Martina Navratilova believes Serena can break all records.
http://edition.cnn.com/2013/01/18/sport/tennis/tennis-serena-williams-australian-open
How about weeks at #1?
The following people are ahead of her:
Seles 178 weeks
Hingis 209 weeks
Evert 260 weeks
Navratilova 332 weeks
Graf 377 weeks
She is currently at 136 weeks as of (May 13th 2013). If she stays #1 consecutively it will be like this:
200 weeks or longer (as of August 4th 2014)
250 weeks or longer (as of July 20th 2015)
300 weeks or longer (as of July 4th 2016)
350 weeks or longer (as of June 19th 2017)
378 weeks or longer (as of January 1st 2018)
She will be 36 years (and 3,5 months) old in 2018. It's not impossible, but very unlikely..
If Serena maintains her great form and doesn't get injured, do you think she can break Graf's record of weeks at #1? Let's vote now and see if we are right in 2018! Steffi Graf holds the record at 377 weeks.
She plans to reitire after the Olympics in Rio in August 2016, but I believe that if she's still #1 by then and has 300+ weeks that she will continue to play to break Graf's record.
Where will she end up?
