I'm surprised that Schiavone, Schruff, Osterloh and Weingartener never won a title! Ossteroh plays challenger in US... Schiavone wasn't able to win a 75K challenger last year
lost to Bychkova
Poor Fran, she's come very close several times in the last year!

The thread's question is more interesting regarding only WTA titles, as any decent player can take an ITF if she really wanted to.
What is the highest rank:
1) Reached before winning a title?
2) Reached by a player who stayed titleless?
To the best of my knowledge, the answers are
1) Petrova #6 (maybe followed by Schiavone #11)
2) Kournikova #8
I'll greatly appreciate a top 5 (or 10) list to both.

Steffi Graf was #3 before she won her first title, I believe to remember.

You're probably right, although it's not easy to confirm this (1986 mid-year rankings are hard to find).
Chanda Rubin was #6 in 1996 without a title.
