A few days ago there was a post here about Jelena Dokic, where the writer said she was a former "Grand Slam Finalist" (after discussion somebody explained here that she was a DOUBLES finalist, which I think the writer of the original piece did not know).
From YAHOO Sports: (http://sports.yahoo.com/ten/news;_yl...v=st&type=lgns

"Playing in her first tournament since Wimbledon, Sharapova raced out to a 4-0 lead in the first set en route to the triumph."

The score of the match was 6-0, 6-3. So, after she raced to a 4-0 lead, she... tap danced to 6-0? She blundered all the way to 6-0, and then the match?
Days like this make me wonder how come some people get those juicy Yahoo! jobs when they obviously can't tell a foot fault from a foot note.
