WRONG! She is ranked #60 :p

Her year wasn't that bad ;) :rolleyes:

She complied 1057 of her 1088 points between January (Brisbane) and April (Rome).

....and then 31/1088 pts between May (Madrid) and October (Beijing) :bigcry:

Oh, ok. My bad.:lol: :o I thought I read from some thread she was ranked like 200 plus.:tape: :p
Maybe it was someone else.:angel:

intresting that alot of these players are not the classic hard and harder hitters.
most of them have a unique element to thier game.

Pretty surprising to see Kleybanova and Peng without a singles title. Neither tend to play down, though, because surely they'd have a title by now. Kleybanova really blew an easy opportunity for her to win Moscow.

I can't believe Rezai just won her 1st title this year, she has been in this tour for like..4 years?
