While I agree that the restrictions might keep us from seeing someone attain a Hingisesque level of success at a young age, I think there will always be room for a teenage phenom to take the WTA by storm. But I don't know that there are any on the horizon. Who's the last young lady that you heard mentioned as a future multiple-Slam winner? It seems like the most anyone says these days is future top-10er.

Does anyone know of some young lady lingering outside the spotlight that is being talked of as the next huge thing? I don't. For all the love MLDB gets, she's now 16, has yet to crack the Top 75 (and is now back in the 100s), and has made 1 Quarterfinal - at Tashkent.
Yes, it is more a question of young talent for some reason it is not there for the moment. The new age restrictions would have only delay Hingis by one year.
