Federer is one of the few who can handle Roddick and Roddick is one of the few who can handle Federer.

Men's Race:
1. Federer. 746
2. Coria. 479
3. Roddick. 454
4. Moya. 414
5. Henman. 319
6. Hewitt. 316
7. Gaudio. 285
8. Safin. 283
9. Nalbandian. 252
10.Grosjean. 235

I don't know how many points the #1 of 2003 in the end had, but Federer already has 746! I assume he'll get over the magic 1000.

1. Mauresmo. 2444
2. Henin. 2321
3. Davenport. 2197
4. Myskina. 2163

8. V. Williams. 1640

Weird list.

I was utterly shocked when I saw how Sharapova beat Serena. Isn't that girl only 17? Wow.

ForeverInLoveWithJus

Sad to see Venus and Serena so low in that list.

its amazing how the wheel turns, not soo long ago, they were the un-conquerable, same situation in the olympics with Marion Jones and Maurice Greene. Thats life i guess.

but that is why it is so admirable when sportsmen like M.Schu, for example, are able to maintain their dominance for such a long time , and in the tennis world, pete sampras was an example like this.

Yep, 17 years old. But Martina Hingis was only 16 when she won a Grand Slam in 1997.

JammieJam

that was brilliant, i remember it fondly, when she beat Novotna, after going behind. she was so my favorite.

ForeverInLoveWithJus

Poor Martina Hingis. I wish she still played.

Greg Rusedski has proved all his critics wrong by winning the Hall of Fame Championships in Newport yesterday. He beat German Alexander Popp in two sets 7-6 7-6 to claim his 14th ATP title.

I still think his career is in trouble.
