Re: Weeks at #1
In the rankings Caroline still leads by 2500, 9335 and 6820 for Vera.
But her recent results have her dropping to #2 in 2011 points. This major becomes big in the race, if one of the top group has a huge USO, they might have a 1000 point lead leaving NY

True. Vera isn't a 'problem'. The threat is Li, Kvitova and especially Sharapova. Maybe Vika too.
USO and Beijing are gonna be crucial, as both must count among best 16. Could be interesting if all 4 or 5 women has a shot at #1 entering the YEC!

Re: Weeks at #1

We take 5 more weeks or it over IF her new coach can't bring her MUCH more confidence before PPO (Japan Open!) |

I was watching her loss to Mchale, its partly confidence. And she's not serving well. Even McHale gets a few free points off her serve. Caro's serve gives her nothing. She has to fight hard to hold serve, and was broken 4-4 in the 1st, & 5-5 in the 2nd.
I've seen a lot of players like Kournikova & Dementieva. You HAVE to hold serve at key points of the set, or nothing else you do well matters enough to offset the breaks

Maria has already surpassed her in the race and she has virtually nothing to defend after the US Open. If Maria plays well at the US Open and during the Asian swing she has a great chance to end the year as number one. Who would have imagined that back in January?
If Caroline wants to retain her number one ranking she needs to start playing great tennis now and continue to do so until the end of the year. Can she do that? Maybe. But it seems unlikely when you consider how poorly she performed in her last two tournaments. Even if she wins the US Open it might not be enough because Maria can potentially pick up a ton of points with a deep run there.
Kvitova, Li and Azarenka are also within striking distance and if any or all of them have a good run from now till the end of the season they have a good chance at surpassing Caroline.
After her subpar performance at Roland Garros and Wimbledon great results in Toronto and Cincinnati were an absolute must for Caroline but unfortunately she laid two massive eggs. As things stand now it seems very unlikely that Caroline will end 2011 as number one.

WTA site puts Venus at 335 weeks in top 5, Serena at 303 weeks and Sveta at 167 weeks: http://www.wtatennis.com/news/201108...256076_2428859
It's quite the discrepancy. What gives? It's based on this thread btw: http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=432901
Kim and Maria are the same as in this chart though.

Re: Weeks at #1
Doing well at the US Open, Beijing, and YEC is pretty important as all 3 results will be stuck in her ranking til the same time next year.
Does anybody have a list of what all YEC race top 10 are playing after the US Open?

Well, as far as events played in 2011 (the race) Maria is now number one. That is despite the fact that she played six fewer tournaments than Caroline has this season. So, assuming that Maria plays a relatively full schedule the rest of the season (US Open, Tokyo, Beijing, YEC) and does well in those tournaments she has a great chance of ending the year as number one. I should point out that Caroline is also still in a great position to end the year at number one but she needs to have better overall results for the rest of the season than several other players (Sharapova, Kvitova, Li and Azarenka). Yes, it is possible for her to achieve that but she needs to get her game together now and start producing, otherwise, barring a rafft of injuries to her rivals, she will not accumulate the needed points to retain her ranking.
