13 ZVONAREVA, VERA RUS
14 WILLIAMS, SERENA USA
15 WILLIAMS, VENUS USA
16 SCHNYDER, PATTY SUI
Most of the top 15 are sure pick, even Vera was on the 2003 GE list in by invitation before she made 2004 list on her own last year. But even if Patty made it to the 16 this year, she might not make it since she attacked WTA for not inviting her last year after ASV retired. Assuming this is going to be the 16 players on the list, which 4 others would you invite?
Tatiana Golovin
Mary Pierce
Jelena Dokic
Daniella Hantuchova
I would love to see K-Lina or Conchita making it, they dont seem to be popular enough tho.
