Definitely Wimbledon. The tennis she displayed on grass was breath-taking. Beating players like relevant Dokic, relevant Hantuchova, Peak Sugiyama, Peak Davenport and Serena Williams on grass = . None of her other GS title runs really stand up to this batch of wins IMO. Altho the fact she beat Henin twice in two of her GS victories is also very impressive.

She didn't beat Dokic at Wimbledon 2004. She beat her the year before (2003)

Haha I always confuse the Dokic win with 2004 for some reason. Thanks for correcting.

Australian Open for sure. It wasn't just Peakpova in terms of her game, it was absolute Peakpova mentally - she just had a glint in her eye which let you know there was no way she was leaving the tournament without the trophy. As Virginia Wade said immediately after that final, "the most impressive Grand Slam run from anyone since Steffi Graf"

I might have to change my answer to the AO after re-watching her QF versus Henin. Other than reasons already stated, this tournament also displayed Peak Swaggerpova. I love the way she bitch stomped all over the court. She was out for blood the entire event

Definitely AO 2008. UnbeatablePova.

The Australian Open because of the exceptional form she showed.
Roland Garros because it's almost like a fairy-tale how she won them all in order, and the story of fight and endless determination that's behind it; completing the career Slam, first tennis player to win a Slam after shoulder surgery, first Russian to hold all four, she got back to number one etc, etc.

Can you read my mind? That was exactly what I was thinking
I'm voting for wimbledon because that was the first time I saw her and she played so well in the final. What a fearless 17 year old she was. But every slam is very special. Now complete this collection with olympic medal

Thats how i feel. The way she powered through that tournament i will never forget. Roland Garros 2012 was pretty special too.

Totally agree. There was 0% doubt in my head she was going to win. Her strut around the court had such a confident aura to it, very different from the pova we see today.

Personally it's her AO '08 run because she was just so dominant! I want her to play in such form again! I wonder what will be the outcome if she would've faced Serena (instead of Jelena) in her form then...
