PDA How do you rate active players achievements in comparison to the greats?? Lilowannabe Sep 26th, 2008, 07:28 PM I think this will be an interesting topic, with the state of womens tennis atm. I was wondering where you would place some of the great active players in the list of all time greats. Of course graf, navratilova and evert have the best stats, but i find it interesting where people rank the likes of Dementieva, Mauresmo and Clijsters who have had most of their success outside the slams. Heres my rank- Steffi Graf Martina Navratilova Chris Evert Serena Williams Monica Seles Justine Henin Venus Williams Lindsay Davenport Martina Hingis Jennifer Capriati Arantxa Sanchez Vicario Maria Sharapova Amelie Mauresmo Kim Clijsters Mary Pierce Gabriela Sabatini Tracy Austin Conchita Martinez Svetlana Kuznetsova Elena Dementieva Dodoboy. Sep 26th, 2008, 07:30 PM I like that list everything is accurate at first look :) Olórin Sep 26th, 2008, 07:31 PM Lists are boring, subjective and pointless imo. :shrug: I really don't like the idea of ranking the greats of tennis. It just can't be done justice imo.

Give her another Wimbledon, and it's hard to believe someone wouldn't be a great with six. MrSerenaWilliams Sep 26th, 2008, 11:39 PM Give her another Wimbledon, and it's hard to believe someone wouldn't be a great with six. she's already a great with 5, but I was referring to top 10.
