one sometime in the next year.
-Suarez-Navarro
-Kirilenko
-Pironkova
-Lucic (wishful thinking, I know, but it would be a nice story)
-Hantuchova
I can easily see one of the four (I'm excluding Mirjana because she would need a miracle, but I'm considering this more of a wish-list) having a really good 2 weeks mixed with a forgiving draw and winning a GS. Then again, all of my picks have been to the second week of a slam before so I'm playing it a little safe.
