I agree with all of this post, with the exception of Henin (too soon) and Sharapova (don't trust the shoulder). Personally, I'm feeling Serena with a vengeance this year, and not just for the AO. A Serena with an axe to grind is a very dangerous opponent.

My one big fear about that "Serena with an ax to grind" is that her emotions are going to get the best of her. We've now seen in a couple of situations this past year Serena lash out on court, and while that fire can certainly take her game to another level, it can also cause a lot of trouble if it is not properly contained and used for her own benefit.

I can't wait to see what she brings to the Aussie. To be honest, I don't expect huge results from her at Sydney, but I think the Australian is going to be fascinating for her, and for a lot of other WTA stroylines that will play out over the season.
