Now that Serena, Venus, Lindsay, etc. have falled outside the top level of ranking, there are so many dangerous floaters around that Aussie Open '07 could be the wildest ever. For example, if Mauresmo, Justine, and Sharapova keep the 1-2-3 ranking and Hingis doesn't make top 8 by mid-January, it's possible that Mauresmo as the #1 seed could face this draw:
1st rd. -- Serena Williams (WC)
2nd rd. -- Venus Williams (50)
3rd rd. -- Lindsay Davenport (25)
4th rd. -- Martina Hingis (10)
QF -- Kim Clijsters (8)
SF -- Maria Sharapova (3)
F -- Justine Henin-Hardenne (2)
That would be the current #1 facing seven former #1s with a combined 28 grand slam wins.
