Kim and Justine......no TIER 1 titles???
Well, just to mention.......
Kim and Justine....
They have never won any TIER 1 tournaments!
I just kind of getting bored hearing news about ANNA K. with no titles.....
Kim and Justine are both in TOP 10 but they have never won any tier 1 tournements....
Especially Justine......all her singles titles are not even TIER 2's !!!
OH......Anna....you'd better play TIER 3 events then!!

Maybe they never won Tier 1 titles but last year, they both did a Grand Slam Final, and Kim did a Tier I final while Justine retired due tu injury in a Tier I SF...

There is a huge gap between.....the RUNNER UP and the Champion of the Grand slam events!!
Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario said....nobody remembers who is the runner up! They (the audiences) only know the Champion. She said this because she always be the RUNNER UP! 
I'm not attacking Kim and Justine.....but I just want to mention!!
SORRY GUYSSS....it's the fact!!

Actually, I don't understand what your point is...
do you want all the Kim & Juju fans against you?
What do you want to say? That Kournikova is better than the Belgian girls? So what?

Of course, The Net, you are correct... but I'm not exactly sure what the point you're making is?
If the point is that Daniela did a very special thing last night, then you're absolutely right! 
But some of the things that Kim and Justine have done are special too! If you're saying that either or both Kim and Justine are over-hyped because they've gotten to a GS final but not won a Tier I event, then maybe you could try turning that particular statment around... and see what happens!

The net, it's obvious you dont rate Justine and Kim to highly, as you think they will fall out of the top players before any other for Daniela to get in.
Check the other thread hey.
hehehe

Excuse me but nobody will forget this super third set in RG final!!
12-10 for Capriati!!
Don't forget that Kim is only 18 years old!! Like Daniela and that she'll win Grand Slams and Tier I events!! Don't worry about it!!
Perhaps not this year, because she's injured but she will, she's a great champion!!
Perhaps, Kim will be out of the Top-10 but it'll be because she won't play a lot of tournaments and because she won't defend her points due to her injury!!!
Kournikova is a great player but not a great champion I think!!!!

Kim reached at least the quarters of the last 4 grand slams if that`s isn`t a great achievement for a 18 year old then you don`t have a clue!
