I had forgotten the JJ quote. That was classic. And Sesil "The Mouth That Roared" Karatancheva certainly has a way with a quip, doesn't she.

If there was an award for runnerup match of the year, or non-Slam final match of the year, I'd go Fed/Tipsy at the Aussie for the men, Jelena/Sofia Arvidsson at the USO.

El Jon has a soft spot in his heart for Venus.

I think any choice amongst the top 6 minus Dinara and Elena would be hard to argue against. Though Venus does look pretty on his book cover.

And Oracene, GV. He's not too keen on Richard, but he repeatedly has stated that he thinks the world of Oracene.

I liked the "Agent of the Year" category and winner.

WTA player of the year was between Venus and Serena. You can argue for either one.

As for WTA coach since both Oracene and Richard coach their daughters it should be a joint award for the both of them.

Otherwise I'm okay with his choices.
