There may be totally valid reasons for this happening, but this list does seem to consistently weight men's tennis above women's. I love Rafa to death, but I would have to contort myself to come up with a good rationale for him, as of March 2012, being above Margaret Court AND Chris Evert. Okay, no more complaining.

For sure, I'd also put Chris and Madge ahead of Borg- and I love Borg. I take nothing away from Borg for not winning the Aussie- very few of the really big players were bothering to play the Aussie during his peak years. But, his not winning the US Open drops him below these two (and arguably BJK) IMO.
