Wertheim's curse

Now that Serena is out of US Open, I can't wait to read his predictions. The player he predicts to win the title better watch out, as Serena was the only one immune to his curse! Look at some of his predictions:

Martina would win Wimbledon '99 beating Seles in the final.
Venus would win RG '01.
Clijsters would reach the final of RG '02.
Barbara Schett would reach the semis of RG and Wimbledon '99.
After AO '00 he said that Lindsay might win the Grand Slam that year. (I'll never forgive him this :mad: )He said that Dementieva might win a Slam in '01.

Now, most of these predictions made sense back in the time, it's just funny how tragically these players ended up in tournaments he predited them to win or to do well.

Now the GS prediction for Lindsay sure turned out to be WAAYYY off!! After that Lindsay didn´t win any slam, but instead was starting sign for Williams Domination!!
