Silly people.

Serena HAS to be at her career high.

No, but probably Hingis is.

Sassy!

Chris Evert set a lot of records in her day; one that perhaps may live on for a while is the best career W/L percentage.

Evert: 1309-146 (.900)
Graf: 900-115 (.887)
Navratilova: 1442-219 (.868)
Seles: 595-122 (.830)
S. Williams: 398-83 (.827)
Henin:493-107 (.822)
Sharapova: 305-70 (.813)
Goolagong: 704-165 (.810)
V.Williams: 503-119 (.809)
Hingis: 548-133 (.805)
Clijsters: 427-104 (.804)
Davenport: 753-194 (.795)
Austin: 335-90 (.788)
Ivanovic: 206-70 (.746)
Sanchez Vicario: 759-295 (.720)
Mauresmo: 515-209 (.711)
Capriati: 430-176 (.710)
Jankovic: 316-168 (.653)

Over the course of her 20-year career, Evert lost to fewer different players than any of the other former #1s. (That includes newer players such as Sharapova and Ivanovic, who have only lost 70 matches each as a pro.)

1. Guess how many different players Evert lost to in her career.
2. For you old-timers, name as many of Evert's winning opponents as you can.

I'm not that old but I remember in her last year she lost to Zina, Steffi, Monica, Gabriela, Barbara Paulus, Lori McNeil.....and maybe someone else.

Add Martina Navratilova, Tracy Austin(who broke Chris 125 clay win streak at Italian Open), Hana Mandlikova, Margaret Court, Billie Jean King.
