I'm talking current 3rd best female tennis player, not ranking, just in case someone needs clarification.
Let me go by elimination.

- If Serena is playing anyone and is healthy, I expect her to win. So, in my mind, she's the best player right now.

- If Venus is playing anyone but Serena, and is healthy, I expect her to win. So, in my mind, she's the second best player right now.

- If Clijsters is playing anyone but Serena and Venus, and is healthy, I expect her to win. So, in my mind, she's the third best player right now.

- As for the fourth best, I don't have any solid expectation but Justine does come to mind as well as Davey, Cappy and Momo.

As a side point, when the first and second best don't or can't play due to various reasons including illness, why can't we accept that it behoves the third best to take the helm and be #1?

if they were all to have a throw down, im saying the sisters come out on top then Kim and the other one.

whos had the best year? Serena Justine (the slam) Kim Venus

vs the other three? Serena Venus Kim Justine

i would say Kim is doing better than Venus right now. but Venus has her number

so my educated opinion says Serena Kim Venus Justine *shrug*

vs the other three and you put Kim above Justine? Justine has two wins against Serena and Kim this year. Kim has three wins over justine but no wins over either Serena nor Venus.

And you say Kim is doing better than Venus right now so you put her above Venus, yet you put Justine, who has also done better than Venus this year below her?

Indeed, so you don't have to give arguments that don't make sense to back up your opinion.
