If the rankings were still done like the early 90s Jankovic would schedule differently, plain and simple.

Obviously and they also had quality points, but under such a ranking system it is not possible (or much harder at least) to be ranked that high without winning anything of any importance. Right now Rome is Jelena's only title...

True but she has a bunch of big semis. I guess it doesn't really bother me if a player doesn't have that many titles.

And she won Rome. Which for my money is the fifth biggest tournament of the year.

Sorry, how is she #1?

And:

semis at Australian, semis at IW, final at Miami, semis at the French

Justine. And Ana...

And Sveta, Maria, and Serena.

I thought she had to make the final? What did I miss?

that's what I thought... and I actually checked again this morning on the sonyericsson wta homepage and they write that she blew her chances of becoming number one by losing to Cibulkova.

I believe the scenario is that she won't become number one next monday, but she will the week after when last year's LA points come off (Ivanovic won).

That is correct.

And she will probably lose it a week later when her own Toronto finalist points from last year come off...
