Hey-did anyone happen to see who sits at the top of the doubles rankings in the race this week? Davenport/Morariu! Pretty awesome for both of them-amazing that Corina got back to #1 after her comeback.

It is a shame though, because since they are taking a few weeks off, (how many is it?) they'll fall down I bet. It's such a shame, because they always start off so strong, and then don't play and fall.

It is great to see Corina have some success after all she has been through. It would be great to see them maintain this level.

But you have to wonder if the effort Lindsay puts into doubles is going to affect her singles like it did at the AO. If she wants to seriously consider winning another major this year, I feel that she will have to opt of the doubles.

I think they'll stop play tournements for a good while now... I don't see them playing doubles at Wimbledon and certainly not at the US if it's looking as promising as it was last year. They won't make YEC... although I think it should be 8 partners rather than 8 people who get in.

I love to see them play together, but I almost wish Corina would get another steady partner. Then Lindsay could focus on singles, and Corina could have more success in doubles as the year goes on.

Trouble is that with doubles it is difficult to get teams together, especially with different partners wanting to play different events.

If they play the grand slams together and maybe Tier Is and get good results they have a good chance of qualifying.

How great for Corina!

I disagree.

I don't think her doubles hurt her chances at the
Australian and I think doubles only helps her game.

I've always liked Lindsay but for the life of me
was and continually am frustrated at times with how
she could lose one or two rather meaningless points her
or there and just turn completely negative.

IMO, her attitude is what caused
her the Australian title.

She also seems to love playing with Corina so i don't
think she'll be stopping anytime soon with that.

Yes I saw it, and I made a cheering thread for Corina too.
She is such an inspiration.

 

[BrknRacketStrngs]

Yeah-they really seem to enjoy playing together, so I hope they continue.

corina should partner with gisela dulko. from what i've seen gisela is a terrifc doubles player and has some really outstanding volleys.

Doubles may well be good practice but it wore down Lindsay's body.

You know something, for a player so potentially near the end of her career, this is amazing. I have real respect for Davenport, well done to her!
