Last time these two played a major final, Justine only had won 1 slam (that she won couple weeks before it...), now she has 7 slams and is retired

Kim and Lindsay are mothers, Hingis came back, sniffed and left again, the only thing that never changes is Craybas.

Yeah, she went through the change back in the late 80's.

Talk of Jill makes me wonder what's become of our pundit, Jack?

Venus Williams first reached top 10 in early 1998. From 20 players who finished that year in the top 20 only 5 are still playing (#1 Davenport, #5 Venus, #20 Serena, #11 Schnyder and #18 Sugiyama)...

And Sugiyama still hasn't missed a slam!

Speaking of Ai :
- 2008 Wimbledon is 57th consecutive Grand Slam main draw played, the longest streak in history, male or female (previous record-holder was Wayne Ferreira, who played 56 straight).

Holder of 6 Singles titles and 36 Doubles Titles.

Celebrating her 33rd birthday tomorrow, July 5.

Then there is Martina - GOAT Martina, that is - who is playing for yet another Wimbledon title this weekend: in Ladies Invitational Doubles. She and her partner Helena Sukova have a 3-0 Round Robin record and will go up against Jana Novotna and her partner Kathy Rinaldi . At age 51 yr 8 mo.

I can still see her the day she won Mixed with Leander Paes -- the joy on both their faces, a beautiful sight.

Thank goodness today we don't have to worry about network embargos and showing matches on tape etc. Glad we can just see it live and not worry about it being interrupted late match.

So, there's still a chance that it could be moved to Court 2?
