Introduction Do you ever ask yourself what the WTA rankings are supposed to measure? Chances are, your answer would simply be “They measure which player is better.” If you think about it, though, that’s just pushing the question back a level. What does it mean to be “better”? Obvious answers include “the player who is more likely to win a particular match is better” or “the player who is more likely to win a tournament is better.” In fact the WTA rankings don’t measure this; they don’t measure anything, really, except the ability to achieve a high WTA ranking. In all their miscellaneous press releases, the WTA never really addresses the issue of what the WTA rankings are supposed to mean. Indeed, the bare fact that they are eliminating quality points — the best part of their ranking system in terms of predicting future results (see page 68, and indeed the whole section on alternate rankings starting on page 52) — in 2006 demonstrates that they have no idea what a ranking is supposed to be. But suppose someone went in and reformed the WTA and insisted that they came up with a relatively decent ranking system. Then what? Even if the rankings told us who is the best player overall, that doesn’t tell us who is best on clay, or on grass, or even on hardcourts. Nor does it tell us who is best at avoiding upsets. Nor who is most able to play a lot of matches in a year. Some of these should perhaps be taken into account in the rankings. Others assuredly should not. But all of these things — even the most oddball statistics — tell us something about the state of tennis. Some people view all statistics as lies. This is precisely backward: all properly calculated statistics tell us something. The lie, if there is one, is in pretending they tell us something they don’t. (This is why I find the WTA rankings so obnoxious, and the proposed changes even more obnoxious. It’s not that the new rankings won’t tell us something; it’s that they won’t tell us what the WTA implicitly claims they will tell us.) So this document is an attempt to tell a fuller story. Two statistics tell more than one; three statistics tell still more. So hundreds, obviously, are better still. The statistics here can’t tell us everything. They can certainly tell us a lot more than the WTA rankings do. Want to know which player won the highest fraction of her matches? It’s all there on page page 60. Who had the easiest path to a title? Try page 44. Care which tournament had the most top players? We try three different ways of measuring that, starting on page 147. I was quite sure, when I started grinding out alternate rankings, that they would show that the WTA rankings were wrong: That , not , should have been the year-end #1. It’s not just that she won a Slam and Davenport didn’t. She had more wins, a better winning percentages, more titles, better titles, you name it. Surprisingly, it’s not that simple. You can make a case for Clijsters; she does win a lot of the alternate rankings, including most of those based on variations of won/lost. But Davenport has her own set of alternate rankings won, including two of the three “idealized” system (page 74 and following) I consider most likely to in fact measure the “best” player. In addition to the large section on singles, there is a section on doubles — inadequate, really, but larger than you will find almost anywhere else. Plus a lot of WTA history, some directly based on WTA records but some reinterpreted just as 2005’s results have been reinterpreted to try to present a fuller picture. It will be obvious that there are a lot of numbers here. I’ve tried to explain what most of them mean, but I also try to let you draw your own conclusions. If I just wanted to tell you who is best — well, I could do that, but why should you believe me? This is your chance to work out your own answer. I would urge you to treat the numbers not as a burden but as fun — where else are you going to find out, for instance, which Top 30 player had the most doubles partners (page 216). Or which player earned the most Lucky Loser slots (page 159). These statistics are supposed to be fun as well as informative. I hope you’ll take advantage. Please note that this information is offered free; the only restriction on its use is that I retain copyright of the work and of the individual calculations. In return, I ask you to understand that this is a lot of work, so I surely made some errors. There are no guarantees of anything in here; if for some reason your life depends on, say, some player’s clay won/lost percentage, be sure to check it yourself. Robert B. Waltz, December 20, 2005

2005 In Review: The Top Players The Final Top Thirty Because we can’t cover every tennis pro, we have to devote our attention to relatively few. For obvious reasons, the WTA’s Top 30 are the most important of those few. The list below summarizes those players. In addition to listing the players, this table shows a few things about them. “Best 17 score” and “Number of Tournaments” are from the WTA, used to calculate their rankings. “Point gap from the preceding” shows how many points a player would need to earn to overtake the player above her. So Hantuchova, a mere five points behind #18 Kuznetsova, is a very strong #19, but , more than 750 points behind #10 , is a very weak #11. “Began year at” is the player’s ranking twelve months earlier. The final column shows how much her ranking has changed in the interim. Note that a negative number in that column indicates an upward move; smaller numbers are better. So Ivanovic, e.g., had the biggest upward move of any player in the Top 30: 85 places!

Top Players Analysed All the Players in the Top Ten in 2005: The Complete Top Ten Based on WTA (Best 17) Statistics The lists below show all players who have ranked in the Top 10 in 2005, with the highest rank achieved. A total of sixteen players spent time in the Top Ten in 2005, the same as the sixteen we had in 2004 and only slightly up from the fifteen in 2003, far more than the twelve in 2002, but less than the seventeen in 2001; we had sixteen in 2000 also.

Capriati (9) Mauresmo (2) Schnyder (7) Clijsters (2) Molik (8) Sharapova (1) Davenport (1) Myskina (3) S. Williams (2) Dementieva (5) Petrova (8) V. Williams (6) Hénin-Hardenne (5) Pierce (5) Zvonareva (10) Kuznetsova (4)

The following list shows all the players who have occupied a given position in the Top 10: 1. Davenport, Sharapova 2. Clijsters, Davenport, Mauresmo, Sharapova, S. Williams 3. Clijsters, Davenport, Mauresmo, Myskina, Sharapova, S. Williams 4. Clijsters, Kuznetsova, Mauresmo, Sharapova, S. Williams 5. Dementieva, Hénin-Hardenne, Kuznetsova, Myskina, Pierce 6. Dementieva, Hénin-Hardenne, Kuznetsova, Myskina, Pierce, S. Williams, V. Williams 7. Dementieva, Hénin-Hardenne, Kuznetsova, Pierce, Schnyder, S. Williams, V. Williams 8. Clijsters, Dementieva, Hénin-Hardenne, Molik, Petrova, Schnyder, S. Williams, V. Williams 9. Capriati, Molik, Myskina, Petrova, Schnyder, S. Williams, V. Williams 10. Capriati, Clijsters, Dementieva, Molik, Myskina, Petrova, Schnyder, V. Williams, Zvonareva The Complete Top Ten under the 1996 Ranking System This list shows all players who would have been in the Top 10 under the 1996 ranking system (total points divided by tournaments, minimum fourteen), with the highest ranking achieved. (For the list of the final Top 10 under this system, see the section on Alternate Rankings.)

Capriati (7) Kuznetsova (6) Pierce (3) Clijsters (1) Mauresmo (2) Schnyder (10) Davenport (1) Molik (8) Sharapova (2) Dementieva (5) Myskina (4) S. Williams (1) Hénin-Hardenne (3) Petrova (10) V. Williams (6)

Note that there were sixteen Top Ten players in the WTA rankings, and fifteen under the divisor; Zvonareva never made it in the divisor standings. Other than that, it is the same sixteen players in both lists, though their peak rankings differ somewhat (e.g. Clijsters and Serena both made it to #1 under the divisor but not in the WTA rankings; Sharapova, who was #1 under the WTA rankings for about two months, never made it under the divisor). This is a relatively high rate of agreement; although last year we had the same sixteen players in both lists, historically the difference is typically about 15% of the total players in the two lists.

Ranking Fluctuation The charts on these pages shows how highlight players ranked in the course of the year. The graph below shows the data visually; this is followed by a table with the precise data. In each, the season is divided into half-month sections, with players’ rankings listed for the specified days. In the table, this is followed by the mean (average), median, and standard deviation, indicating how much a player’s ranking varied during the year. So Suárez, with a standard deviation of 70.1, showed the biggest fluctuation in 2005, followed distantly by Clijsters and even more distantly by Ivanovic and Sprem, while Davenport, with a deviation of only 0.4, showed the least fluctuation, followed by Mauresmo and Sharapova. One players listed — Capriati — did not play in the year, so her statistics trace only her decline as points came off. The graph shows the bi-monthly numbers for the sixteen players who spent time in the Top Ten (with all rankings above #35 are treated as “36+”) Players are listed by initials, except that Amélie Mauresmo is Ma, Mo, and My because they have the same initials. The players shown are (in order based on their initials) , , Justine Hénin-Hardenne, Kim Clijsters, Lindsay Davenport, Amélie Mauresmo, Alicia Molik, , , Anastasia Myskina, , , Svetalana Kuznetsova, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, and .

Top Players Sorted by Median Ranking This table lists our highlight players in order of their median ranking — that is, the ranking they spent as much of the year above as below. This indicates their typical standing in the course of the year. It should be noted that this figure takes 2004 and 2005 results equally into account, since rankings at the beginning of the year were based entirely on 2004 results, while 2005 results were the sole influence by the end of the year.

Short Summary: The Top Eighty The following table shows the entire WTA Top Eighty, with brief summary of results. In the table, Final Rank is a player’s year-end ranking (based on the November 14, 2005 rankings), Player is of course the player, Score is her Best 17 point total, # of Trn is the number of tournaments she played (including Challengers), Best Rank is her highest ranking during the year 2005, Won/Lost is won/lost record (in the notes to this field, Wi=Withdrawal, WO=walkover. So Mauresmo, for instance, won 59 matches, lost eleven, received two walkovers, and withdrew once). Note that this figure includes only WTA main draws. Many players will have losses in wins and losses in qualifying and/or Challengers; the highest-ranked of these was Ivanovic (for qualifying) and Schiavone (for Challengers). Titles is the list of titles the player won, if any. We list the names (sometimes abbreviated), then the number of titles in parentheses. So #4 Maria Sharapova’s line, e.g., reads PanPaci, , Birm (3). This means Sharapova won three titles — the Pan Pacific, Doha, and . Challenger wins are not listed. Players marked * are “highlight” players studied extensively throughout this document.

Tournament Results Summary of Results for Top Players The list below shows all the tournaments the highlight players played in 2005. To explain the data in the table: The numbers in parentheses list, first, the Tier of the tournament, second, how far the player went, and third, the number of wins achieved. This is followed by a list of top players beaten en route, with the player’s rank at the time. For example, the first item in the entry for Shinobu Asagoe reads Auckland (IV, F/Srebotnik [87], 4) — Frazier (26) This means that Asagoe’s first tournament of 2005 was Auckland. The “IV” means that it was a Tier IV event; if a Roman numeral is used, it refers to the tier of the event; the other possibilities are “Slam” for the Grand Slams, “Champ” for the year-end Championships, and a dollar amount, e.g. $50K, for a Challenger. F/Srebotnik means that Asagoe reached the second round, where she was beaten by Katarina Srebotnik, then ranked #87. The 4 indicates that she won four matches prior to that defeat. Players she defeated included Amy Frazier, then ranked #26. (Note: only wins over Top 35 players are listed.) If a description is in bold, it means the player won the title. 38/Shinobu Asagoe Auckland (IV, F/Srebotnik [87], 4) — Frazier (26) Hobart (V, 2R/Zheng [82], 1) Australian Open (Slam, 2R/Li Na [64], 1) Pan Pacific (I, SF/Sharapova [4], 3) — Dementieva (7) Doha (II, 1R/Bovina [16], 0) Dubai (II, 1R/Martinez [35], 0) Indian Wells (I, 2R/Clijsters [133], 0) Miami (I, R16/Sharapova [3], 2) — Schiavone (16) Amelia Island (II, QF/Petrova [12], 3) — Myskina (6) Charleston (I, R16/Vaidisova [49], 1+1 walkover) Rome (I, 1R/Pennetta [29], 0) Strasbourg (III, 1R/Douchevina [54], 0) Roland Garros (Slam, 2R/Karatantcheva [98], 1) Birmingham (III, R16/Chakvetadze [44], 1) Eastbourne (II, 1R/Raymond [50], 0) Wimbledon (Slam, 1R/Maleeva [43], 0) San Diego (I, 1R/Karatantcheva [49], 0) Los Angeles (II, 1R/Zheng [76], 0) Canadian Open (I, R16/Myskina [14], 2) U.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 44 Number of Tournament Wins for Highlight Players The following table shows tournament wins by the highlight players. Tournaments are categorized as major (Tier II or higher) or minor (Tier III or lower). The tournaments are listed, with their tier, on the next line. Highlight players with no titles were (those marked * ended the year in the Top 25): Shinobu Asagoe, Marion Bartoli, Elena Bovina, (Jennifer Capriati), Anna Chakvetadze, Nathalie Déchy*, Elena Dementieva*, Jelena Dokic, Gisela Dulko, Silvia Farina Elia, Tatiana Golovin*, Anna-Lena Grönefeld*, Daniela Hantuchova*, Martina Hingis, Jelena Jankovic*, Svetlana Kuznetsova*, Elena Likhovtseva*, Evgenia Linetskaya, Magdalena Maleeva, (Kveta Peschke), Lisa Raymond, Chanda Rubin, Francesca Schiavone*, Meghann Shaughnessy, Karolina Sprem, Paola Suárez, Ai Sugiyama, and Fabiola Zuluaga. Kveta Peschke is a sort of special case; she did not win a title in 2005, but did win a Challenger (Deauville $50K 2004) in the course of this WTA year. Dementieva is the only Top Ten player without a title. Non-highlight players with titles were: Klara Koukalova (’s-Hertogenbosch, Portoroz), Michaella Krajicek (Tashkent; also Bergamo $50K 2004, Ortisei $75K), Nuria Llagostera Vives (Rabat), Sania Mirza (Hyderabad), Lucie Safarova (Estoril, Forest Hills; also Prostejov $75K), Yan Zi (GuangZhou), and Zheng Jie (Hobart). Koukalova and Safarova were the only players with multiple titles to end up outside the Top 25. Every player who won a Tier II or higher, except Alicia Molik who was sick for much of the year, ended the year in the Top 25.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 47 Tiers of Tournaments Played and Average Tier The goal of this statistic is to determine just how “rich” each player’s schedule was, expressed as a number correlating with the tier. The Slams and the Los Angeles Championships are treated mathematically as “Tier 0,” while Challengers are “Tier 8.” That is, in taking the mean (average), we assign 0 points for playing a Slam or the Championships, 1 point for a Tier I, 2 for a Tier II, etc. The lower the mean and median strength, the tougher one’s schedule.) In each category, we list the number of events the player played at that level, and then the percentage of her total she played at that level. So Asagoe, for instance, played four Slams, and twenty-five total events, so the four Slams are 16% of the events she played this year. The mean is, of course, the “average” Tier of tournament played, based on the above formula. Looking at the results on the next page, we see that the Top Five in terms of strongest (highest average tier) schedules were Mary Pierce and Justine Hénin-Hardenne, who managed the astonishing feat of playing more events above the Tier I level than below (which is really too strong a schedule for the health of the Tour; the author would consider an average tier of 1.3 to be about right), followed by Svetlana Kuznetsova, Maria Sharapova, and Fabiola Zuluaga of all people; Serena Williams, who has led the list in the two previous years, is #6. The weakest schedules were played by Peschke, Frazier, Grönefeld, Kirilenko, and Smashnova, who spent most of the year with relatively low rankings; the weakest schedules by players who were Top 30 for most of the year were Farina Elia and Schiavone. If we wish to look at the “typical” player, based on the listed players, we find that she played 18.6% of her events at Slams, 0.9% at the Championships, 30.1% at the Tier I events, 32.0% at the Tier II level, 11.7% at the Tier III level, 5.5% at the Tier IV level, and 124% at the Challenger level. The table below shows how many events would be “expected” of a player with 6, 8, 10, 12, events, etc. Note that, once we get to 26 events, players are “expected” to play five Slams, which is obviously impossible; players’ schedules inevitably get weaker as they play more events. Events Expected Expected Expected Expected Expected Expected Expected Played: Slams Champ Tier I Tier II Tier III Tier IV Challengers 6 1022100 8 1023100 10 2033110 12 2044110 14 3044210 16 3055210 18 3056210 20 4066210 22 4077310 24 4078310 26 5088310 28 5089320 30 60910420 We can, incidentally, determine who has the most and least deviant schedules on this basis. (The method used, for those who care, is RMS distance: Square root of the sum of the squares of the fraction of events played at each tier divided by the average fraction of events played at each tier.) By this standard, the most deviant schedule was turned in by Peschke (all those Challengers), followed by Frazier (Challengers again), Pierce (because she has so few low-tier events), Sharapova, and Davenport. The players with the most typical schedules were Myskina (who was most typical in 2003 also, and third on the list in 2004), Jankovic, Golovin, Asagoe, and Sugiyama (who was most typical in 2004). But enough of this. The actual data follows:

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 51 Alternate Rankings 2006 will see the WTA make a dramatic change in its ranking system, eliminating the “quality points” players earned for beating high-ranked opponents. My ears are still spouting steam over this. It should be recalled that the purpose of the rankings is to grant admission to tournaments, and to seed the players who play them. This means that the goal of the system should be to most accurately predict who will win particular matches and events. This is simple mathematical truth. Obviously there is an upper bound on how complicated such a system can be; the players have to understand it. But it is noteworthy that a slight increase in complexity can produce a dramatic improvement in accuracy — and a slight decrease in complexity can dramatically reduce the predictive power of the system. The elimination of quality points decreases the complexity only slightly — the rankings before the change were not difficult to calculate — but past Statistical Abstracts have shown that quality points are the strongest predictive aspect of the rankings. Eliminating quality points, therefore, will reduce the ability of the rankings to predict future events. In other words, the WTA is deliberately making its rankings less capable of actually ranking the players. But while the author finds it hard to imagine anything more boneheaded than altering the ranking system to be deliberately less accurate (while conceding that the WTA is much, much more original than the author when it comes to being boneheaded), it does bring out a point: There is absolutely nothing magic about the WTA’s 2005 ranking system — indeed, about the only good thing one can say about it is that it was better than the 2006 ranking system. At best, the WTA’s best 17 system emphasizes a certain sort of results — in particular, the ability to play a lot. This is surely not the only thing we want to study. If we want to fully explore a player’s success, we need more. Even a more accurate ranking system, such as the ELO rankings used in chess, is only a single number. Players are multi-dimensional creatures; we can much better describe them by using several measures. (And then, perhaps, conflating them into a Grand Combined Ranking.) This section of alternate rankings does that: We slice the data other ways, emphasizing particular strenths and weaknesses. For example, the 2005 ranking system is “Best 17”: Players earn points at every event (“round points” based on the round they reach, plus the quality points for the players they beat). The WTA sorts their point totals and adds up their seventeen highest scores in the last year. Alternate rankings calculate points differently, or total them differently, or something. A typical way to create alternate rankings would be to use some of the WTA’s earlier ranking systems, such as “Best Infinity”: This system adds up the total points from all the tournaments a player played, whether the number of events be 9 (for Justine Hénin-Hardenne) or 29 (for Jelena Jankovic). It is essentially the system used by the WTA in 1997, except that the round point table has been repeatedly changed since then.

We also see Anna-Lena Grönefeld in the Top 20 rather than Dinara Safina.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 53 If Best 17 and Total Score rankings are almost identical (since both are additive rankings), the same is not true when either is compared with the WTA’s 1996 ranking system, Points per Tournament (minimum 14).

The divisor consistently changes the Top Ten. This time, the Top Two stay unchanged, but note that Mary Pierce moves all the way up to #3, with Amélie Mauresmo falling to #5. Venus Williams rises from #10 to #7, and Serena Williams moves from #11 to #9, knocking Nadia Petrova out of the Top Ten. The two fast-rising youngsters, Ana Ivanovic and Nicole Vaidisova, also gain, and the injured Alicia Molik does not suffer as much as she did under the WTA ranking system.. On the other hand, we see that Nathalie Déchy and Ai Sugiyama and Jill Craybas are significantly over-ranked. But the divisor has a problem: Players these days are expected to play at least 17 events (both by the ranking system and the Gold Exempt rules) — meaning they must play more weak events. The , even when healthy, ignored this, but most players try to 17 events. We should perhaps adjust the divisor accordingly. So we offer the “modern divisor”: same as the above, but a minimum divisor of 17.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 56 Best 14 The WTA uses the “Best 17” ranking system — totalling the points earned in the seventeen tournaments where one earned the most points. For most of the Nineties, the ATP uses the related “Best 14” system — the total points earned in one’s best fourteen events. If applied to the WTA, the result would be as follows: Best 14 Rank Name Best 14 Total WTA Rank 1Davenport 4837 1 2 Clijsters 4611 2 3Mauresmo 3929 3 4 Sharapova 3886 4 5 Pierce 3797 5 6 Hénin-Hardenne 2936 6 7Williams, Venus 2628 10 8 Dementieva 2616 8 9 Schnyder 2550 7 10 Petrova 2439 9 11 Williams, Serena 1851 11 12 Déchy 1649 12 13 Schiavone 1640 13 14 Myskina 1612 14 15 Ivanovic 1549 16 16 Vaidisova 1533 15 17 Likhovtseva 1491 17 18 Kuznetsova 1488 18 19 Hantuchova 1362 19 20 Grönefeld 1296 21 Safina 1289 20 Jankovic 1218 22 Pennetta 1182 23 Golovin 1163 24 Kirilenko 1042.5 25 Molik 995 29 Srebotnik 994.75 28 Peschke 978 26 Farina Elia 963 — Dulko 928 27 Sugiyama 923.5 30 Martinez 920 32 Chakvetadze 898.25 33 Medina Garrigues 877 34 Asagoe 873 38 Bartoli 781.75 40 Zvonareva 756 42 Smashnova 741 43 Maleeva 645 52 Theoretically, this isn’t very different from Best 17, but the effects have differed over time. This year, the first change is at #7. In 2004, we had a change as high as #4. In 2003, Best 14 and Best 17 produced the same Top Eight — but in 2001, the difference affected the #1 ranking; Jennifer Capriati rather than Lindsay Davenport would have been on top. This is the ultimate problem with best-however-many rankings: If the number of events is high, it rewards players who play a lot, whether they have consistently good results or not; if the number is low; it rewards a few big results over consistency.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 57 Slotted Best 18 (ATP Entry Rank) This is the men’s “ranking” system. I put “ranking” in quotes because of several complications — the most notable being the discontinuity (top players are expected to play Masters Series events, while lower-ranked players need not). It’s very hard to rank on this system if players aren’t playing to it. But anyway.... The ATP system counts a player’s results in Slams, Masters Series (equivalent to the WTA’s Tier I events), and five other events, plus the year-end Championships if qualified. In the table, “Slam Points, LA Champ Points, Tier I Points” refer to what the players earned at those “Required” events; “Optional Points” are what the players earned in their five best other events (Note: The WTA has ten, not nine, Tier I events. We’ll count all ten). The last column, “Required Events,” counts how many “required” events players played. If the players followed the ATP rules, the number should be 14. Note that only Jankovic played all 14.

This year, the first change came at #3, but nobody moved in or out of the Top Ten. In 2004, we had a change at #5. In 2002 and 2003, its effects were minimal. In 2001, however, seven of the top ten positions would have changes hands, including the #1 ranking..

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 58 Total Wins The list below shows how the top players fared in terms of wins (I also show losses for balance). The reason this deviates so far from the rankings is that some of these players (e.g., obviously, Schnyder) played large numbers of low-tier (Tier III-IV) tournaments or, further down the rankings, qualifying rounds. Since they faced low-level opposition, their wins do not count as much toward the rankings. Others were unwilling or unable to play many tournaments. Though their winning percentage was high (witness Hénin-Hardenne), their total wins were relatively low. Where two players have the same number of wins, I list the player with fewer losses first. Note: As elsewhere, this list includes only official tour wins; non-point-bearing events (e.g. Fed Cup) are excluded. Walkovers are not calculated as wins or losses. The list is not comprehensive; it omits players who spent their time primarily in Challengers (e.g. Shahar Peer, who has over 40 total wins but only 22 WTA main draw victories). Only the Top 30 plus highlight players have been examined. Finally, the numbers here may not match those in the section on the Top Eighty. That section listed only main draw wins; this includes Challenger and Qualifying results as well.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 59 Winning Percentage Based on the data on wins above, we can also calculate these players’ win percentages. It’s little surprise that Justine Hénin-Hardenne is first; she won a lot on her favorite surface (clay) and didn’t play much on anything else. The demotions are more surprising: Schnyder out of the Top Ten, Dementieva barely Top 15, Déchy below #20, Likhovtseva in the #30 range. But this almost always happens with this statistic.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 60 Divisor Rankings, No Slam Bonus In terms of strength of field, the Slams are no stronger than the Year-End event or Miami — or even Filderstadt. But the Slams award double points — at Filderstadt, you earn 225 points for winning the tournament, and 100 points for beating the #1 player, while at a Slam, it’s 650 and 200 points, respectively. The following table calculates divisor rankings if this Slam Bonus is eliminated. Surfaces being what they are, I maintain that this is proper: Does winning Roland Garros really tell you three as much about who is going to win Zürich as does winning Filderstadt?

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 61 The “Majors Ranking” It is an unfortunate fact that tennis uses the word “major” as a synonym for “Slam.” It’s unfortunate because it leaves us with no good word for “the best events.” The Slams are, of course, among the strongest events on the tour — but there are usually at least half a dozen other events which are competitive in terms of field strength. And many of them aren’t even Tier I events; the Tier II tournaments at Sydney and Filderstadt have traditionally been stronger than the average Tier I; the Tier I events at Moscow and Tokyo, by contrast, have a history of being too weak for the points they award. Quality points make up for some of that — or they did in the days when the WTA had the brains to award them — but not all. Which gives us the basis for another ranking, the “Majors Ranking.” We take the ten best events, and count results only in those events. In 2005, our list is Sydney, Australian Open, Miami, Rome, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, San Diego, U. S. Open, Filderstadt, and the Los Angeles Championships. (The list does vary from year to year, as described below. I probably shouldn’t have used Sydney this year, since it was weaker than usual, but it’s not proper to change in mid-year; it would raise the possibility of picking an event to help a favorite player.) Since all these events are strong, we don’t need quality points for this ranking. And early losses are worthless. We’ll count only semifinals and better: 1 point for a semifinal, 3 for a final, 5 for a win. Note that this gives a title more relative value than the WTA ranking table. The WTA awards Win/Final/ Semifinal points in the ratio 20:14:9; this system awards 20:12:4, because winning is much more memorable than being a finalist, and hardly anyone remembers a player who doesn’t even make the semifinal. By definition, no more than forty players can earn majors points in a year, and in practice fifteen is about normal. Also by definition, only 100 points are awarded in a year. It will be evident that the “Majors Ranking” is not useful as an overall ranking system — it isn’t intended to be — but it is a good measure of the accomplishments we might count toward Player of the Year. We note that an unusually high total of 21 players with Majors points this year, though the 15 points scored by leader Amélie Mauresmo is rather low. (That’s inevitable, with only 100 points to award: If a lot of players have points, then nobody can have many.) More surprising is the fact that, with such a low total for the leader, we have only four players with ten or more points. To give some perspective on these numbers: In 2004, we had 17 players with Majors points, though with even lower totals for the leader: Lindsay Davenport and Mauresmo led with 13 points, Serena Williams had 12, and four others had 10 points, with the rest lower. 2003 was more typical though much more top-heavy: 14 players, led by Kim Clijsters (32 points), Justine Hénin-Hardenne (22), Serena Williams (15), and no one else with more than 8. In 2002, we had fifteen players: Serena Williams of course led with 29 points, then Venus Williams (16), Clijsters (13), Capriati (11), and all others below 10. In 2001, when Indian Wells replaced Rome, we had only thirteen Majors point-scorers, despite which the leaders had lower totals: Venus Williams (22), Capriati (15), Davenport (14), Hingis (14), Serena (13), and the rest lower. In 2000, we must add Philadelphia (substituting for Filderstadt, which in 2000 had its field depleted by the Olympics) and the Canadian Open for Indian Wells. We had sixteen players that year; The rankings were: Hingis (24), Davenport (22), Venus (15), and the rest below ten. In 1999, Filderstadt substitutes for the Canadian Open, and we again had sixteen players: Hingis (31), Davenport (23), Venus (11), Graf (10), and the rest below 10. Since I started compiling this statistic, the highest score has been the 32 points by Clijsters in 2003 (yes, the year she didn’t win any Slams — but won everything else). Prior to that, the biggest score I can guarantee is Martina Hingis’s 43 points in 1997. No doubt players like Graf in 1988 and 1989 scored higher, but I don’t have the tournament strength data to determine which events belong on the Majors list. The list of players with at least one Majors point in 2005 is as follows (I also show the Majors points earned at each event):

Calculated by taking a player’s Best 17 total, then subtracting her quality points. In general, a player who does better in this ranking than in the WTA rankings is one who is failing to beat top players, and is attaining ranking by proceeding through easy matches. A player who stands lower in this ranking than the WTA ranking is one who perhaps has bad losses but who also probably has beaten a number of higher-ranked players. We include this because it approximates the travesty the WTA will call a “ranking system” next year.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 67 Quality Points Per Tournament (“Future Potential Ranking”) The reverse of the above, this ranking calculates the difficulty of the opposition a player has overcome. For players outside the Top Six, it is a good measure of how they stack up against other players, and how likely they are to produce upsets. For the Top Six, it is less meaningful, because the varying levels of quality point awards for the top players (that is, the fact that a win over #1 is worth more than a win over #4) obscures their results. Overall, the Quality Points per Tournament ranking serves best as an indicator of players with lots of “up side” — players who look as if they will move much higher in the coming year or two. For 2002, e.g., it “predicted” Daniela Hantuchova, though, to be fair, in 2003 it “predicted” . But it redeemed itself in 2003 by picking Maria Sharapova. And then, last year, it predicted that Sharapova would not improve as much in 2005; it also forecast falls for Anastasia Myskina, Svetlana Kuznetsova, and Ai Sugiyama. Plus it also forecast big moves by Sesil Karatantcheva (who was last year’s #127, but #35 in quality points per tournament — which just happens to be her 2005 year-end ranking!), Anna Chakvetadze, Nicole Vaidisova, and Ana Ivanovic. Of these, only Vaidisova was really obvious at the end of 2004 — except in the quality standings. With the ranking system changing in 2006 to eliminate quality points, it’s hard to know whether this ranking will retain its predictive value for future rankings, though it seems as if it would (if we could still predict it): Quality points per tournament mostly measures the ability to win big matches. So, if injuries don’t rear up, it would seem likely that both Justine Hénin-Hardenne and Mary Pierce will rise before they fall. Nathalie Déchy seems umlikely to retain her ranking. Evgenia Linetskaya ought to move up if she can get healthy. Viktoriya Kutuzova looks as if she might finally fulfill her promise, and Victoria Azarenka also seems due to rise. ’s Challenger results appear not to be flukes. But the only player who really seems to be crying out, “Ready or not, here I come” is Michaella Krajicek.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 69 Quality/Round Points Equalized: 2Q+R Per Tournament Calculated by doubling total quality points, adding round points, and dividing the sum by tournaments. The effect of this is to make, very roughly, half of the typical player’s points come from quality and half from round points. This is, in the author’s opinion, about the best way to assess players’ actual performances based solely on WTA ranking data with no manipulation based on winning percentage or surface balance.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 70 Consistency-Rewarded Rankings Logarithmic Points Award The WTA’s Best 17 ranking cares nothing for consistency — your best results count, and nothing else. The old WTA divisor ranking took consistency more into account — but big results (e.g. from Slams) still biased the result. The Consistency-Rewarded Rankings give the greatest reward to consistent players. Under this system, it’s better to make two semifinals than to win one event and lose first round in another (the reverse is true under the WTA rankings, even though reaching two semifinals requires at least as many wins). If good results help, bad results hurt. The method is as follows: One takes the natural log — in mathematical terms, ln() — of each weekly score, takes the arithmetic mean (i.e. divide by the number of events), then take the antilog, ex or exp(x). Under this system, a player who is absolutely consistent, producing the same score at every event, will get the same score as under the divisor. A less-consistent player will get a lower score — the less consistent, the lower the score. A consistency-punishing ranking is, of course, also possible — but is functionally equivalent to just ranking players according to their single highest score.. Rank Name Consist.

We do see a nice upward move by Venus Williams; observe on the other hand the hits suffered by Nathalie Déchy and Elena Likhovtseva. And of course Alicia Molik had terrible consistency: She was very good before getting sick, and very bad after.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 71 Worst 14 A simpler, though less accurate, way of measuring consistency is to simply take a player’s worst fourteen results. Instead of paying off on good results at the top, this pays off on a lack of bad results. We look only at a subset of the Highlight Players. This is offered mostly for demonstration purposes, but I would ask the real question, why is Best 14/Best 17 any better than Worst 14/17? Neither one counts all results!.

We could control for this — e.g. by taking events off the top, perhaps one event for every two events a player is short of 17 — but this is just a demonstration; you can make those adjustments if you want.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 72 Middle Half Another variation on the theme of consistency is to count half your results — but not the best half, the middle half. So if you play twelve events, we count the middle six, omitting the best three and the worst three. If your number of events is not divisible by four, we adjust appropriately. So, e.g., if you have seventeen events, half of that is 8.5. We take the seven middle events (i. e. #6-#12), and 75% of the two around that (i.e. #5 and #13). Applying this formula, we get the following: Mid Player Score # of % of pts WTA Mid Player Score # of % of pts WTA Half Trns in mid Rank Half Trns in mid Rank Rank half Rank half 1Davenport 2345 16 48% 1 26 Williams, Serena 403 10 22% 11 2 Sharapova 1888.5 15 48% 4 27 Kirilenko 380.3 26 33% 25 3 Clijsters 1830.3 17 38% 2 28 Peschke 377.5 25 36% 26 4Mauresmo 1826 19 45% 3 29 Chakvetadze 361.4 23 39% 33 5 Schnyder 1392 26 45% 7 30 Sugiyama 341.6 27 33% 30 6 Hénin-Hardenne 1186.8 9 40% 6 Farina Elia 307.3 23 32% — 7 Pierce 1171 14 31% 5 Bartoli 304.1 25 38% 40 8 Dementieva 1170 20 43% 8 Smashnova 303.5 18 41% 43 9 Petrova 1138.5 25 39% 9 Srebotnik 296.8 21 30% 28 10 Williams, Venus 848 12 32% 10 Peng 279.8 16 32% 37 11 Vaidisova 780.8 17 49% 15 Bovina 255 8 46% 62 12 Déchy 715 26 38% 12 Maleeva 237 20 36% 52 13 Hantuchova 714.8 25 46% 19 Frazier 234.8 19 37% 55 14 Myskina 690.3 19 43% 14 Medina Garrigues 226.8 26 25% 34 15 Schiavone 682 22 40% 13 Asagoe 224 25 25% 38 16 Kuznetsova 664.3 17 45% 18 Zvonareva 195.5 22 26% 42 17 Ivanovic 613.5 16 40% 16 Raymond 195.5 20 42% 76 18 Pennetta 525 24 42% 23 Zuluaga 170.8 13 41% 84 19 Golovin 515.5 22 43% 24 Linetskaya 124 19 19% 53 20 Safina 465 21 34% 20 Molik 120.5 15 12% 29 21 Grönefeld 451.8 27 32% 21 Shaughnessy 115.3 25 21% 66 22 Dulko 446.5 23 42% 27 Sprem 48 24 9% 65 23 Likhovtseva 435.5 22 29% 17 Dokic 23 10 33% 351 24 Jankovic 431.5 29 32% 22 Suárez 10.8 7 8% 232 25 Martinez 411 20 44% 32 Rubin 8.3 3 31% 546

As a measure of consistency, the higher the percentage in the middle half, the more consistent. So this measure, improbably enough, makes Vaidisova the most consistent player, followed by Davenport, Sharapova, Hantuchova, and Bovina. Least consistent is Suárez; Sprem is next (who is thus the least- consistent healthy player, at least in our sample).

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 73 Idealized Ranking Systems Idealized Rankings/Proposal 1: Surface-Modified Divisor (Minimum 16) In examining the various ranking systems used (and not used) by the Tours, one notices that each has strengths and weaknesses. The current ATP Tour system has the advantage of enforcing surface balance, but it generally ignores smaller tournaments and has no reward for beating top players. The WTA Tour system has the advantage of encouraging players to play regularly (any good result is likely to increase a player’s ranking total) but encourages overplaying, has no surface balance, and renders losses meaningless. Based on consideration, it seems to me that the following are the key features of an ideal ranking system: 1. Both wins and losses should count. 2. There should be strong rewards for quality; winning a tournament with a weak field should have relatively little value 3. There should be a minimum required number of tournaments, and incentives for playing more than the minimum should be reduced (to prevent injury) but not eliminated 4. Surfaces should be balanced — players should not be allowed to “clean up” by playing more than half their events on a particular surface. 5. The Slam Bias should be reduced (slightly) relative to the stronger tournaments such as Miami. I’ll outline three proposals. The first is closest to the current WTA system: ¥ The system is point-and-divisor based: You earn a certain number of points, and divide them by a number of tournaments. This is probably not the best mathematical model, but it is (relatively) simple. ¥ The minimum divisor should be 16 (in doubles, perhaps 12). This is larger than the divisor of 14 the WTA used in 1996, but smaller than the Best 18 used from 1998 to 2000 or the Best 17 used since 2001. ¥ The Slam Bonus should be reduced from 2 to 1.5 ¥ Quality points should be multiplied by 1.5 (Note that this, combined with the preceding point, means that quality points at Slams will be multiplied by 2.5.) ¥ The current WTA Round Point table may be retained ¥ Players should play at least a certain percentage of their events on all four surfaces: 37% on hardcourts, 11% indoors, 16% on clay, 6% on grass. (This is based on a simple calculation: I took the Top 30, found the percent they played on each surface, sorted the list for each surface, and took the percentage for player #26, rounding to the nearest percent.) This is a total of 70% of one’s schedule accounted for; the other 30% may be played on any surface. If, however, you fail to play the minimum on any given surface, your divisor will be adjusted accordingly. Example: A player plays sixteen events, but only two on clay, or 12.5%. She was supposed to play 17% on clay, meaning she should have played at least three clay events. The difference, one, is added to her divisor; she is treated as if she had played seventeen events. Note: A player cannot be penalized more than two tournaments per surface (only one for grass). ¥ If a player plays beyond the minimum of sixteen, her divisor is reduced by one third of a tournament for each additional tournament played. So, e.g., if she play seventeen tournaments, her divisor is 16.67; if she plays 19, it is 18, etc. ¥ Injured players who miss at least four months are exempt from balance requirements; their ranking is based simply on their points and number of tournaments The result of this calculation are given below. The first column, “Rank,” is the rank under this system. “Player” is self-explanatory. “# of Tourn” is the number of events the player actually played. “Qual Pts,” “Round Pts,” and “Slam Pts” are actual quality points, round points, points in Slams. Surface is events played on each surface — marked * if below the minimum “Penalty Tourns” is the number of extra events assessed for surface imbalance. “Adjust. points” is the adjusted points total — round points plus 1.5xquality points minus one fourth of Slam Points. “Adjust. # Tourn” is the adjusted tournaments played — number of actual tournaments plus penalty tournaments minus bonus tournaments. Score is what you get when you divide Adjusted Points by Adjusted # of Tournaments — the basis of the ranking. WTA Rnk is the player’s WTA rank. Hence:

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 75 Idealized Rankings/Proposal 2 — Adjusted Won/Lost The previous ranking system was based on the current WTA point table. Many of our other proposals have also been based on this. But there is nothing magic about the WTA points table — as witness the fact that it gets changed almost every year. We could also use a won/lost system. Except — a player who plays weak events may earn a much higher winning percentage than a better player who plays stronger events. Henrieta Nagyova has nine career titles because she plays a lot of Tier IV tournaments. had none, in part, because in her heyday she played mostly Tier II and up. Kournikova was the better player (even in 2003, with Kournikova in her final decline, she beat Nagyova 6Ð 1 6–2), but the Russian doesn’t have the titles, or the winning percentage, to prove it. So if we are to base our system on winning percentage, we must somehow adjust for tournament strength. And we also need to account for wins over top players. And we need to encourage players to play more, within reason. We can do all that. To accomplish the first, we simply diddle with the values of wins: If we define a win at a Tier I or Tier II as being “one standard win,” then a win at a Slam might be 1.1 SWs (for this purpose, we’ll count the year-end championship as a Slam), and a win at a Tier III only 0.8, and a win at a Tier IV a mere 0.6. To account for wins over top players, we assign bonus wins. In our system, a top four player gets you an extra .6 wins. Beating a player ranked #5-#10 is worth .4. Beating #11-#20 gets you .2. And a win over #21- #35 is worth .1. To encourage players to play more, we do two things: First, we require you to play sixteen events, and add losses until you do (except for injured players). And second — and this is the key part — we reduce losses exponentially. Instead of calculating raw wins and losses, we take losses to the .8 power. What this means is that if two players have the same winning percentage, but one has played more, the one who has played more will have a slightly higher adjusted winning percentage. Not much — losses still count! But enough to make it worth playing more if it doesn’t drag your results down. Note: Withdrawals and walkovers do not count as wins or losses. We calculate only a limited list of players, because this ranking is work and would require significant reprogramming by the WTA staff to use as “the” ranking system. In assessing the results, we ask that you remember: This system isn’t designed to look anything like the WTA rankings; it’s a completely different way of looking at the data. You should not look at the results but rather the method. If you approve of the method, then be open to the results. If you don’t accept the method — well, we are generally as surprised by the results as you are. The columns in the table are as follows: Rnk: Player’s rank under this system. Player Name: Just what it says. #Trn: The number of tournaments the player played. Slam W, L: Wins and losses in Slams. Tier I/II W, L: Wins and losses in Tier I and Tier II tournaments. Tier III W, L: Wins and losses in Tier III events. Tier IV+ W, L: Wins and losses in Tier IV and Challenger events. Adj. Wins: Adjusted winning total based on the formula above (i.e. a Slam win counts as 1.1, etc.) Bon Wins: Bonus wins as a result of victories over top players. Pen Loss: Penalty losses assessed for not playing the full 16 events. Tot Wins: Total wins as calculated, i.e. Adjusted wins plus Bonus Wins. Adj Los: Adjusted losses as calculated, i.e. total actual losses plus penalty losses raised to the .8 power. Adj Wi%: Adjusted winning percentage: Tot Wins divided by the quantity total wins plus adj. losses, expressed as a percent. Note, however, that this is not a true percentage; while the minimum is zero, the bonus wins man it’s not directly based on won/lost — though the maximum value does not exceed 100%. And so, without further ado, the actual numbers:

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 77 Idealized Rankings/Proposal 3 — Success against Strength of Field One of the big problems with the WTA rankings — one which will only get worse in 2006 — is the fact that the large majority of points awarded are round points, and round points don’t in any way reflect the strength of the field. Surely winning in a tough field should be worth more than winning in a weak field! The ideal approach to this is something like the ELO rankings used in chess, which takes into account the exact opponents you face. But this system is both complex and hard to explain. We can at least produce a bastardized version. We’ll just measure success, in a primitive way, against strength of field, based on the Modified TSI data on page 150. We will combine this with a variant on the WTA points table. In the WTA system, whatever the value of a tournament, you earn 70% of that number of points for reaching the final, 45% for reaching the semifinal, 25% for reaching the quarterfinal, etc. So at a Slam, where the winner earns 650 points, the finalist gets 650x.70=455 points (which the WTA managed to round to 456). A semifinalist earns 650x.45=292.5 points (rounded to 292). Etc. So what we will do is this. We will take the Modified TSI of each event, then multiply based on the round reached, using this table derived from the WTA’s: Win 1.00 Round of 16 .14 Qualifier (add to above) .04 Final .70 Round of 32 .09 Qualifying final .02 Semifinal .45 Round of 64 .05 Qualifying second round .01 Quarterfinal .25 Opening round loss, any level .0 We then add up the results, divide by the number of tournaments, and, well see what comes out. For example, Kim Clijsters played seventeen events this year: Antwerp QF, Indian Wells W, etc.. Antwerp had a strength of 54.5, and Clijsters made the quarterfinal. So she gets .545 times .25, or .14. Indian Wells had a MTSI of 79.8, and Clijsters won, so she gets .798 times 1.00, or .798. And so forth. We add all these up, then divide by the number of tournaments. In the case of Clijsters, that’s 164.1 divided by 6, or 27.4. As for where that puts her — well, see below. Note: Some tournaments have a MTSI below 10%; a number have a MTSI of 0. We are putting a “floor” of 10% on the MTSI values (.07 for Challengers), so that all tournaments are worth something. At the year- end Championships, we arbitrarily assign a value of .20 for each win. An Olympic bronze is worth .56. This is another tricky statistic, so we do the final Top 30 and only a handful of others..

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 79 Idealized Rankings Summarized The previous three rankings are all based on different calculation methods, so it is arguable that their consensus is a still better ranking. It turns out that only 18 different players are Top 15 in any of the three rankings — Clijsters, Davenport, Dementieva, Hénin-Hardenne, Mauresmo, Myskina, Petrova, Pierce, Schaivone, Schnyder, Sharapova, and Venus Williams are Top 15 in all three systems; Ivanovic, Vaidisova, and Serena Williams in two; Karatantcheva, Kuznetsova, and Molik in one each. How to combine the rankings? One option is to take the median, with any ranking above #15 counted arbitrarily as #20. For the players with only one Top 15 ranking, I have taken the median of that ranking and 20.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 80 Percentage of Possible Points Earned Tournaments differ in their “richness.” A win at a Slam, for instance, is worth twice as much as a win in an equivalent round of a Tier I. A player who plays mostly “rich” tournaments, such as Slams and Tier I events, will therefore earn more points than a player who has the same number of wins in lesser tournaments. We can control for this by comparing a player’s actual score with the expected results at given tournaments. For these purposes, we must find expected values for each type of tournaments. I estimate as follows: ¥ Slam: 1000 (650 round points + 350 quality points = 7 rounds * 25 pts/round *2 slam bonus) ¥ Los Angeles Championship: 760 (485 round points + 225 qual points = 5 rounds * 55 pts/round) ¥ 96 draw [Tier I] — Miami, Indian Wells: 505 (325 round points + 180 qual points = 6 rounds * 30 pts/round) ¥ 56-Draw Tier I (=Charleston, Berlin, Rome, Canadian Open): 450 (300 round points + 150 qual points = 5 rounds * 30 pts/round) ¥ 28-Draw Tier I (=Pan Pacific, Zürich, Moscow): 428 (300 round points + 128 qual points = 4 rounds * 32 pts/round) ¥ Tier II: 327 (195 round points + 132 qual points = 4 rounds * 33 pts/round) [includes Olympics] ¥ Tier III: 208 (120 round points + 88 qual points = 4 rounds * 22 pts/round) ¥ Tier IV: 155 (95 round points for Tier IV + 60 qual points = 5 rounds * 12 pts/round) ¥ Challenger: 60 points (very approximate, since Challengers vary, but it hardly matters) Note that the above point totals are approximations, based on the examination of several tournament fields, and is what one could typically expect to earn at such an event. Actual tournament winners will not earn this precise amount; the Tier II events in particular vary widely. It is, of course, possible to calculate the maximum number of points a player could earn for any given tournament — but this is actually an unfair gauge, because chances are that a particular player will not play all her highest-round opponents. And this is not under the player’s own control. Based on these numbers, we can calculate an approximate figure for the number of points a player could have earned based on her schedule. This is the “Possible Points” field. The “Actual Points” is what the player actually earned in these events (note that this does not match a player’s WTA ranking total, because all events count). The column after that, “Percent,” shows the percent of her possible points a player earned. The final column, “average richness,” is simply the possible points divided by the number of tournaments. This shows how strong a player’s schedule is. Justine Hénin-Hardenne for instance, played only nine tournaments — but they included three Slams, which are obviously “rich,” so she played the richest schedule of any player. Also having scheduled with “richness” figures in excess of 550 are Pierce, Sharapova, and Serena Williams (last year’s strength leader); such strong schedules probably should not be allowed. The key figure, though, is “percent” — this is the calculation which shows how well a player lived up to expectations. In this category, Davenport is the leader at 56.2%, barely edging Clijsters at 56.0%; this is effectively equal to 2004’s leader Hénin-Hardenne at 56.1% — but none of those figures is all that impressive; in 2003, Serena Williams was at 84% earned, and she had 86% in 2002; Hénin-Hardenne herself was at 72% in 2003. It shows you how bad a year Serena had that she was down all the way to 32%. It’s interesting to note how “democratic” this has all become; in 2004, we had two players (Henin- Hardenne, Davenport) over 50%, and four more (Mauresmo, Clijsters, Serena, Myskina) over 40%, with 11 total players at 25% or more. By contrast, in 2003, we had three players over 60% (Serena, 84%; Hénin- Hardenne, 72%; Clijsters, 68%), but only one other over 40% (Venus, 53%) and a total of 7 players over 25%. In 2002, we had two players over 60% (Serena, 86%, Venus, 62%), five over 40%, and nine over 25%; in 2001, we have two players over 60% (Venus, 65%; Davenport, 63%); six over 40%, and ten over 25%; in 2000, Venus had 80%, Hingis 68%, five players exceeded 40%, and seven were over 25%.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 82 Head to Head/Results against Top Players The Top 20 Head to Head The table below shows how the Top 20 fared against each other in 2005. For completeness, more players are shown on the vertical axis, although only the Top 20 can be listed across the top for space reasons. Reading the Table: For space reasons, the names of the Top 20 players have been abbreviated in the column headings. Scores are meant to be read across the rows. So, e.g., if you look down the column headed DAVENPO(rt) and the row labelled Clijsters, you will see the notation “1-2.” This means that Davenport and Clijsters played three times (1+2=3), with Clijsters winning one and Davenport two.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 83 Wins Over Top Players Matches Played/Won against the (Final) Top Twenty This table summarizes how players did against the players who would constitute the final Top Twenty. (Note that, for the players ranked in the Top Twenty, the total number of opponents they could face is 19.) The final column,% of wins against Top 20, calculates the fraction of a player’s wins earned against the Top Twenty — a measure of the difficulty one faced to earn those wins.We note that the leader in this category Davenport at 48%, then Pierce, with Clijsters and Mauresmo nearly tied for third; Peschke and Kirilenko are last. Davenport and Schnyder played the most different Top 20 opponents (17); Clijsters beat the most different opponents (14). Schnyder managed the less promising feat of losing to the most different Top 20 players (12) and having the most Top 20 losses (21) Distinct Distinct Distinct Top 20 Top 20 Top 20 Total Total Total % of wins Player WTA Opponents Players Players Top 20 Top 20 Wins, all against Name Rank Played Beaten Lost To Victories Losses opponents Top 20 Clijsters 2 15 14 7 27 8 65 42% Davenport 1 17 13 7 28 9 58 48% Déchy 12 12585134013% Dementieva 8 12 7 9 10 15 40 25% Dulko 27 103737329% Farina Elia — 11484102417% Golovin 24 11394123312% Grönefeld 21 12494124010% Hantuchova 19 11 3 10 4 15 37 11% Hénin-Hardenne 6 11 10 3 14 3 34 41% Ivanovic 16 10666114015% Jankovic 22 13 2 11 2 14 36 6% Kirilenko 25 1029213435% Kuznetsova 18 11494112914% Likhovtseva 17 9363103010% Martinez 32 13 3 11 3 15 28 11% Mauresmo 3 16 11 10 22 13 53 42% Molik 29 836461724% Myskina 14 1029311349% Pennetta 23 82638388% Peschke 26 717112442% Petrova 9 13 8 11 8 17 56 14% Pierce 5 16 13 7 19 10 41 46% Safina 20 83739368% Schiavone 13 12777114018% Schnyder 7 17 9 12 12 21 58 21% Sharapova 4 14 11 9 14 11 53 26% Srebotnik 28 92828385% Sugiyama 30 837393110% Vaidisova 15 13 4 10 4 10 45 9% Williams, Serena 11 982832138% Williams,Venus 10 10 9 4 11 5 34 32% Zvonareva 42 835352114%

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 85 Won/Lost Versus the Top Players (Based on Final Rankings) The following table shows each player’s won/lost record against the Top 10, against the Second 10 (#11- #20), and against the Top 20 as a whole, based on final rankings. Note: This is not the same as the players’ wins over Top 10/Top 20 players, given in the previous table. What is shown here is the player’s record against the women who ended the year in the Top 10/Top 20. At the time of the matches, some of these women will not have been at their final ranks. On the other hand, it could be argued that this is a better measure of success against top players — a player who ends 2004 at #2 (e.g. Clijsters) had a better 2005 than a player who began the year at #5 but ended it outside the Top Fifteen (Kuznetsova), and a win against the player with the higher final rank should therefore mean more. The player with the best (worst) record in each category is shown in bold.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 87 How They Earned Their Points The following tables evaluate the manner in which players earn points, breaking them up, e.g., by points earned on each surface, points earned from quality versus round points, points earned in Slams.... In assessing the first table, Fraction of Points Earned in Slams, note that the Top 25 collectively earned 58305.5 points in 2005 (total actual points; the total of their Best 17 scores is of course somewhat lower), down from 58516.5 points in 2004 but still slightly more than the 58028.25 points in 2003; the figure was 58524.25 points in 2002 and 57459 points in 2001. (But, given the point inflation on the WTA, this actually means that they decreased their fraction of total points earned from 2001 to 2005.). Of the points earned in 2005, 20336, or 34.9%, were earned in Slams — the record for recent years;. In 2004, 19088, or 32.6%, were earned at Slams; in 2003, the figure was 33.5%; in 2002, it was 30.9% in 2002; in 2001, before the Great Slam Inflation, the figure was a mere 28.6%. The mean of the fraction of points earned in the Slams in 2005 is 32.8% (that is, this is the average of the players’ fractions); it was 32.0% in 2004. The median is Myskina’s 31.4%; last year, the median was 28.5%. The extremes are Safina’s minimum of 9% and Serena’s maximum of 76% — a much wider range than in 2004, when the extremes were 13% and 58%, but not far from the 2003 extremes of 10% and 74%. The next table is Quality Versus Round Points. Generally speaking, the higher the fraction of points one earns from quality, the better one is at pulling off “upsets.” This is especially true of lower-ranked players — top-ranked players have fewer opportunities to earn quality points. For Comparison: The Top 25, as noted above, earned an actual total of 58305.5 points in 2005. 19704 of these, or 33.8%, came from quality. This is slightly up from 2004, when the numbers were 58516.5, 19617, 33.5% from quality. It remains below the historical average, though: in 2003, 34.8% of the top players’ points came from quality; in 2002, it was 35.1%, and 35.4% in 2001. The median quality percentage for the Top 25 is slightly higher: the median player, Grönefeld, picked up 33.9% of her points from quality (though over 20% of those points came from one win over Davenport). The mean of the percentage from quality was lower, however, 33.5%. Of all the players I tested, only one had more than half her points from quality: Suárez earned 51.5% of her points based on the players she beat. Of the Top 25, the leader was Ivanovic, with 41.2%. Of the Top 50, six players were over 40%: Peng (41.2%), Ivanovic (41.2%), Dushevina (41.1%), Peschke (40.5%), Serena (40.2%), and Vinci (40.1%). I didn’t test many players below that, but Linetskaya was at 40.5%. The freakiest case of quality points, however, may belong to Craybas: 39.6% of her points were from quality, and over a third of those came from her win over Serena Williams at Wimbledon. 15% of her points come just from the quality points from that result. The lowest rate of anyone I tested, apart from the special case of Hingis, came from Kuznetsova, who earned only 23.5% of her points from quality. No other player tested was below 25%; Zvonareva was next at 25.1%. The final table, Percentage of Points Earned on Each Surface, assesses surface balance. The first four numbers in this table (% on hard, clay, grass, indoor) should be fairly self-explanatory: They represent the fraction of each player’s points that she earned on the particular surface. The last column, RMS, is perhaps less clear. This is an attempt to assess a player’s balance. RMS, for Root Mean Square, measures the player’s distance from the mean. The smaller the RMS value, the more “typical” a player is. Thus, Tatiana Golovin was the most balanced player in the Top 25; Amy Frazier was also very balanced; Maria Sharapova and Lindsay Davenport were next. The least balanced player in the list is Justine Hénin-Hardenne, with her heavy bias toward clay, followed by Bovina (who of course lost tournaments to injury), Smashnova (another clay fan), and Serena Williams (who is heavy on hardcourts). The median deviation for the Top 25 is .22; for the Top 30, it is .23. So a player with a deviation of less than .22 is relatively balanced; one with a deviation above this is relatively unbalanced. For Reference: For the Top 25 as a whole, 44.9% of all points were earned on hardcourts (compared to 45.8% in 2004 and 41.1% in 2003), 21.4% on clay (22.7% in 2004), 10.4% on grass (10.1% in 2004), and 23.2% indoors (21.4% in 2004).

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 93 Consistency We often speak of a player’s “consistency,” but the term does not really have a clear definition. We can offer some models, however. Standard Deviation of Scores by Tournament One measure of a player’s consistency is the standard deviation of a player’s results over the tournaments she plays. The following list expresses a player’s consistency by dividing the standard deviation of her score by the mean score. In mathematical parlance, if the player’s scores are s1, s2, … sn, then the number given here is given by the formula (shown here in two forms):

STDDEV(s1, s2, … sn) s(s1, s2, … sn) ------MEAN(s1, s2, … sn) m(s1, s2, … sn)

Thus (for the mathematicians out there), this is not actually the standard deviation; it has been normalized by dividing by the mean. Note: This is not a ranking system, either; it is a measure of consistency. A player who loses in the second round of every tournament is more consistent (consistently bad) than a player who wins half of her tournaments and loses early in the other half — but the player who wins the tournaments will have, and probably deserve, a higher ranking. In the list below, the lower the score, the more consistent the player is. I have not “ranked” the players, lest this be confused with a ranking scheme. Still, we note that the most consistent players are Sharapova, Vaidisova, Davenport, and (improbably enough) Bovina; the least consistent are Serena Williams, Suárez, Sprem, and Molik. An obvious example of a player who is very bad but consistent is Dokic; she is the second-lowest-ranked player in the sample, and the worst in per-tournament results — but her 1.10 consistency score is slightly below (i.e. more consistent than) the median of 1.12.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 94 Fraction of Points Earned in Biggest Win In general, the lower this number, the more consistent a player has been, as she did not use one freak result to significantly change her result. The table shows the point value of the player’s biggest win, what percentage of her (total) points this represents, what her score would have been without this win, where she would have stood in the rankings without that win (some years, some players would keep their rankings even without the Big Win. Not this time), and what the win was. Note: A “big win” does not constitute the result that took a player deepest into a tournament, but the result worth the most points. Not too surprisingly, Serena Williams had the biggest Big Win Percent — more than half her points! Pennetta and Schnyder are lowest.

The following table shows how many first- round (correctly, opening-round) losses each player had, followed by other early-round losses (defined, arbitrarily, as cases where she earned 50 or fewer points). Note: Players who go 0Ð3 at the Los Angeles Championships are only in the “other early losses” column; technically they don’t qualify even for that since a first round loss is worth 67 points, but still, they didn’t win.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 96 From the above we can compile a lists of first-round losses. Note that a lower number is better.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 97 We can also calculate the rate of first round losses — the fraction of events in which each player lost her opener. It’s worth noting that, under the WTA ranking system, it’s not unusual for a player to lose her opener in roughly half her events and still end up in the Top 30!

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 107 Best and Worst “Worst Losses” In the tables below, the list on the left shows, in order based on badness of loss, the worst single loss for our highlight players based on the ranking at the time (the same figure used in the previous table). Both the opponent’s ranking at the time and her final ranking are shown. The column on the right ranks losses based on the opponent’s final ranking.

Martinez’s longest losing streak of 2005 was the three match streak cited, but counting events in 2004, she started the year with a five match losing streak: San Diego 2004 R16, Olympics 1R, U. S. Open 1R, Sydney 2005 1R, Australian Open 1R. Ironic that she followed that with her longest winning streak since 2000. 2. Formally, Peschke had an 8-match winning streak in Tour Year 2005, but the wins were all in fact in 2004: Deuville $50K win, Poitiers SF. her longest streak at the WTA main draw level was 3, at the Linz SF and the Wimbledon R16 3. Pierce did in fact have a two-match losing streak in 2004-2005: Quebec City 2004 QF, Australian Open 2005 1R. This was Pierce’s only first round loss of 2005 4. Going back to 2004, Rubin had a four match losing streak starting 2005: U. S. Open 2004 3R, Bail 2R, Strasbourg 2005 1R, Roland Garros Q1R 5. As far as we can tell, Sharapova is the first player in WTA history to have back-to-back losses without suffering an opening round loss in the course of the year — indeed, she won at least two matches at every tournament she played except Moscow. Whatever that says. 6. Counting losses in 2004, Shaughnessy had four streaks of three or more losses; she started 2005 with two straight defeats 7. Counting losses in 2004, Sprem had four streaks of three or more losses; she started 2005 with two straight defeats 8. In addition to her four losses at the beginning of 2005, Suárez had two losses at the end of 2004, giving her six straight losses before she finally won. It is probably not coincidecne that her first win came in her first clay match. 9. In addition to her four losses at the beginning of 2005, Sugiyama had a loss at the end of 2004, giving her five straight losses before she finally won. 10. Counting losses in 2004, Zvonareva had four streaks of three or more losses, and the 2004Ð2005 streak involved five losses though only three events: She lost the Philadelphia final, lost all three of her matches at the Los Angeles Championships, and then lost first round at Sydney, her first event of 2005.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 112 Number of Significant Results For our purposes, define a “significant result” as one which earns a player at least 100 points. The following table shows the number of significant results for top players. So, e.g., the figure in the “100+ Points” column is the number of the player’s events in which she earned 100+ points; similarly in the “200+ Points” column. We note that Schnyder, of all people, is tied with Clijsters for the lead in number of 100+ results, with 14; Davenport, Dementieva, and Mauresmo tied for third. Clijsters, however, leads in the percentage of 100+ results (14/17), followed by Davenport and Sharapova. Turning to 200+ point results, Davenport has the lead with 12, followed by Mauresmo (10), Sharapova (9), Clijsters (7), and Pierce (6); this goes far toward explaining why Davenport, and not Clijsters, is the WTA #1.Davenport’s 75% rate of 200+ results leads the Tour, followed by Sharapova, Hénin-Hardenne, Mauresmo, and Pierce; Clijsters is a mere #6 in this regard. There is a three-way tie for most 400+ point results, with Clijsters, Pierce, and Sharapova having four. Davenport, Hénin-Hardenne, and Mauresmo have three each, and no one else has more than two. Hénin- Hardenne has the highest rate of 400+ results, with 3/9 (33%); Pierce’s 4/14 (29%) is good for second, and Sharapova’s 4/15 (27%) is third. Every player in the Top 30 had at least one 100+ point result; indeed, every one exccept Sugiyama had at least three. Perhaps the most interesting result among lower-ranked players is Peng’s: she had two 200+ results, and no other 100+ point scores. On the evidence, she is a player with plenty of talent and a real need to learn how to harness it.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 114 Points Per Quarter For those who want trends, we can also determine how well players did in each part of the year. In the lists which follow, quarters are reckoned based on when a tournament ends. So, e.g., Wimbledon began in June but ended in July; its points are counted toward the July total. Players are ranked in order of points per tournament. A player in italics is one with too few tournaments in the quarter for the result to be considered entirely meaningful. Experience shows that there is almost always a big gap, somewhere around #11 or #12, in points per tournament scores in each quarter (note, e.g., the gap between Déchy and Peng in the first quarter); I’ve generally listed enough players to show the gap.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 116 Most Consistent over Four Quarters The data in the previous section allows us to calculate another consistency ranking, based on who had the best results from quarter to quarter. All told, 20 different players ended in the Top Bunch in at least one quarter, though only four (Clijsters, Davenport, Mauresmo, and Sharapova) made it in all four quarters (a fairly typical number; there were four such in 2004 and 2002, though fully six in 2003; Davenport and Mauresmo are the only players to have managed it in both 2004 and 2005 — both, in fact, made it in 2003, 2004, and 2005, and they were the only two players to repeat in 2003Ð2004 as well as this year). In the list below, I have added up the player’s per-quarter score for each of the four quarters. Lowest is best, i.e. most consistent. Players not in the quarterly list in any given quarter are assigned an arbitrary value of 15 (meaning, obviously, that the maximum possible score is 60), but a player must make the list for at least one quarter to be listed. Injuries being what they are, this is a long way from perfect., but it is at least indicative. In 2003, this was nearly identical to the WTA rankings, but in 2004 the two lists were quite different; this year, we have the same Top Two, but increasing divergences below that — though, interestingly, this list includes the entire WTA Top 20 except for #19 Hantuchova, and the only non-Top 20 player to make it is Molik..

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 117 Slam Results From the standpoint of difficulty, the Slams are overrated. Slam results, e.g., are worth twice as much as the results of Tier I events, even though Tier I events are played in a shorter time against a tougher field (to win Rome, a player must win five or six matches in seven days, with every opponent probably in the Top Fifty; to win Roland Garros requires seven matches in no less than twelve days, with probably at least two opponents outside the Top Fifty). Still, they are the events people remember, and so deserve some separate consideration. The following summarizes the top players’ slam results. The column, “Total Opponent Rank” adds up the rankings of one’s opponents. The next column divides this by the number of matches played. The lower this number, the tougher the average opponent was (note: Players ranked outside the Top 100 have been calculated as “100”). It is not properly a scheme for ranking; it simply calculated how tough, overall, the players’ draw was. Because there is so much data here, we obviously need some analysis. The player with the most Slam wins was Davenport, with 20; she led last year also, with 17 (Mauresmo also had 17 in 2004), but the American’s 2005 total is not particularly high; Justine Hénin-Hardenne had 24 Slam wins in 2003, Venus Williams had 22 in 2002, and Capriati had 24 in 2001; the last time someone other than Davenport led the Tour with a total as low as 20 was in 2000, when Hingis led the Tour with 20, Second place this year went to Sharapova, with 19; Venus Williams, Pierce, and Petrova were tied for third, with 16; Mauresmo had 15. Kim Clijsters ended up with only 13, tying her with Déchy and Likhovtseva for the #8 spot. The lowest win total for a Top 20 player was Safina’s three; Sugiyama’s two was the lowest for a Top 30 player. Slam winning percentave is a different matter: Clijsters leads at 87%, Serena Williams is at 86%, Venus Williams 84%; Hénin-Hardenne and Davenport are tied for fourth at 83%. We note that only two of the top five — Davenport and Venus — played all four Slams to completion. At the low end, we have the same “leaders” as in total wins: Safina has the worst record in the Top 20, Sugiyama the worst in the Top 30. In terms of points per Slam, ironically, the top two are players who didn’t win a Slam: Davenport is first with exactly 500 points per Slam; Pierce is a very close second with 497. Serena is third at 471, followed by Clijsters at 429 and Venus at 422; HeninÐHardenne and Sharapova are also just above 400, and then there is a huge gap to Dementieva at 256 and Mauresmo at 249. The continued levelling of the Tour shows also in the Top Ten wins: Pierce’s five led the Tour, and no one else had more than three. Last year, the leader (Dementieva) also had five, but the #2 player (Myskina) had four. In 2003, Hénin-Hardenne had seven and Serena six.. In terms of average opponents, we can’t see much that is revealing. Pierce’s schedule was amazingly tough. It’s easy to understand why Kveta Peschke wants to get seeded at the Slams in 2006; she was second despite not going very deep at the Slams (which is the usual cause of having a tough schedule: The deeper you go, the more top players you face). Elena Bovina played only one Slam, and ended up with a tough schedule as a result. Davenport was fourth, Chakvetadze fifth, Sharapova sixth. We note that both Clijsters and Mauresmo had things relatively easy. (In very round numbers, a player whose score is less than 50 had a tough schedule; 50-60 is in the middle; a number above 60 indicates relatively soft draws.) Holding up the low end are Raymond, Zvonareva, Dulko, Koukalova, Bartoli, and Kirilenko; the easiest schedules for Top 20 players went to Kuznetsova, Myskina, and Hantuchova.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 119 Surface Rankings Most of our ratings to this point have been “overall” ratings, regardless of surface. However, players do most definitely have preferred surfaces. We may therefore compute “surface rankings.” The following tables show how the highlight players did on each surface. Some other players have been added when their results warrant it. Results are listed in order of points per tournament on each surface. It is effectively certain that some players outside the Top 25 have exceeded some of the lower Top 25 players on certain surfaces (especially grass). I have noted these players where I have been aware of them, but have not checked this for all players.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 134 Adjusted Points Per Tournament on Grass A blatant difficulty with grass is that so many players play only Wimbledon. This seriously biases their per-tournament results, because Slams are so point-heavy. A player who wins Eastbourne and reaches the Wimbledon semifinal will probably wind up with a lower divisor score than a player who plays only Wimbledon and reaches the semifinal. Yet surely the first player has at least as much right to be considered a top grass player! We didn’t have such a situation this year, but there was something similar in 2004. To attempt to compensate for this, we produce an adjusted grass ranking, setting a minimum divisor of 1.7. This reduces the bias for those who play only Wimbledon, while still making it more important than other grass results. Using this adjusted ranking gives us the following: Grass Rank Player Name Grass Pts Adj. Grass Trn Adj Points/Tourn 1V.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 140 All-Surface Players The above us to produce a sort of a pseudo-ranking for “best all-surface player.” For this we add up a player’s ranking on all four surfaces based on points per tournament, taking only the Top 20 on each surface. Players not in the Top 20 on a given surface are assigned an arbitrary score of 24. (Note: Because of the shortness of the grass season, grass scores have been divided in half, rounding down, and a maximum value of 12 has been used. Also, the adjusted grass scores have been used) Note that this is not a measure of who is better on all surfaces; it measures who has been an all-surface player this year. Players with the maximum score of 84 of have not been listed. It should be noted that any score in excess of about 65 is likely to indicate a single-surface specialist — or perhaps, these days, a player who is injured. All told, 35 players are in the Top 20 on at least one surface. Only nine — Clijsters, Davenport, Dementieva, Kuznetsova, Mauresmo, Petrova, Pierce, Sharapova, and Venus Williams — are Top 20 on all surfaces, and Kuznetsova just barely; she’s #20 on hardcourt. We observe the advantage of balance in this ranking: The Top Eight players in the list are all four-surface players, with Kuznetsova the only four-surface player to end up behind a non-four-surface player. Top 20 on three surfaces are Ivanovic (missing grass), Myskina (missing clay), Pennetta (missing hard), Schnyder (missing grass), and Srebotnik (who, incredibly, is missing clay, which is her best surface!)

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 141 Tournament Wins by Surface Here are the number of tournaments each player won on the various surfaces. As elsewhere, tournaments are divided into Major (Tier II and up; note that this does not mean “Slam,” which is how some use the term) and Minor (Tier III and below). The final column lists the number of surfaces on which a player won tournaments.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 142 Assorted Statistics The Busiest Players on the Tour Total Tour Matches Played by Top Players The table on the next page shows how the Top 50, and certain other busy players, ranked in total matches played. Note that this does not correlate closely with ranking or with tournaments played; Clijsters is near the top of the list of matches played because she plays relatively little but wins a lot; Schnyder is #1 because she wins fairly often and plays a reasonably heavy schedule, and Craybas is fairly high because she wins relatively little but plays a ton. This seemingly-odd mix is in fact fairly typical. In 2002, the Top 25 player with the most matches was Jelena Dokic, with 79, followed by Anastasia Myskina, with 77 — two players who, at the time, had absurd schedules and moderate success. In 2003, that changed, with the biggest totals scored not by the insane overplayers (the top play- everything-in-sight player was Elena Dementieva, #3 in the matches list, who played 27 events in 2003). Rather, our top two in matches played that year were the top two players, Clijsters and Hénin-Hardenne. That was the first time since 2000 (when #1 Martina Hingis led the Tour with 87 matches) that the top player in matches was Top Two in the rankings. In 2004, though, we returned to having busy players top the list: Iveta Benesova had 84 matches, the most of any player we checked, and Vera Zvonareva led the Top 25 with 79, followed by Svetlana Kuznetsova with 77, and WTA #1 Davenport was third with 72. This year, the pattern is similar: Patty Schnyder and Nadia Petrova are at the low end of the Top Ten, but are first and second with 83 and 78 matches, followed by Kim Clijsters with 74. Historically, there appears to be no general pattern — except that, when there is no dominant player, as this year, the play-everything-that-moves types tend do dominate in matches played. Note: The “ordinal” in the list below represents where the player stands in the overall list of the 64 players checked. The number in [] represents where a Top 25 player stands among the Top 25 in matches played — e.g. Grönefeld is tied for #8 in the main list, but she is #7 among the Top 25 players, so her Ordinal reads 8 [7], meaning #8 overall, #7 among the Top 25. A simple test shows us that the correlation coefficient between ranking and matches played is -.13. Given that we have only 25 data points, that’s no correlation at all. (Correlation coefficients range from a minimum of -1 to a maximum of 1, with 1 — or -1 — representing a close relationship and 0 a complete lack or relatiionship.) We can also show this with a graph.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 144 Total Tour Events Played by the Top 150 The table on the next page sorts the Top 150 (as of November 14, 2005) based on events played in the past year. All players who have played that many events are listed, along with their rankings (in parentheses). Top 25 players are shown in bold. The second column shows how many players played each number of events. All told, the Top 150 played 3403 events in 2005, slightly down from 3419 events in 2004. That’s not much change from last year, but sharply down from 2003, when the Top 150 played 3568 events. The total was 3540 events in 2002, 3434 events in 2001. Evidently the injury problem is starting to get to everyone; we’re down more than an event and a half per player from 2003. This even though the maximum events has gone up: Müller this year has 34, but the leader last year was 32 (played, it is true, by five different players; this year, Müller is the only player with more than 31, and Bohmova is the only other player with more than 30). In 2003, Grandin and Vakulenko led the Tour with 34 tournaments. In 2002, and Lubomira Kurhajcova had 34 events; in 2002, reached that figure. The busiest player in the Top 50 this year is Craybas, with 30 (though she will not be Top 50 in 2005). Marrero, with 31 events, led the Top 50 in 2004; in 2003, Dokic and Pisnik had 30. The median this year is 23 events; in 2004, the median was 24. The most typical result is also down — and sharply. In 2003, 14 players played 26 events. In 2004, that fell to 25, again played by 14 players. But this year, the most popular schedule is only 22 events, played by 17 players. The chart below shows the popularity of the various schedules

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 146 The Strongest Tournaments Theoretically, all tournaments of the same tier are of equal difficulty. In reality, it’s not even close. Tournaments like Filderstadt and San Diego (before it expanded to a 56-draw) are so strong that, in some years, Top Ten players can go unseeded, while Eastbourne 2002 didn’t feature a single Top Five player. In general, we can assume that all Slams and the year-end Championships are at maximum strength; with minor exceptions, everyone who can play will play. This is not true of Tier I and Tier II tournaments (other than Miami). Experience shows that, overall, certain tournaments are guaranteed to be strong: the Slams, the Championships, Miami, San Diego, Filderstadt. It’s much harder to decide which tournaments are next. There is no simple way of “rating” tournaments; it is not a statistic the WTA calculates (and never will, because it reveals the problem of a round points-based ranking system). The sections below offer three proposals, each with advantages and disadvantages (the latter derived both from the systems themselves and from the fact that they are based on WTA rankings). Tournament Strength Based on the Four Top Players Present Proposal #1: This is a two-part ranking, strength and depth. For the strength, take the total rankings of the top four players present. Add to this the scores of the top two present. (That is, count the top two twice and the #3 and #4 players once.) This gives an indication of just how tough things are when “the going gets tough”: it shows what you can expect to be up against in the semifinal and final rounds. For example, the top four players at Gold Coast in 2005 were Petrova, ranked #12; Schnyder, ranked #14; Sugiyama, #17; and Sprem, #18. So the total “value” of this tournament is 12+12+14+14+17+18=87. The lower this number (the minimum value is 13), the stronger the event. To calculate the depth, we look at the seeds #1-#3 and seeds #6Ð#8 (or, correctly, the top three players and the players whose rankings would entitle them to the last three seeds based on the current rankings; for events with more than 32 players, use seeds #14Ð#16). Sum the values for the bottom three, subtract the sum of the value for the top three, and divide by three (six if there are more than eight seeds). The smaller the result, the deeper the tournament, as the difference between top and bottom seeds is smallest. Again taking Gold Coast, the top seeds were ranked 12, 14, and 17; the bottom three seeds were ranked #21, #24, and #25. So the depth of Gold Coast is defined by [(21+24+25)-(12+14+17]/3 = (70-43)/3 = 27/3 = 9.0. Based on that, we rate the tournaments on the Tour as follows (sorted by strength). Note: Tournaments below Tier II shown in italics. The general coherence of the WTA’s Tier system is shown by the fact that the weakest Tier II (Warsaw) is as strong as the strongest Tier III (Birmingham).

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 148 The Top Tournaments Based on Top Players Present — Method 1 Proposal #2: The following table assesses tournaments based on the top players who play. It starts with tournaments played by the #1 player, and lists the number of other Top Ten players present. Then it lists tournaments headlined by #2, etc. Only tournaments from Tier II up are listed. The difficulty with this system is that a tournament with (say) four Top Ten players headed by the #5 player might be considered stronger than a tournament with only one Top Ten player, but that one player being #2. Frankly, it’s a rather weak way of rating tournaments (is Stanford, with only two Top Ten players but that one being #1 in the world, really stronger than Miami, which had eight though it lacked #1?) but it makes it easy to look up who was at the top of the field.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 149 The Top Tournaments Based on Top Players Present — Method 2 Proposal #3: This method combines the above with the “Tournament Strength Index” proposed by Geert Calliauw. The Tournament Strength Index calculates the total quality points available for the top eight seeds, and calculates this as a fraction of the possible quality points if all of the Top Eight played. My modified version uses the same calculation, but counts only Top 25 players. (This is a change from 2002, when only Top Ten players counted; the purpose is to allow us to assess the sorts of events with only a handful of top players.) Recall that the #1 player is worth 100 quality points, #2 is worth 75, #3 66, #4 55, #5 50, and players #6-#10 are worth 43. Players below #10 are counted at a discounted rate: 15 points for those ranked #11-#16, 10 for those ranked #17Ð#25. Thus the percentage listed below is the total quality points divided by the sum of the values for the Top Eight, 475. As with the “Strength and Depth” measure, tournaments below Tier II are shown in italics.. Tourn Rank Tournament Top 8 Adj. Qual Pts Percentage Score Winner 1T Australian Open 475 100% S.

Overall, these three systems agree fairly closely: If we look at the Top Ten events under each ranking, we find that no fewer than seven tournaments are Top Ten under all three: Australian Open, Dubai, Indian Wells, Los Angeles Championships, Roland Garros, U. S. Open, and Wimbledon. In addition, Filderstadt, Miami, and Rome are Top Ten in two lists each; Amelia Island, the Pan Pacific (!), and Sydney are Top Ten in one list each. Assessing the weakest tournaments is harder, but we note that Tashkent is dead last in the “Strength and Depth” ranking and is also one of the bottom tournaments in the Modified TSI. Of the 11 tournaments at the bottom of the TSI list, eight — Acapulco, Budapest, Estoril, Forest Hills, Hyderabad, Prague, Rabat, and Tashkent — are also in the bottom ten in the Strength and Depth list. It seems safe to say that these are pretty close to the bottom.

The total is dramatically down from last year, when 17 different players earned a 350 point result, with 38 total big results. On the other hand 2003, a mere 13 players combined to post 35 350+ point results, with fully half of them (18) being earned by Clijsters and Hénin-Hardenne.

Seeds and their Success Rates The following tables summarize how successful seeded players are at holding their seeds. (It will be observed that seeding is much more accurate at the stronger tournaments.) In the tables which follow, the heading “reached seeded round” refers to the number of seeds who made it to the round in which seeds are expected to face seeds (e.g. the Round of 32 at the Slams, or the quarterfinals at a 28-draw tournament which has only eight seeds). The column “held seed” refers to players who not only reach the seeded round but reach the level expected for their seeding — so, e.g., seeds #5-#8 are expected to reach the quarterfinal; seeds #3 and #4 should reach the semifinal; #2 should reach the final, and #1 should win. If a player goes beyond her seeding, of course, she is regarded as having held her seed.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 158 Lucky Losers All told, there were 74 instances of Lucky Losers making WTA main draws in 2005 (an average of a bit less than 1.2 per tournament), up from 62 in 2003 and 67 in 2004. Highlight players who were Lucky Losers were: Kirilenko (New Haven; lost 2R of main draw) Pennetta (Zürich; lost QF of main draw) Raymond (Los Angeles, lost 2R of main draw) In addition, Jelena Dokic was a Challenger Lucky Loser; she lost first round at the Petange $50K.

There is some tendency for Lucky Losers to come in bunches — that is, if a player managed to be a Lucky Loser once, she might well manage it more than once. Though somewhat less than last year; in 2004, four players were three-time Lucky Losers. This year, only Stephanie Cohen-Aloro managed three Lucky Loser entries. Getting into two main draws after losing in qualifying were K. Bondarenko, Chladkova, Czink, Haynes, Meusburger, Müller, Perebiynis, Perry, Ruano Pascual, and Schaul. One-time Lucky Losers were Alves, Beltrame, Birnerova, A. Bondarenko, Bychkova, Castaño, Czink , Drake, Flipkens, Foretz, Gagliardi, Gallovits, Gehrlein, Hisamatsu, Irvin, Jidkova, Karatantcheva, Kirilenko, Klaschka, Kurhajcova, Kutuzova, Laine, Lepchenko, Lisjak, Mamic, Mattek, Mihalache, Mirza, Obata, Ospina, Pastikova, Pennetta, Piedade, Poutchek, Raymond, Razzano, Rodionova, Safarova, Sanchez Lorenzo, Ant. Serra Zanetti, Ad. Serra Zanetti, Sromova, Stosur, Talaja, Tu, Vakulenko, Vento-Kabchi, Voskoboeva, Washington, Yakimova, and Zheng.

These 74 Lucky Losers compiled an overall record of 30-74 in main draw matches. The best result by a Lucky Loser was posted by Melinda Czink at Canberra; she went on to the the final (four wins)! (We might add as a footnote the odd case of Anastasiya Yakimova, who made the main draw of the Poitiers $75K Challenger as a Lucky Loser and won the event.) Only four other Lucky Losers managed to win more than one match at an event: Cohen-Aloro at Miami, Müller at Palermo, Lepchenko at Los Angeles, and Pennetta at Zürich; for Müller and Pennetta, that got them to the quarterfinals. Only four Lucky Losers earned Top 30 wins, though: Raymond beat #26 Asagoe at Eastbourne, Vento-Kabchi beat #22 Hantuchova at Eastbourne, Cohen-Aloro beat #21 Hantuchova at Miami, and Kirilenko beat #23 Farina Elia at New Haven.

If we look at tournaments with the most Lucky Losers, the numbers were as follows: 6 — Los Angeles 5 — Canadian Open 3 — Eastbourne, Estoril, Philadelphia, Warsaw, Wimbledon 2 — Bangkok, Hyderabad, Modena, New Haven, Palermo, Quebec City, Rabat, U. S. Open, Zürich 1 — Antwerp, Auckland, Beijing, Berlin, Birmingham, Bogota, Budapest, Canberra, Charleston, Doha, Gold Coast, GuangZhou, Indian Wells, Istanbul, Linz, Memphis, Miami, Moscow, Paris, Portoroz, Prague, Roland Garros, Rome, San Diego, Seoul, Stanford, Stockholm, Strasbourg, Sydney, Tashkent

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 164 The Road to Victory Sometimes earning a title is easy; sometimes it’s a long struggle. The following statistics offer perspectives on what a player had to do to earn a title (Tier II or higher). Games Lost in Path to Title The following table assesses the winner’s path to victory by calculating the number of games lost on the way to the title. Since, however, some tournaments have more rounds than others, this is divided by the number of matches played to get games per match. (Note: for these purposes, a tiebreak counts as a game). The lower the number of games per match, the better the player performed. Thus the toughest title, in terms of games lost, was Pierce’s victory at Moscow, followed by Mauresmo’s at Los Angeles and Mauresmo’s at Anterwep; Clijsters had by far the easiest wins, at the Canadian Open, Miami, and Stanford; ironically, Pierce’s sin at San Diego was the next-easiest.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 165 Quality Points Earned The following table assesses the winner’s path to victory by calculating the strength of her opponents, as measured by quality points. Since some tournaments have more rounds than others, this is divided by the number of matches played. (Note: It should be kept in mind that there are more quality points available to lower-ranked players than to higher-ranked players.)

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 166 “Top Players” 2005 Early in 2000, the challenge was issued to define what constitutes a “Top Player.” After some discussion, those involved decided that a “Top Player” was one who met two of the following three criteria: 1. Has reached at least one semifinal in the last three years. 2. Has, during one of the last three years, defeated at least five Top Ten players during a single year. 3. Has, during the last three years, won at least one tournament of Tier II or higher. The following table shows how well current players have done against these goals. The column labelled “Total Ach[ieved]” lists the total number of accomplishments met — i.e. it totals Slam semifinals, Tier II or higher titles, and increments of five Top Ten players defeated (i.e. if you beat five Top Ten players in a year, it adds one to your total; beat ten and you add two, etc. Remainders do not carry; if you beat eight in one year and seven in another, that counts as two, not three.) Note that the table below includes only players with at least one Accomplishment over the past three years. The very shortness of the list shows how hard it is to come up with two accomplishments!

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 167 From the above table, we can list players in order of “accomplishments.” Remember that this list is compiled over three years. Jennifer Capriati didn’t even play this year, but she has residual accomplishments. Justine Hénin-Hardenne was a mere co-#4 in accomplishments this year, but her three- year history makes her #2. We note that, of the 2005 year-end Top 25, eight (Golovin, Grönefeld, Hantuchova, Ivanovic, Jankovic, Pennetta, Schiavone, Vaidisova) had no accomplishments at all; another four (Déchy, Kirilenko, Likhovtseva, Safina) had only one accomplishment. In other words, nearly a third had no accomplishments, and nearly half had no more than one. (This is a tough criterion.) For comparison, of the 2004 year-end Top 25, six, had no accomplishments at that time. An interesting curiosity is that, most years, we have had retired players with accomplishments still on the books. Not this year; all players with accomplishments were active in this year, though Zuluaga retired in the course of the year and Rubin and Suárez may well be at the end also; they hardly played in 2005. But it’s interesting to note that we haven’t had any retirements by top players still at the height of their powers in hte last three years.

1. How can there be a .45 and a .6, prior to 2004 when the WTA started awarding eighths of points? The WTA made a mistake, that’s how. In 2003, #164 Evgenia Kulikovskaya had 190.45 points; in 2002, Alexandra Srndovic, #498, was shown with 25.1 points.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 169 The Year of the Injury When the WTA went to the additive (“Best N”) ranking system, it did so against the wishes of the top players. They didn’t want to have to play the extra tournaments needed to succeed under Best N. They were right. It took a while, but injuries to top players have become routine. 2000 was the first “year of the injury.” The WTA responded by lowering the minimum from Best 18 to Best 17. This, predictably, didn’t help — it didn’t reduce the incentive to overplay, just the reward. Every year since then has seen increased injuries by the top players. The following list attempts to tabulate top players’ injuries in 2005. I used to list the effects — the number of ranking places the players lost as a result of the injury. This year, I gave up when the list hit two pages. I didn’t think we’d ever see a worse year than 2004. I was, flatly, wrong. The list is necessarily somewhat imprecise. The WTA lists withdrawals, on a rather sporadic basis, and the reasons — but some of these are highly questionable (the ultimate example is probably Fabiola Zuluaga’s withrawal from Luxembourg. It was listed as a shoulder injury — but in fact she didn’t play because she was retired!). Note: Illness is listed as an injury (since a lot of these players get sick hanging around the locker room with other sick players, and overtraining can suppress the immune system). It’s just an informal impression, but the number of illnesses seemed to be dramatically up this year, even if you discount Alicia Molik’s chronic problem. Heat illness is not included in the injury list, since there is an element of conditioning (and of efficiency in winning) involved.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 173 Doubles Analysing doubles is more complex than singles, because of the existence of temporary teams and because some players play doubles much more often than others — though the women are approaching the men’s state of having singles and doubles specialists. There are no players who are Top Ten in both singles and doubles (though Alicia Molik was looking as if she would be before she got hurt), although Elena Likhovtseva and Daniela Hantuchova and Elena Dementieva amd Svetlana Kuznetsova are Top 20 in both. Still, doubles is so complex that the following section only sketches the state of the game.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 175 Doubles Ranking Fluctuation The table below is similar to the Ranking Fluctuation Table for singles, except that rankings are recorded monthly rather than twice monthly. All players who were in the Top 25 at any time during the year, and those who ended the year in the Top 30, are listed, along with a handful of other players (e.g. Sanchez- Vicario) who had had solid past results or who came close to the Top 25. This includes every player to win a Tier I or higher; the only Tier II winners not included are Francesca Schiavone, who won Doha with Alicia Molik but peaked at #27 and ended the year at #34; Tatiana Perebiynis and Barbora Strycova, who won Warsaw but ended the year at #57 and #43, respectively; and Nuria Llagostera Vives, who won Beijing with Vento-Kabchi but ended the year at #55. As with the equivalent table for singles, the month-by-month ranking numbers are followed by statistics about the players’ rankings: mean (average) and standard deviation (indicating how much a player’s ranking varied during the year. So Tanasugarn, with a standard deviation of 42.8, showed the biggest fluctuation in the course of the year, while Ruano Pascual, with a standard deviation of 0.9, showed the least variation). For purposes of these calculations, players who were unranked for part of the year (Sanchez-Vicario, Schett) are omitted. Recall that the mean is the “average” ranking and the standard deviation is the measure of volatility: The higher the standard deviation, the more volatile a player’s ranking.. The top ten based on average ranking were 1. Ruano Pascual (1.3), 2. Black (2.8), 3. Suárez (4.9), 4. Stubbs (5.0), 5. Kuznetsova (5.9), 6. Likhovtseva (7.5), 7. Huber (8.5), 8. Raymond (9.4), 9. Molik (9.6), 10. Shaughnessy (9.7).

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 178 Individual Results: The Top Doubles Players/Results This table is generally equivalent to the table of results in the section on singles, save that the format is somewhat simplified. (Also note that the number of events is what the WTA counted — it does not include the Olympics.) The list shows each tournament the player played and the partner with whom she played. This is followed, in parenthesis, by the tier of the tournament, a notation showing how far the player advanced, and the number of wins her team had to reach that point. For the players each team lost to, see the after this, “Head-to-Heads — Team Records and Losses.” Rank # of Player Results Events 23 20 Asagoe Auckland w/Srebotnik (IV, Win, 4) Australian Open w/Srebotnik (Slam, R16, 2) Pan Pacific w/Jankovic (I, 1R, 0) Doha w/Camerin (II, QF, 1) Indian Wells w/Srebotnik (I, 1R, 0) Miami w/Srebotnik (I, 2R, 1) Amelia Island w/Srebotnik (II, SF, 2) Charleston w/Srebotnik (I, QF, 2) Rome w/Marrero (I, 2R, 1) Roland Garros w/Srebotnik (Slam, QF, 3) Birmingham w/Camerin (III, 1R, 0) Wimbledon w/Srebotnik (Slam, R16, 2) San Diego w/Peer (I, 1R, 0) Los Angeles w/Garbin (II, QF, 1) Canadian Open w/Garbin (I, SF, 2+1 walkover) U.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 196 Head-to-Heads — Team Records and Losses Head-to-head records in doubles don’t mean much. It’s a much bigger achievement to beat Shinobu Asagoe when she plays with Ai Sugiyama than when she plays with Saori Obata. As a result, no attempt is made to compile individual head-to-heads for doubles. Rather, the following lists show the opponents to whom the top doubles teams have lost this year. The first line of each section shows, in bold, the names the doubles team.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 205 Teams with the Most Events The following list shows all teams containing at least one of our highlight doubles players to play at least four events together. Team Tournaments Yan/Zheng 17 Li/Sun 15 Medina Garrigues/Safina 15 Stewart/Stosur 13 Black/Huber 12 Hantuchova/Sugiyama 12 Martinez/Ruano Pascual 12 Black/Stubbs 11 Likhovtseva/Zvonareva 11 Raymond/Stosur 11 Asagoe/Srebotnik 10 Dulko/Vento-Kabchi 10 Raymond/Stubbs 10 Benesova/Peschke 9 Grönefeld/Navratilova 7 Petrova/Shaughnessy 7 Bartoli/Grönefeld 6 Daniilidou/Pratt 6 Kuznetsova/Molik 6 Morariu/Schnyder 6 Davenport/Morariu 5 Dulko/Kirilenko 5 Grönefeld/Shaughnessy 5 Peschke/Schiavone 5 Ruano Pascual/Suárez 5 Salerni/Vento-Kabchi 5 Dementieva/Pennetta 4 Domachowska/Kirilenko 4 Loit/Pratt 4 McShea/Stewart 4 Testud/Vinci 4

What is fascinating about this list is how few strong teams lasted the whole year. Yan/Zheng have a combined ranking of #60. Li/Sun are #72. Medina Garrigues/Safina are the strongest team to last all year, and even they are only a combined #48 (and they came within a hair of qualifying for the year-end Championships with those rankings). In 2004, seven significant teams managed 14 or more events together, and included most of the top teams: Black/Stubbs had 19 events, Ruano Pascual/Suárez 17, Kuzetsova/Likhovtseva 15, Navratilova/ Raymond 15, Petrova/Shaughnessy 14.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 206 Team Results, Sorted By Both Players To facilitate finding the results for any particular team, the following list shows results for every team containing a highlight player, sorted by both highlight players (e.g. results for Petrova and Shaughnessy are listed under both Petrova [P] and Shaughnessy [S]). Please note that results have been simplified — withdrawals and walkovers omitted, Challengers and WTA events combined, etc.; for full details on a player’s activity, consult her entries above.

There are several reasons why we compute fewer alternate rankings for doubles. The most notable reason is that quality points are far less important in doubles, constituting roughly 20% of a typical player’s total, rather than nearly 40% as in singles (observe the astonishing fact, e.g., that in 2004 Virginia Ruano Pascual and Paola Suárez earned exactly the same scores for winning the Australian Open, Roland Garros, and the U. S. Open — 786 points each time. This is at least 200 points less than a singles winner would earn, and the difference is all quality points; the fact that the numbers are the same at each event is a testament to the fact that the highest possible ranking for a doubles team is #3, and most end up ranked in the #121-#250 or #251-#500 brackets). We calculate the divisor ranking because it’s the simplest per-tournament ranking available; we calculate the divisor with no minimum because, in recent years, the best doubles players — Hingis, Davenport, Kournikova, the Williams Sisters; this year, we can even add Suárez — didn’t play full schedules. Though the other side of this coin is, a lot of players now play only or mostly Slams, or on their favorite surfaces, which helps them unduly; that is why Suárez, e.g., and also Mauresmo, come out so strong. There is probably some balance point, but with the changes coming to the system next year, it didn’t seem worthwhile to pursue it this year. Note: The WTA has a tradition of getting the doubles rankings wrong — that is, of having the year-end rankings disagree with the total points awarded week by week; they presumably are making corrections after the fact, and they never, ever announce this unless confronted by someone who knows exactly where the change occurred (in which case one hardly needs to ask). Last year, the error was fully 75 points for Tamarine Tanasugarn. This year, I didn’t spot any errors of more than one point. But that means there could be an error somewhere beyond the decimal point in some of these numbers. It’s unlikely to affect anything — but I can’t bring myself to like it.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 225 Quality Points Per Event (Best Eleven Events) We said above that quality points don’t mean much in doubles, and they don’t. And it’s very hard to calculate quality numbers. But we’ll give it a try. What we will do is take the quality points from the player’s best eleven (as supplied by the WTA), and then divide by an adjusted number of tournaments. If the player in fact has 11 or fewer events, we’ll just divide by 11. If the player has more than eleven, we’ll subtract half an event for each event over 11, and divide by that. Doing that gives this somewhat surprising list — note Black falling out of the Top Ten!: Qual Rank Player Best 11 Q Pts Events Score WTA Rank 1 Suárez, Paola 333 5 66.6 17 2 Raymond, Lisa 562 21 35.1 3 3Mauresmo, Amélie 105 3 35.0 64 4 Stosur, Samantha 614 25 34.1 2 5 Ruano Pascual, Virginia 472 19 31.5 4 6Molik, Alicia 311 12 27.0 12 7Kuznetsova, Svetlana 288 11 26.2 8 8 Grönefeld, Anna-Lena 330 21 20.6 11 9 Hantuchova, Daniela 303 19 20.2 13 10 Dementieva, Elena 238 13 19.8 18 11 Stubbs, Rennae 309 21 19.3 5 12 Black, Cara 320 24 18.3 1 13 Navratilova, Martina 230 15 17.7 21 14 Schnyder, Patty 195 13 16.3 32 15 Zvonareva, Vera 219 16 16.2 10 16 Sugiyama, Ai 273 23 16.1 14 17 Huber, Liezel 208 15 16.0 6 18 Peschke, Kveta 285 26 15.4 16 19 Morariu, Corina 202 17 14.4 15 20 Pennetta, Flavia 189 18 13.0 22 Dulko, Gisela 208 21 13.0 26 Davenport, Lindsay 62 5 12.4 49 Asagoe, Shinobu 189 20 12.2 23 Srebotnik, Katarina 176 18 12.1 25 Likhovtseva, Elena 201 23 11.8 7 Stewart, Bryanne 206 24 11.8 24 Bartoli, Marion 146 15 11.2 47 Martinez, Conchita 170 20 11.0 9 Zheng Jie 143 19 9.5 30 Sun Tiantian 128 16 9.5 36 Li Ting 128 16 9.5 36 Shaughnessy, Meghann 116 14 9.3 19 Petrova, Nadia 83 9 9.2 33 Yan Zi 146 22 8.8 31 Medina Garrigues, Anabel 135 20 8.7 20 Kirilenko, Maria 122 21 7.6 27 Myskina, Anastasia 94 14 7.5 39 Vento-Kabchi, Maria 114 24 6.5 35 Loit, Emilie 91 17 6.5 29 Safina, Dinara 84 20 5.4 28 Benesova, Iveta 89 26 4.8 38 Husarova, Janette 50 11 4.5 51

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 226 Majors Ranking In the singles section (page 62), we defined the ten WTA “Majors” (tournaments effectively all the top players play): Sydney, Australian Open, Ericsson, Rome, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, San Diego, U. S. Open, Filderstadt, and the year-end Championships. We can apply the same “majors ranking” in doubles: Five points for a title at these events, three for a final, one for a semifinal. If we do this, we can rank both teams and individuals. To put this in perspective, Martina Hingis’s Grand Slam year of 1998 earned her 36 points — 26 with Novotna, 5 with Lucic, 5 with Sukova. In 2004, we had two teams each with 23 points: Black/Stubbs and Ruano Pascual/Suárez. In 2003, the co-leaders were Kim Clijsters and Ai Sugiyama, with 23 points earned together; in 2002, it was Suárez alone, with 25 points (21 with Ruano Pascual and four with others). The 2001 leader was Lisa Raymond, with 28 points (22 with Stubbs and six with others). We start with the team rankings: Doubles Team Majors Rankings 22 teams managed at least one Major showing.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 228 Combined Singles and Doubles Rankings This was the year the singles and doubles split became (almost) complete. There are no players who are Top Ten in both; the only player who looked as if she might manage both was Alicia Molik, and she got sick. Only four players — Likhovtseva, Dementieva, Kuznetsova, and Hantuchova — manage to be Top 20 in both. As of 2005, only 49 players are Top 100 in both singles and doubles. This is down from 53 in 2004; there were 60 such players in 2003, 55 in 2002, fully 67 in 2001.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 245 The Tennis Almanac 2005 A day-by-day account of what are, in the editor’s opinion, the most significant match(es) of each day of the year. Note that the comments, apart from later proofreading, are what I said at the time. January 2 — Gold Coast 1R: Flavia Pennetta def. Nathalie Déchy (7) 7–6(9–7) 6–1 This raises a faint possibility that Déchy will lose her Top 24 Australian Open seed. January 3 — Gold Coast 1R: Samantha Stosur def. Karolina Sprem (4) 6–4 6–2 Stosur beat Sprem at Gold Coast last year also. This year, it looks even more impressive. January 4 — Gold Coast 1R: Dinara Safina def. Ai Sugiyama (3) 6–3 6–2 Auckland 1R: Mara Santangelo def. Eleni Daniilidou (3) 6Ð2 1Ð6 6Ð1 Two events, two defending champions, two #3 seeds, two upsets. Sugiyama will fall out of the Top 20, Daniilidou out of the Top 40 January 5 — Gold Coast 2R: Sesil Karatantcheva (Q) def. Elena Likhovtseva (7) 6–2 0–6 7–6(7–3) Karatantcheva earns her second Top 30 win and moves closer to the Top 100 (without quite making it) January 6 — Gold Coast QF: Samantha Stosur def. Magdalena Maleeva (8) 2–6 6–3 6–4 What is it about Stosur and Gold Coast? This is her fourth Top 25 win at this event, and she has none at any other event. Whatever the reason, she’s knocked Maleeva out of the Top 25. January 7 — Gold Coast SF: Samantha Stosur def. Silvia Farina Elia (5) 6–4 2–6 6–1 This is rapidly moving from amazing to simply unreal. Why can’t Stosur do this anywhere else? The next day, she even took Patty Schnyder to three sets in the final Jaunary 8 — Auckland SF: Shinobu Asagoe (4) def. Amy Frazier (1) 7–6(7–4) 6–4 Auckland SF: Katarina Srebotnik def. (5) Marion Bartoli (5) 7Ð5 2Ð6 7Ð5 Auckland F: Katarina Srebotnik def. (4) Shinobu Asagoe (4) 5Ð7 7Ð5 6Ð4 Auckland F DOUBLES: Asagoe/Srebotnik (1) def. Baker/Lubiani (WC) 6Ð3 6Ð3 It was a long, long day for Asagoe and Srebotnik (who spent about five hours each on the court), but the rewards weren’t bad by Tier IV standards.... January 9 — Sydney 1R: Nathalie Déchy def. Lisa Raymond 7–5 6–3 It’s only a first round win, but it will probably keep Déchy Top 25. January 10 — Sydney 1R DOUBLES: Stewart/Stosur def. Raymond/Stubbs (1) 1–6 7–6(7–5) 6–4 More Stosur magic — or just Raymond/Stubbs up to their old problems? January 11 — Sydney 2R: Peng Shuai (Q) def. Anastasia Myskina (2) 6–1 6–3 A cranky loss by Myskina just about kills her chances of hitting #1 in the near future. January 12 — Sydney 2R: Fabiola Zuluaga def. Vera Zvonareva (4) 7–6(9–7) 6–3 Zvonareva’s Top Ten jinx (the one that says she can’t get there) operates again as Zuluaga hits a career high of #16. January 13 — Sydney QF: Peng Shuai (Q) def. Nadia Petrova (5) 6–3 4–2, retired (head exhaustion) Sydney QF: Samantha Stosur def. Lindsay Davenport (1) walkover (bronchitis) One day, two first-time Top 50 players. Amazingly, Stosur would benefit from another walkover (over Dementieva) in the next round to make her first Tier II final, and Dementieva/Sugiyama would withdraw from the doubles, giving Stosur and Bryanne Stewart a very nice doubles title.... January 14 — Hobart F: Zheng Jie def. Gisela Dulko (2) 6–2 6–0 A steady game gives Zheng her first-ever singles title January 15 — Sydney F: Alicia Molik (6) def. Samantha Stosur (WC) 6–7(5–7) 6–4 7–5 Canberra F: Ana Ivanovic (Q) def. Melinda Czink (LL) 7Ð5 6Ð1 Molik’s fifth career title gives her one Tier V, one Tier IV, one Tier III, one Tier II, and a Tier I; Ivanovic wins title #1 (and when is the last time you saw a qualifier face a lucky loser in a final?). January 17 — Australian Open 1R: Martina Sucha def. Ai Sugiyama (16) 7–5 6–4 Sugiyama remains winless in 2005; this is the worst of her three losses so far. What is wrong with her? January 18 — Australian Open 1R: Barbara Schett def. Tiffany Welford (WC) 6–3 1–6 6–2 This may well be the last singles win for the former Top Ten player....

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 246 January 19 — Australian Open 1R DOUBLES: Hopkins/Washington def. Martinez/Ruano Pascual (4) 7Ð5 6Ð4 Anna-Lena Grönefeld def. Fabiola Zuluaga (17) 6–2 7–6(7–2) Zuluaga, last year’s semifinalist, crashes out of the Top 25 — but the big news is in doubles: Last year’s champion is out, and with it we have a possibility — slight, but a possibility — that Ruano Pascual will lose the #1 doubles ranking to Cara Black January 20 — Australian Open 2R: Daniela Hantuchova (26) def. Barbara Schett 6–4 6–0 Schett was stoic until the final game, but then burst into tears before she played the last point of her career — and was aced. January 21 — Australian Open 2R DOUBLES: Bartoli/Grönefeld def. Raymond/Stubbs (3) 1Ð0 Retired (Raymond Lower Back Strain) Australian Open 2R DOUBLES: Chuang/Fujiwara def. Husarova/Likhovtseva (5) 6Ð7(1Ð7) 6Ð1 7Ð5 Likhovtseva, last year’s doubles finalist, will fall from #4 to probably #7. Stubbs’s faint hopes of reaching #1 are dead. But it’s Raymond who may be in the most trouble; while she may well stay Top Ten in doubles, how is she going to do in singles after this? (Next day’s answer: She withdrew) January 22 — Australian Open 2R DOUBLES: Birnerova/Vanc def. Black/Huber (2) 6Ð7(6Ð8) 7Ð5 6Ð3 A black day for Black: She loses her chance to become doubles #1. Ruano Pascual keeps the top spot. Jaunary 23 — Australian Open 3R DOUBLES: Russell/Santangelo def. Dementieva/Sugiyama (8) 6Ð4 6Ð4 And so six of the top eight seeded teams are out, including all of the top five. Only three seeded teams — #6 Kuznetsova/Molik, #7 Myskina/Zvonareva, and #15 Davenport/Morariu — are left, and Davenport/Morariu are the only seeds in the bottom half. The only past Slam winners are Davenport and Morariu in the bottom half and Martina Navratilova in the top half. What a doubles event.... January 24 — Australian Open 4R: Nathalie Déchy (19) def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 6–4 6–2 Australian Open 4R: (12) Patty Schnyder (12) def. (6) Elena Dementieva 6Ð7(6Ð8) 7Ð6(7Ð4) 6Ð2 Australian Open 4R: Alicia Molik (10) def. Venus Williams (8) 7Ð5 7Ð6(7Ð3) Schnyder, who had seemed likely to lose her #14 ranking, instead moves up a spot; Venus loses another Slam as Molik reaches the Top Ten for the first time, and Myskina will lose the #3 spot to either Kuznetsova or Sharapova (or maybe Serena Williams) as Déchy moves firmly into the Top 20. January 25 — Australian Open QF: Serena Williams (7) def. Amélie Mauresmo 6–2 6–2 Australian Open QF: Maria Sharapova (4) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (5) 4Ð6 6Ð2 6Ð2 Sharapova becomes the #1 Russian; she and Serena will play for the #3 ranking after the American kills the injured Mauresmo’s chance to become #1 Jaunary 26— Australian Open QF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Alicia Molik (10) 6–4 4–6 9–7 Australian Open QF: Nathalie Déchy (18) def. Patty Schnyder (12) 5–7 6–1 7–5 Two matches, both two hours 33 minutes long (though the Davenport/Molik match would have been longer had it not been for a blown call that cost Molik an ). For Déchy, it spells a new high of #13; Molik has to settle for #10. Davenport looks good to win her first Slam in five years, though it’s likely to be called cheap. January 27 — Australian Open SF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Nathalie Déchy (19) 2–6 7–6(7–5) 6–4 Australian Open SF: Serena Williams (7) def. Maria Sharapova (4) 2Ð6 7Ð5 8Ð6 Serena saves three match points to take the #3 ranking. Davenport looks very bad, but she’s in her first Slam final since the 2000 U. S. Open — and she’s in the doubles final too.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 247 January 28 — Australian Open F DOUBLES: Kuznetsova/Molik (6) def. Davenport/Morariu (15) 6Ð3 6Ð4 After a long string of failures in finals, Kuznetsova at last wins one; Molik also has her first Slam. Davenport/Morariu, after waiting four years for another Slam final, once again lose — but Morariu was thrilled just to get this far after leukemia and countless injuries. January 29 — Australian Open F: Serena Williams (7) def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 2–6 6–3 6–0 Serena won the last nine games to win her first Slam in a year and a half. Davenport, who has gone five years without a Slam, thus loses both finals. And while the American stays #1, Serena is close enough to threaten in the next few months. January 31 — Pattaya City 1R: Jelena Dokic def. Melinda Czink 7–5 7–5 Dokic snaps a nine match losing streak going back all the way to Charleston. February 1 — Pattaya City 1R: Marlene Weingärtner def. Martina Hingis (WC) 1–6 6–2 6–2 Pan Pacific 1R: Roberta Vinci def. Ai Sugiyama (5) 2Ð6 6Ð3 6Ð2 Hingis made her long-awaited comeback, but lost strength and concentration in the end. Sugiyama lost concentration, too, suffering her fifth straight loss; she has yet to win a match this year and falls to #22. February 2 — Pan Pacific 1R: Jill Craybas def. Tatiana Panova 6–4 4–6 7–5 Pattaya City 2R: Alona Bondarenko def. Jelena Dokic 7Ð6(7Ð1) 1Ð0, retired (groin) One day, two players who had their best results of 2004 at the Pan Pacific both losing. Panova will fall from #60 to about #80; #125 Dokic drops to around #210. February 3 — Pan Pacific 2R: Shinobu Asagoe def. Roberta Vinci 6–0 6–2 Unless Iveta Benesova beats Lindsay Davenport, Asagoe will hit the Top 30 for the first time February 4 — Pan Pacific QF: Shinobu Asagoe def. Elena Dementieva (4) 6–3 6–4 Pattaya City QF: Evgenia Linetskaya def. Vera Zvonareva (1) 6Ð4 6Ð2 Asagoe clinches her Top 30 ranking (she will likely hit Top 25 in the next few weeks); Zvonareva once again falls short of the Top Ten as Linetskaya earns her first Top 20 win and reaches a career high. February 5 — Pan Pacific SF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (3) 6–1 7–6(7–2) Davenport gains revenge for the U. S. Open and also strengthens her grip on the #1 ranking February 6 — Pan Pacific F: Maria Sharapova (2) def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 6–1 3–6 7–6(7–5) Sharapova wins her first title of 2005, takes the #3 ranking, and ends Davenport’s two year run in Tokyo. February 7 — Paris 1R: Dinara Safina def. Karolina Sprem (6) 6–4 6–2 Safina, who has over 180 points to defend, starts off with a win over the event’s leading indoor-hater. February 8 — Paris 1R: Vera Dushevina (Q) def. Iveta Benesova 6–4 2–6 6–3 Dushevina is one win away from the Top 40; Benesova’s hopes of making the Top 30 are nearly dead. February 9 — Hyderabad 2R: Li Na (1) def. Maria Emilia Salerni 6–2 7–5 On a very dull day otherwise, Li’s routine win puts her in the Top 50 for the first time. February 10 — Paris 2R: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Mary Pierce 6–4 6–3 Mauresmo moves back up to #3 in the world and knocks last year’s finalist out of the top 30. February 11 — Paris QF: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Magdalena Maleeva (8) 6–2 7–6(7–2) This win, combined with a withdrawal by Serena Williams (stomach flu) puts Mauresmo back at #2. February 12 — Paris SF: Dinara Safina def. Tatiana Golovin 6–1 4–6 7–6(7–2) Safina, who seemed bound out of the Top 50 when this began, instead reaches her first Tier II final. February 13 — Paris F: Dinara Safina def. Amélie Mauresmo (2) 6–4 2–6 6–3 Safina wins her first Tier II title (though she would lose the doubles final) as Mauresmo badly damages her hopes of returning to #1. February 14 — Antwerp 1R: Silvia Farina Elia, withdrawn (shoulder)/replaced by Schaul (LL) Farina Elia was last year’s finalist; her inability to play will drop her out of the Top 30. February 15 — Antwerp 1R: Kim Clijsters def. Jelena Kostanic 6–2 6–3 For a first match back, it was a very good effort indeed.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 248 February 16 — Antwerp 2R: Kim Clijsters def. Nadia Petrova (5) 7–5 6–7(3–7) 6–1 An even more impressive second match for Clijsters. February 17 — Antwerp 2R: Alicia Molik (4) def. Magdalena Maleeva 4–6 6–2 7–6(9–7) Another careerhigh for Molik: She’ll be at least #9. February 18 — Antwerp QF: Venus Williams (3) def. Kim Clijsters 6–2 6–3 Clijsters, the defending champion, will fall out of the Top 100 — but she’s playing, and she says her wrist is fine, and she had two good matches before losing. February 19 — Bogota SF: Lourdes Dominguez Lino (Q) def. Fabiola Zuluaga (1) 7–6(9–7) 7–6(7–3) A player going for her first career final ends Zuluaga’s almost-four-year, 17-match winning streak in Bogota. When the points come off in another week, it will probably cost Zuluaga her Top 25 spot. February 20 — Antwerp F: Amélie Mauresmo (1) def. Venus Williams (3) 4–6 7–5 6–4 Mauresmo is perhaps one final away from a return to #1. February 21 — Doha 1R: Elena Bovina (6) def. Shinobu Asagoe 7–5 7–6(8–6) Bovina comes back strong in her first event of the year, and stops Asagoe from passing Ai Sugiyama to become Japan’s #1. February 22 — Doha 1R DOUBLES: Molik/Schiavone def. Ruano Pascual/Suárez (1) 7–5 5–7 6–3 Having already lost in singles, it’s been a tough comeback for Paola Suárez. February 23 — Doha 2R: Conchita Martinez def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 6–4 7–5 Martinez wins her seventh straight match, and knocks out the defending champion. February 24 — Doha QF DOUBLES: Testud/Vinci def. Stewart/Stosur 1–6 7–6(7–4) 6–4 A pretty good comeback for Testud, considering that she hasn’t played since the Olympics! February 25 — Doha SF: Alicia Molik (4) def. Amélie Mauresmo (1) 7–6(13–11) 6–1 Ah, Mauresmo and the #1 ranking. This will likely be her last chance, and she blew it. Molik hits a career-high #8. February 26 — Doha F: Maria Sharapova (2) def. Alicia Molik (4) 4–6 6–1 6–4 Sharapova wins her second title of the year, hits #3, and takes the #2 spot in the Race. February 27 — Acapulco F: Flavia Pennetta (1) def. Ludmila Cervanova 3–6 7–5 6–3 Pennetta wins her second straight title and shoots up to #25 February 28 — Dubai 1R: Silvia Farina Elia def. Venus Williams (5) 7–5 7–6(8–6) Venus blamed a blister. Whatever the reason, Farina Elia has her first Top Ten win in a long time. March 1 — Dubai 2R: Sania Mirza (WC) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova 6–4 6–2 Mirza scores her first Top Ten win and leaves Kuznetsova #7 — and #4 among March 2 — Dubai QF DOUBLES: Hantuchova/Schiavone (WC) def. Likhovtseva/Martinez (4) 6Ð3 6Ð3 Hantuchova suddenly is coming to life in both singles and doubles: She beat Molik in the singles first round, and she beat Likhovtseva in both singles and doubles on this Wednesday March 3 — Dubai QF: Patty Schnyder (8) def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 6–7(0–7) 7–6(7–2) 6–2 Myskina had a match point. She proceeded to Russianize it — and the whole match. March 4 — Dubai SF: Jelena Jankovic def. Serena Williams (2) 6–0 4–3, retired Serena blamed the balls. Whatever the explanation, Jankovic has her best-ever win, her first Tier II final, and a career high. March 5 — Dubai F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Jelena Jankovic 6–4 3–6 6–4 Davenport probably didn’t deserve it, but she earns her first title of 2005. March 9 — Indian Wells 1R: Kim Clijsters def. Nicole Pratt 6–2 6–1 One more win, and Clijsters defends her points. Then she gets to start trying to rebuild. March 10 — Indian Wells 1R: Daja Bedanova (WC) def. Kveta Peschke 6–3 3–6 6–3 Bedanova earns her first WTA win since Wimbledon 2003. March 11 — Indian Wells 2R: Mariana Diaz-Oliva (Q) def. Gisela Dulko (21) 6–4 1–6 6–4 Dulko watches 152 points come off and probably sees her days of hovering around #30 end.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 249 March 12 — Indian Wells 2R: Lisa Raymond(31) def. Alona Bondarenko (LL) 4–6 6–3 6–3 It’s not a pretty scoreline, but at least Raymond is playing again. March 13 — Indian Wells 3R: Evgenia Linetskaya (30) def. Amélie Mauresmo (2) 2–6 6–2 7–5 Mauresmo could have earned the #1 ranking at this event. Need I say more? March 14 — Indian Wells 3R: Viktoriya Kutuzova (WC) def. Amy Frazier (17) 6–3 6–3 Kutuzova is having the event of her life — two Top 30 wins, and three straight victories; she’ll move from #473 to around #250. March 15 — Indian Wells 4R: Kim Clijsters def. Evgenia Linetskaya (30) 6–2 6–1 One more win (which she will earn over Conchita Martinez the next day) and Clijsters is Top 100 again. As for Linetskaya, she’s Top 40 and climbing fast. [Later: Too bad her father abuses her. In a few more weeks, she will “hurt” her wrist, and what was looking like a Top 30 run fizzles out.] March 16 — Indian Wells QF: Elena Dementieva (4) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (5) 3–6 6–3 7–5 Not only does Dementieva get revenge for the U. S. Open, she also keeps Kuznetsova at #7. March 17 — Indian Wells QF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Nathalie Déchy (7) 7–6(7–2) 6–0 Indian Wells QF: Maria Sharapova (3) def. Mary Pierce (20) 6Ð4 6Ð3 And so Davenport and Sharapova will meet in the semifinal — with Sharapova needing to win if she is to have any chance at the #1 ranking at Miami. March 18 — Indian Wells SF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Maria Sharapova (3) 6–0 6–0 The Shriekinator will not be making #1 at Miami; Davenport is safe at least until Amelia Island. March 19 — Indian Wells F: Kim Clijsters def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 6–4 4–6 6–2 Clijsters wins herfirst title in over a year, and returns to the Top 40 as Davenport shows little of the form she had the day before. March 20 — Indian Wells F DOUBLES: Ruano Pascual/Suárez (1) def. Petrova/Shaughnessy (2) 7Ð6(7Ð3) 6Ð1 Ruano Pascual and Suárez finally break their jinx against Petrova and Shaughnessy [It will turn out that the magic is over for Petrova and Shaughnessy, who will not win a title all year.] March 21 — Miami Qualifying 1R: Stephanie Cohen-Aloro (6) def. Daja Bedanova (WC) 6–3 6–4 Bedanova put in only 45% of her first serves, with predictable results. March 23 — Miami 1R: def. Magui Serna (Q) 6–3 7–5 So much for Serna’s seeming return to form. March 24 — Miami 1R: Kim Clijsters def. Sandra Kloesel (Q) 6–0 6–1 Not only does Clijsters post her eighth straight win, but it’s the first bagel of her comeback. March 25 — Miami 2R: Ai Sugiyama (21) def. Jill Craybas 7–5 6–4 Miami 2R: Maria Sharapova (2) def. Eleni Daniilidou 6Ð0 6Ð4 Within a few hours, we lose last year’s quarterfinalist and semifinalist. Daniilidou will fall from #58 to the #90 range; Craybas goes from #73 to below #100. March 26 — Miami 2R: Ana Ivanovic def. Nadia Petrova (10) 6–4 7–5 In a strange match, Ivanovic hits theTop 50 while blocking Petrova’s Top Ten chances (incidentally allowing Vera Zvonareva to return to the Top Ten). March 27 — Miami 3R: Catalina Castaño (Q) def. Patty Schnyder (11) 6–3 2–6 6–1 Even Castaño has to be surprised; after beating Paola Suárez in the second round, she knocks off another seed and, from #111, moves up to the #80 range. March 28 — Miami 4R: Ana Ivanovic def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (6) 6–3 3-6 7–5 Ivanovic scores herfirst Top Ten win and puts herself in the Top 40 March 29 — Miami QF: Venus Williams (8) def. Serena Williams (3) 6–1 7–6(10–8) A typically ugly match,but it breaks Venus’s six match losing streak to Serena and moves her to #8. March 30 — Miami QF: Kim Clijsters def. Elena Dementieva (4) 6–2 6–1 Consecutive win #12 puts Clijsters back in the Top 30 — and she faces Amélie Mauresmo next, with Mauresmo needing a win to get back to #1.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 250 March 31 — Miami SF: Kim Clijsters def. Amélie Mauresmo (1) 6–1 6–0 Miami SF: Maria Sharapova (2) def. Venus Williams (8) 6Ð4 6Ð3 Mauresmo, if she won the final, would be #1. Any surprise that she lost? And, by losing, she opened the door for Sharapova to be #2 if she could beat Clijsters. April 1 — Miami SF DOUBLES: Kuznetsova/Molik (3) def. Ruano Pascual/Suárez (1) 6–4 6–3 Kuznetsova and Molik reach their third final in three tries while breaking the top seeds’ 12-win streak. April 2 — Miami F: Kim Clijsters def. Maria Sharapova (2) 6–3 7–5 Clijsters wins her fourtheenth straight, and her second straight tournament; she is the first person ever to win the Indian Wells/Miami duo since Indian Wells became a 96-draw Tier I. She is back in the Top 20; Sharapova loses the chance to become #2 April 3 — Miami F DOUBLES: Kuznetsova/Molik (3) def. Raymond/Stubbs (5) 7–5 6–7(5–7) 6–2 Raymond and Stubbs make their first final of the year — but it’s Kuznetsova/Molik who are 14–1 this year and have won the two biggest titles so far (Australian Open and Miami). Molik is 18Ð1! April 4 — Amelia Island 1R: Viriginie Razzano def. Emilie Loit 7–5, retired (left wrist) Loit, last year’s Casablanca champion, will fall out of the Top 60 — and she still has Estoril to defend. April 5 — Amelia Island 1R: Virginia Ruano Pascual def. Karolina Sprem (10) 4–6 6–3 6–4 Not even clay can halt Sprem’s slide; she falls out of the Top 20 April 6 — Amelia Island 2R: Virginie Razzano def. Alicia Molik (4) 6–4 6–4 Razzano puts herself in the Top 50 as Molik loses a chance to regain the #8 ranking April 7 — Amelia Island 3R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Kveta Peschke (Q) 6–2 6–2 It wasn’t much of a match — but rain halted all but two contests. This at least helps Davenport a tiny bit in her quest to stay #1. April 8 — Amelia Island 3R: Shinobu Asagoe (15) def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 7–6(7–5) 7–6(9–7) Amelia Island 3R: Virginie Razzano def. Ai Sugiyama (13) 6Ð4 6Ð7(3Ð7) 7Ð5 Amelia Island QF: Virginie Razzano def. Vera Zvonareva (6) 6Ð4 6Ð4 Amelia Island QF: Silvia Farina Elia (12) def. Serena Williams (2) 5Ð7 7Ð6(9Ð7), retired On a day when almost everyone except Davenport and Zvonareva had to play two matches, upsets reigned. Razzano puts herself in the Top 40, Farina Elia in the Top 20, and Asagoe hitss a career high and is Japan’s #1 player. Our crazy list of semifinalists: Davenport, Petrova, Farina Elia, Razzano. April 9 — Amelia Island QF DOUBLES: Stewart/Stosur def. Raymond/Stubbs (2) 2Ð6 7Ð6(8Ð6) 7Ð6(7Ð2) Down a set and a break when power failed Friday night, the Australian pair took maximum advantage of the respite, winning the quarterfinal and going on to the final — the second time they’ve beaten Raymond/Stubbs and then made the final of a Tier II event this year. (And they would once again take home the title, too.) Goofy. Or maybe it was just a lousy day to be an Australian seed playing with a non-Australian; in addition to Stubbs, Alicia Molik (seeded #5 with Martina Navratilova) suffered only her second loss of the year in doubles — her first before a final. April 10 — Amelia Island F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Silvia Farina Elia (12) 7–5 7–5 Farina Elia really should have won the second set at least, but instead Davenport takes the Race lead and strengthens her grip on the #1 ranking; this probably blocks Maria Sharapova this clay season. April 11 — Charleston 1R: Justine Hénin-Hardenne def. Jelena Jankovic (10) 5–7 6–4 6–3 Hénin-Hardenne again plays well in her comeback, and returns to the Top 40 April 12 — Charleston 1R: Barbora Strycova def. Conchita Martinez 6–3 6–4 Strycova, #94 coming in and slumping, beats last year’s finalist; that could drop Martinez below #50. April 13 — Charleston 2R: Nicole Vaidisova def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 6–3 5–7 6–4 Vaidisova scores her first Top Ten win as Myskina continues to struggle badly April 14 — Charleston 3R: Tatiana Golovin (13) def. Venus Williams (4) 7–5 6–4 Golovin hits the Top 20 for the first time and drops Venus to #9 — and Venus has reportedly decided not to play any more clay before Roland Garros.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 251 April 15 — Charleston QF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 3–6 6–3 1–0, retired Lindsay’s Law (stating that Davenport gets hurt when she plays three or more weeks in a row) strikes again; it was her hip flexor this time, and it puts Hénin-Hardenne back in the Top 30. April 16 — Charleston SF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne def. Tatiana Golovin (13) 7–6(7–4) 7–5 Just like countrywoman Clijsters, Hénin-Hardenne is in the final in only her second event back. April 17 — Charleston F: Justine Hénin-Hardenne def. Elena Dementieva (2) 7–5 6–2 Look who is back — back in the Top 25 and back in the winner’s circle. April 25 — Estoril 1R: Alona Bondarenko def. Jelena Dokic 6–2 3–6 6–2 So what else is new? But nothing really happened on this day to give us a real Match of the Day. April 26 — Warsaw 1R: Maria Vento-Kabchi def. Francesca Schiavone (9) 5–1, retired (thigh) Schiavone, with over 180 points to defend, will fall from #20 to no better than #26. April 27 — Warsaw 2R: Elena Bovina (5) def. Daniela Hantuchova 6–4 4–6 6–3 It doesn’t affect either of these players much, but it assures that Justine Hénin-Hardenne will return to the Top 20. April 28 — Warsaw 2R: Ana Ivanovic def. Vera Zvonareva (3) 6–2 6–4 Ivanovic is closing in on a Roland Garros seed, while Zvonareva continues her long slump April 29 — Warsaw QF: Ana Ivanovic def. Nathalie Déchy (6) 7–6(7–2) 6–4 And the progress goes on.... April 30 — Warsaw SF: Svetlana Kuznetsova (2) def. Kim Clijsters 2–6 6–2 6–3 And so the Clijsters streak ends at 17… May 1 — Warsaw F: Justine Hénin-Hardenne def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (2) 3–6 6–2 7–5 …but we still have a Belgian streak as Hénin-Hardenne wins #12 straight and returns to the Top 15. May 2 — Berlin 1R: Virginie Razzano def.Karolina Sprem (16) 4–6 6–1 6–2 Sprem’s season-long struggle finally drops her out of the Top 25 May 3 — Berlin 1R: Maria Kirilenko def. Fabiola Zuluaga 6–3 6–1 Zuluaga falls out of the Top 30 as Kirilenko continues to rise quickly this year. May 4 — Berlin 2R: Julia Schruff (WC) def. Anastasia Myskina (3) 6–2 1–6 6–4 The Myskina Meltdown continues; Schruff hits the Top 100 for the first time May 5 — Berlin 3R: Patty Schnyder (7) def. Kim Clijsters (11) 6–7(4–7) 6–5, retired (knee strain) At least it isn’t the wrist. But Clijsters is making noises as if she won’t play any more clay this year. May 6 — Berlin QF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (12) def. Maria Sharapova (1) 6–2 6–4 Hénin-Hardenne earns consecutive win #15, meaning that Sharapova won’t make #1 this week. May 7 — Berlin SF: Nadia Petrova (6) def. Jelena Jankovic (13) 6–4 6–7(5–7) 6–3 Jankovic had to finish off a win over Elena Bovina before playing the semifinal, and it may have cost her; she still returns to the Top 20, but it’s Petrova going for an actual title. Gulp! May 8 — Berlin F: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (12) def. Nadia Petrova (6) 6–3 4–6 6–3 Petrova does it to herself again — and so Hénin-Hardenne moves up to #11, wins consecutive match #17, and takes home her third title in four events this year; she’s undefeated on clay. May 9 — Rome 1R: Paola Suárez def. Karolina Sprem 6–3 6–0 Suárez wins her first match of the year as Sprem loses again — and, perhaps, falls out of the Top 50. May 10 — Rome 1R: Anna Smashnova def. Elena Likhovtseva (11) 6–1 6–3 Looks like no Top 16 Roland Garros ranking for Likhovtseva May 11 — Rome 2R: Francesca Schiavone def. Serena Williams (3) 7–6(7–2) 6–2 Rome 2R: Gisela Dulko def. Elena Dementieva (4) 7Ð5 6Ð4 And so we know the top Roland Garros seeding tiers: Davenport-Sharapova #1/#2 (in some order), Mauresmo #3, Serena #4, and Dementieva #5. May 12 — Rome 3R: Francesca Schiavone def. Ai Sugiyama (15) 6–3 7–5 One more win, and Schiavone is Italy’s #1 player again. Sugiyama remains Japan’s #2.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 252 May 13 — Rome QF: Maria Sharapova (1) def. Elena Bovina (9) 6–2 6–2 One win away from earning the #1 ranking two weeks from now; two wins from earning it next week May 14 — Rome SF: Patty Schnyder (8) def. Maria Sharapova (1) 3–6 6–3 6–1 Phht! Power doesn’t win everything on clay — and Sharapova won’t be taking the #1 ranking yet. But Schnyder is back in the Top Ten. May 15 — Rome F: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Patty Schnyder (8) 2–6 6–3 6–4 Mauresmo lost more points than she won in this match, but she defends her title and keeps alive her faint chances of regaining #1 at Roland Garros. May 16 — Istanbul 1R: Akiko Morigami def. Lisa Raymond (4) 6–1 6–2 So much for Raymond’s Roland Garros preparation. May 17 —Strasbourg 1R: Amy Frazier (7) def. (WC) 6–3 6–3 Strasbourg 1R: Zheng Jie def. Chanda Rubin 6Ð4 6Ð2 Istanbul 1R DOUBLES: Stanciute/Szavay (Q) def. Raymond/Stubbs (1) 6Ð4 6Ð4 Say goodnight, Claudine. This loss drops Schaul, last year’s Strasbourg winner, below #150. Rubin’s news is better: She lost, but at least she’s back. As for Raymond — don’t ask me what’s wrong. May 18 — Strasbourg 2R: Peng Shuai def. Tatiana Golovin (2) 6–4 3–6 7–5 Only two seeds made the quarterfinal at Strasbourg, but this was probably the biggest upset — and Golovin would have been #18 had she won it. May 19 — Strasbourg QF: Dally Randriantefy def. Karolina Sprem (6) 6–4 4–6 6–4 The good news is, Sprem won a couple of matches. The bad is, she really should have won more. May 20 — Strasbourg SF: Anabel Medina Garrigues def. Nathalie Déchy (1) 6–4 6–1 Medina Garrigues is Top 40, and Déchy continues to struggle since her Australian Open semifinal. May 21 — Istanbul F: Venus Williams (1) def. Nicole Vaidisova (2) 6–3 6–2 Venus wins her first title since Warsaw 2004, though it doesn’t help her ranking at all. May 23 — Roland Garros 1R: Maria Sanchez Lorenzo def. Anastasia Myskina (5) 6–4 4–6 6–0 Myskina becomes the first Roland Garros defending champion in the Open Era to lose her first round match; it’s likely that she will drop out of the Top Eight. May 24 — Roland Garros 1R: Anna Chakvetadze def. Paola Suárez (26) 7–5 1–6 6–0 Last year’s semifinalist Suárez, who just hasn’t been able to get healthy this year, falls out of the Top 50. May 25 — Roland Garros 1R DOUBLES: Dominguez Lino/Llagostera Vives def Navratilova/Sanchez-Vicario 6Ð4 3Ð6 6Ð3 Sanchez-Vicario, playing her first match of the year, once again fails to win the Roland Garros doubles — the one doubles Slam she has never won. May 26 — Roland Garros 2R: Anabel Medina Garrigues def. Magdalena Maleeva (24) 6–3 6–4 Medina Garrigues may reach the Top 30; she definitely drops Maleeva out May 27 — Roland Garros 3R: Sesil Karatantcheva def. Venus Williams (11) 6–3 1–6 6–1 Venus’s errors take her out of another Slam — and, just possibly, out of the Top 15. May 28 — Roland Garros 3R: Ana Ivanovic(29) def. Amélie Mauresmo (3) 6–4 3–6 6–4 Ivanovic puts herself in the Top 25 as Mauresmo clutches up another French Open May 29 — Roland Garros 4R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Kim Clijsters (14) 1–6 7–5 6–3 Roland Garros 4R: Elena Likhovtseva (16) def. Elena Dementieva (4) 7Ð6(7Ð3) 5Ð7 7Ð5 Davenport surprises almost everyone with one of the best clay wins of her career, while Likhovtseva knocks last year’s finalist out of the Top Five May 30 — Roland Garros 4R: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (12) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (6) 7Ð6(8Ð6) 4Ð6 7Ð5 It took over three hours, and Kuznetsova blew a 5–3 lead in the third, but Hénin-Hardenne is back in the Top Ten.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 253 May 31 — Roland Garros QF: Mary Pierce (23) def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 6–3 6–2 Roland Garros QF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (10) def. Maria Sharapova (2) 6–4 6–2 Davenport once again fails to win a major red clay event — but it won’t cost her the #1 ranking, because Sharapova still hasn’t won any clay events at the Tour level June 1 — Roland Garros QF DOUBLES: Morariu/Schnyder (8) def. Raymond/Stubbs (3) 6–4 6–3 Stubbs loses her chance to regain the #1 ranking as Morariu returns to the Top 15 and reaches her second straight Slam semifinal June 2 — Roland Garros SF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (10) def. Nadia Petrova (7) 6–2 6–3 It was as ugly as you would expect of Petrova in this context. Hénin-Hardenne reaches #7 and wins #23 straight. June 3 — Roland Garros SF DOUBLES: Ruano Pascual/Suárez (1) def. Petrova/Shaughnessy (5) 6Ð2 6Ð4 Roland Garros SF DOUBLES: Black/Huber (2) def. Morariu/Schnyder (8) 6Ð4 6Ð2 And so the final will have the #1 ranking on the line: If Black wins, she’s #1; otherwise, Ruano Pascual will keep the top spot. Huber reaches a career-high #5; Suárez falls to #3; Black is assured at least #2. June 4 — Roland Garros F: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (10) def. Mary Pierce (21) 6–1 6–1 Not much of a final, but it again clearly shows Hénin-Hardenne is back. June 5 — Roland Garros F DOUBLES: Ruano Pascual/Suárez (1) def. Black/Huber (2) 4–6 6–3 6–3 Ruano Pascual stays #1, and the top seeds win Roland Garros #4 and Slam #8. June 6 — Birmingham 1R DOUBLES: Bartoli/Tanasugarn def. (WC) Kirilenko/Sharapova 6–4 6–0 Last year’s champions fall in their opener. Sharapova now has no doubles wins in the last year. June 7 — Birmingham 2R: Anna Chakvetadze def. Evgenia Linetskaya (12) 4–6 6–4 6–4 Let’s hope Linetskaya isn’t developing a case of Russian Disease; she will not be earning a Wimbledon seed. [As noted previously, she doesn’t have Russian Disease; she has her father, which is worse.] June 8 — Birmingham 2R: Laura Granville def. def. Alicia Molik (2) 6–4 6–2 Molik, who is still a unsteady due to her ear infection, loses any chance to be seeded #8 at Wimbledon. June 9 — Birmingham 3R: Anna Chakvetadze def. Shinobu Asagoe (6) 6–4 6–4 Chakvetadze is closing in on the Top 40 after dropping Asagoe out of the Top 25. June 10 — Birmingham QF: Tatiana Golovin (5) def. Anna Chakvetadze 6–4 7–6(7–3) Golovin keeps herself in the Top 20, and blocks Chakvetadze’s run toward the Top 40. June 11 — Birmingham SF DOUBLES: Daniilidou/Russell def. Black/Huber (1) 6–4 7–6(7–3) Daniilidou, who beat Vaidisova and Sugiyama here and scared Sharapova, gives more evidence of finally recovering her form. June 12 — Birmingham F: Maria Sharapova (1) def. Jelena Jankovic (3) 6–2 4–6 6–1 Sharapova wins her first title since Doha, and keeps her vague hopes of reaching #1 vaguely alive. June 13 — Eastbourne 1R: Nathalie Déchy (8) def. Nicole Vaidisova 6–3 6–2 Vaidisova looks like she ought to be a grass player, but she’s only 1–3 in her career on the stuff. June 14 — Eastbourne 1R: Maria Vento-Kabchi (LL) def. Daniela Hantuchova 6–2 4–6 6–4 Vento-Kabchi knocks Hantuchova, last year’s finalist, out of the Top 25 June 15 — Eastbourne 2R: Vera Dushevina (Q) def. Amélie Mauresmo (1) 6–4 6–4 Mauresmo had almost no chance of reaching #1 at Wimbledon, but the chances just went from worse to much worse. June 16 — ’s-Hertogenbosch QF: Gisela Dulko (6) def. Nadia Petrova (2) 6–4 4–6 6–3 Dulko hits a career high of probably #29 as Petrova again fails to win a title. June 17 — Eastbourne SF: Kim Clijsters (7) def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (2) 6–4 3–6 6–4 Since she faces Vera Dushevina in the final, it looks like Clijsters will be winning her first Eastbourne title. June 18 — Eastbourne F: Kim Clijsters (7) def. Vera Dushevina (Q) 7–5 6–0 Clijsters may have hurt her back, but she wins her best-ever grass title.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 254 June 20 — Wimbledon 1R: Tamarine Tanasugarn def. Karolina Sprem (25) 6–2 6–2 Sprem’s continued slump costs her her Top 50 ranking. June 21 — Wimbledon 1R: Eleni Daniilidou def. Justine Hénin-Hardenne (7) 7–6(10–8) 2–6 7–5 So much for Hénin-Hardenne’s winning streak — and her hopes of moving above #7. June 22 — Wimbledon 2R: def. Tamarine Tanasugarn 7–6(7–1) 6–2 Perry wins her first match since Auckland, and drops Tanasugarn to about #80. June 23 — Wimbledon 1R DOUBLES: Cohen-Aloro/Sfar def. Raymond/Stubbs (3) 6–4 3–6 6–2 A pair of nobodies defeat one of the defending champions; Stubbs may lose her Top Five spot June 24 — Wimbledon 3R: Anastasia Myskina (9) def. Jelena Jankovic (17) 6–0 5–7 10–8 A crazy back-and-forth match, but maybe it will help Myskina’s head. At the very least, she moves ahead of Alicia Molik in the rankings, which should keep her Top Ten. June 25 — Wimbledon 3R: Jill Craybas def. Serena Williams (4) 6–3 7–6(7–4) A stiff and sick Serena loses to a healthy Craybas — and falls out of the Top Five. June 27 — Wimbledon 4R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Kim Clijsters (15) 6–3 6–7(4–7) 6–3 Davenport clinches the #1 ranking, no matter what Maria Sharapova does. June 28 — Wimbledon QF: Venus Williams (14) def. Mary Pierce (12) 6–0 7–6(12–10) Venus reaches her first Slam semifinal since Wimbledon 2003. June 29 — Wimbledon QF DOUBLES: Black/Huber (2) def. Hantuchova/Sugiyama (7) 6–3 6–2 In a match between last year’s finalists, Huber knocks her ex-partner Sugiyama out of the Top Ten. June 30 — Wimbledon SF: Venus Williams (14) def. Maria Sharapova (2) 7–6(7–2) 6–1 Venus puts herself back in the Top Ten and pretty well kills Sharapova’s #1 hopes. July 1 — Wimbledon SF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Amélie Mauresmo 6–7(5–7) 7–6(7–4) 6–4 Mauresmo held a lead in every set. But this was a Slam semifinal; what did you expect? July 2 — Wimbledon F: Venus Williams (14) def Lindsay Davenport (1) 4–6 7–6(7–4) 9–7 Davenport blows another Slam as Venus earns her first Slam title since the 2001 U. S. Open July 3 — Wimbledon F DOUBLES: Black/Huber (2) def. Kuznetsova/Mauresmo 6–2 6–2 Black defends the only Slam she’s ever won, and Huber wins her first and reaches a career-high #4. July 11 — Modena 1R: Yan Zi def. Marta Domachowska (4) 2–6 7–6(7–5) 6–1 There were only three players ranked above #60 in the Modena draw, and this is one down. It may be a very dull week.... July 12 — Modena 1R: Flavia Pennetta (2) def. Virginia Ruano Pascual 6–2 6–7(7–9) 7–6(7–2) It could hardly get closer, but it puts Pennetta back in the Top 25. July 13 — Modena 2R: Agnes Szavay (Q) def. Zuzana Ondraskova 6–3 6–3 Szavay reaches herfirst WTA quarterfinal and moves above #250. July 14 — Modena 2R: Tathiana Garbin def. Jelena Kostanic (6) 6–2 6–3 Kostanic has fallen from #35 to #63 this year. Whatever is plaguing her doesn’t seem to be going away. July 15 — Modena QF: Anges Szavay (Q) def. Francesca Schiavone (1) 6–1 6–4 Another week, another lack of a title for Schiavone; she hasn’t reached a semifinal since Warsaw 2004. July 16 — Modena SF: Anna Smashnova (5) def. Flavia Pennetta (2) 7–5 6–3 Pennetta won’t becomne Italy’s #2, but Smashnova has her first final since winning Vienna 2004. July 17 — Modena F: Anna Smashnova (5) def. Tathiana Garbin 6–6(3–0), retired (Heat Exhaustion) And Smashnova rises to 10–0 in finals in her career — though she still is below the Top 50. July 18 — Cincinnati 1R: Chanda Rubin def. Laura Granville 6–3 6–4 Rubin plays only her third event of the year, and wins her first match. [But she won’t be able to play again this year.] July 19 — Palermo 1R: Tszvetana Pironkova def. Silvia Farina Elia (1) 7–6(7–3) 2–0, retired It may not mean much, given Farina’s shoulder problems [and her upcoming decision to retire], but Pironkova, who is playing only her second WTA event, now has a Top 25 win.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 255 July 20 — Cincinnati 2R: Shahar Peer def. Ai Sugiyama (6) 5–7 7–6(8–6) 6–4 With Anna Smashnova’s loss to Pironkova at Palermo (ending her six match losing streak), there is a faint chance that Peer could become ’s #1 this week. July 21 — Cincinnati 2R: Akiko Morigami def. Vera Zvonareva (2) 6–3 6–2 Whatever it is that has Zvonareva so messed up obviously isn’t getting better. July 22 — Cincinnati QF: Bethanie Mattek (Q) def. Jelena Jankovic (3) 6–1 0–6 6–2 Huh? It’s not just the scoreline; it’s that Bethanie Mattek had never made a WTA quarterfinal until now, and here she is in a semifinal with a Top 20 win. July 23 — Cincinnati SF: Akiko Morigami def. Daniela Hantuchova (4) 6–4 6–4 Morigami makes her first career final and puts a real crimp in Hantuchova’s Top 20 hopes. July 24 — Cincinnati F: Patty Schnyder (1) def. Akiko Morigami 6–4 6–0 Second title of the year for Schnyder, though it doesn’t help her ranking July 25 — Stanford 1R: Amy Frazier def. Maria Vento-Kabchi 6–3 6–0 Amy Frazier. California hardcourts. Clearly the woman and the hour have met. July 26 — Stanford 1R: Meghann Shaughnessy (Q) def. Vera Zvonareva (5) 6–3 1–6 7–6(8–6) It just keeps getting uglier for Zvonareva.... July 27 — Stanford 2R: Patty Schnyder (3) def. Marion Bartoli 6–4 7–5 Schnyder knocks Bartoli out of the Top 30 — and Anastasia Myskina out of the Top Ten. Either Schnyder or Kim Clijsters will replace Myskina. July 28 — Stanford 2R: Anna-Lena Grönefeld def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 5–0, retired Davenport’s back acted up again — and that means her #1 ranking, which had seemed safe for the next several months, will be under severe threat in two weeks. July 29 — Stanford QF: Anna-Lena Grönefeld def. Nathalie Déchy (6) 2–6 6–2 6–3 Grönefeld evidently wants to prove that her result here wasn’t pure fluke.... July 30 — Stanford SF: Venus Williams (2) def. Patty Schnyder (3) 2–6 7–6(7–4) 6–2 Patty Schnyder had five match points to beat Venus and clinch a Top Ten spot. She obviously blew them all. July 31 — Stanford F: Kim Clijsters (4) def. Venus Williams (2) 7–5 6–2 Clijsters wins her fourth title of the year and puts herself back in the Top Ten. August 1 — San Diego 1R: Anna Chakvetadze def. Tatiana Golovin (12) 6–4 6–4 San Diego 1R: Sesil Karatantcheva def. Shinobu Asagoe (13) 6Ð1 0Ð6 7Ð5 Asagoe will, and Golovin might, drop out of the Top 25, while Chakvetadze closes in on the Top Thirty. August 2 — San Diego 1R: Mashona Washington def. Karolina Sprem 2–6 7–6(7–1) 6–1 San Diego 2R: Peng Shuai def. Elena Dementieva 7Ð5 6Ð4 San Diego 1R DOUBLES: Domachowska/Kirilenko def. Asagoe/Peer 4Ð6 7Ð6(20Ð18) 7Ð6(7Ð5) After (I think) the longest tiebreak of the year, Asagoe falls out of the Top 25 in doubles as well as singles; Sprem will fall to around #80; Dementieva loses her chance to return to the Top Five. August 3 — San Diego 2R: Sania Mirza def. Nadia Petrova (4) 6–2 6-1 Mirza puts herself in the Top 50 as the bottom half of the San Diego draw is nearly emptied of seeds August 4 — San Diego R16: Anna Chakvetadze def. Elena Likhovtseva (9) 6–3 6–1 Chakvetadze has almost clinched her Top 30 spot, and Likhovtseva falls to #20. August 5 — San Diego QF: Peng Shuai def. Kim Clijsters 6–4 6–4 San Diego QF: Akiko Morigami def. Anna Chakvetadze 6Ð3 6Ð4 San Diego QF: Ai Sugiyama def. Sesil Karatantcheva 6Ð1 6Ð2 On a day when two of our surprise youngsters fell (meaning that neither will hit the Top 30), Peng Shuai wins thematch of her life and hits a career high. As does Morigami. And Sugiyama finally has a semifinal this year. This will prove to be the only hardcourt loss of the year for Clijsters.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 256 August 6 — San Diego SF DOUBLES: Hantuchova/Sugiyama (5) def. Black/Stubbs (1) 6Ð7(10Ð12) 6Ð4 6Ð3 San Diego SF DOUBLES: Martinez/Ruano Pascual (3) def. Likhovtseva/Zvonareva 1Ð3, retired (Zvonareva/ankle) San Diego SF: Ai Sugiyama def. Akiko Morigami 6Ð4 4Ð3, retired (knee tendonitis) Sugiyama is Top 30 and Japan’s #1 again — and Cara Black suffers her first loss of 2005 with Rennae Stubbs, meaning that she will not become the doubles #1, at least this week. August 7 — San Diego F: Mary Pierce (6) def. Ai Sugiyama 6–0 6–3 Pierce wins her first better-than-Tier-III title since Roland Garros 2000, and is closing in on the Top Ten. Sugiyama at least returns to the Top 30, but she had a really tough day, losing the doubles also. August 8 — Los Angeles 1R: Aiko Nakamura (Q) def. Flavia Pennetta (10) 6–3 6–4 Pennetta, last year’s champion, will probably fall out of the Top 30. August 9 — Los Angeles 1R: Karolina Sprem def. Yuliana Fedak (Q) 6–4 7–6(13–11) Finally, a win for Sprem! August 10 — Los Angeles 2R: Eleni Daniilidou def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (2) 6–4 6–4 What is wrong with Kuznetsova? August 11 — Stockholm 2R: Anastasia Myskina (2) def. Camille Pin 6–7(3–7) 6–4 6–1 Why can’t Myskina have an easy match even against the easy players? August 12 — Los Angeles QF: Daniela Hantuchova def. Maria Sharapova walkover (pectoral strain) No #1 for Sharapova this week. Aren’t players supposed to at least reach #1 before they lose the ranking to injury? [Sharapova in fact would make #1 for one week, then lose the top spot again.] August 13 — Los Angeles SF DOUBLES: Dementieva/Pennetta def. Martinez/Ruano Pascual (2) 6Ð4 6Ð7)6Ð8) 6Ð1 Dementieva lost an ugly shocker in singles (6Ð3 6Ð4 to Hantuchova), but she turned around to end Ruano Pascual’s 16-match doubles winning streak. August 14 — Los Angeles F: Kim Clijsters (5) def. Daniela Hantuchova (9) 6–4 6–1 Her tour-leading fifth title of the year puts Clijsters back up at #8. August 15 — Canadian Open 1R: Shinobu Asagoe def. (WC) 6–2 6–2 On a day when absolutely nothing else happened, Asagoe at least broke her five match losing streak. August 16 — Canadian Open 1R: Li Na def. Jelena Jankovic (11) 6–4 5–7 6–2 No career high or Top 16 U. S. Open seed for Jankovic.... August 17 — Canadian Open 2R: Gisela Dulko def. Tatiana Golovin (16) 1–6 6–0 6–1 Looks like Golovin hurt something again. August 18 — Canadian Open 3R: Gisela Dulko def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (3) 7–6(7–3) 7–6(10–8) Kuznetsova’s back spasms clinch a Top 30 ranking for Dulko August 19 — Canadian Open QF: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Nadia Petrova (6) 4–6 7–5 2–0, retired Here we go again. Not only is Petrova hurt, but she won’t get a Top Eight U. S. Open seed. August 20 — Canadian Open SF: Justine Hénin-Hardenne (4) def. Amélie Mauresmo (2) 7–5 3–6 6–1 That pretty well kills Mauresmo’s faint hopes of regaining the #1 ranking any time soon. August 21 — Canadian Open F: Kim Clijsters (7) def. Justine Hénin-Hardenne (4) 7–5 6–1 Title #6 of 2005 for Clijsters puts her in the Top Five, and drops Olympic champion Hénin-Hardenne out. August 22 — New Haven 1R: Meghann Shaughnessy def. Nathalie Déchy (9) 7–6(7–3) 2–6 6–4 Shaughnessy shows signs of life as she knocks out last year’s finalist. August 23 — New Haven 2R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Kveta Peschke (Q) 6–4 6–1 Not much of a match, but Davenport is playing and has chances to regain the #1 ranking she just lost. August 24 — New Haven 2R: Daniela Hantuchova def. Patty Schnyder (11) 5–7 6–2 6–4 New Haven 2R: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Elena Likhovtseva 6–1 6–3 With these results, Likhovtseva is back out of the Top 20 and Hantuchova is back in.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 257 August 25 — New Haven QF: Anabel Medina Garrigues def. Elena Dementieva (4) 6–4 6–3 Medina Garrigues hits the Top 30; Dementieva loses her last chance to earn points before her USO final comes off. August 26 — New Haven SF: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Anna Chakvetadze 6–3 6–3 It was a lot tougher than the score — Chakvetadze made a lot of nervous errors on big points — but it lets Davenport reclaim the #1 ranking for the next fortnight at least. Chakvetadze still has her first WTA semifinal and a Top 25 ranking. [Sadly, it seems to use up all she had; the rest of 2005 is all downhill.] August 27 — New Haven F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Amélie Mauresmo (2) 6–4 6–4 Davenport picks up her first title since Amelia Island and improves her chances of staying #1 after the U. S. Open. August 29 — U. S. Open 1R: Ekaterina Bychkova def. Svetlana Kuznetsova (5) 6–3 6–2 Bychkova, playing in her first event above the Tier III level, defeats the defending USO champion. The injured Kuznetsova will probably fall out of the Top Ten. August 30 — U. S. Open 1R: Elena Dementieva (6) def. Lucie Safarova 7–5 6–3 It was an upset-less day; 16 of 16 seeds ina ction advanced. Here, last year’s finalist ends Safarova’s four-match winning streak. August 31 — U. S. Open 2R: Maria Vento-Kabchi def. (18) Ana Ivanovic 3–6 7–5 6–1 What is probably Ivanovic’s worst loss of the year costs her her chance to reach the Top 15. September 1 — U. S. Open 2R: Yoon Jeong Cho def. Gisela Dulko (27) 6–4 6–3 Fifteen of sixteen bottom half seeds reached the third round; Dulko is the only exception. September 2 — U. S. Open 2R DOUBLES: Asagoe/Srebotnik (10) def. Likhovtseva/Maleeva 6–2 6–4 She didn’t say anything at the time, but odds are that this will be Maleeva’s last Slam match. [It was.] September 3 — U. S. Open 3R: Elena Dementieva (6) def. Anna Chakvetadze (29) 6–1 4–6 7–6(7–5) U. S. Open 3R: Patty Schnyder (11) def. Shinobu Asagoe (24) 6Ð1 6Ð3 Chakvetadze had this won as Dementieva produced 19 double-faults — but still lost, and is out of the Top 30 as a result. Asagoe, too, falls out of the Top 30. September 4 — U. S. Open 4R: Venus Williams (10) def. Serena Williams (8) 7–6(7–5) 6–2 It was typically bad, but it makes Venus once again the #1 Williams September 5 — U. S. Open 4R: Mary Pierce (12) def. Justine Hénin-Hardenne (7) 76–3 6–3 Hénin-Hardenne hasn’t won an event away from clay this year — and that puts Pierce on the brink of a return to the Top Ten for the first time in four and a half years. September 6 — U. S. Open QF: Kim Clijsters (4) def. Venus Williams (10) 4–6 7–5 6–1 Clijsters really ought to have lost this — she was down 6–4 4–2 — but Venus fell apart (tired? sick?) after that, meaning that she won’t be returning to the Top Five. September 7 — U. S. Open QF: Elena Dementieva (6) def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 6–2 3–6 7–6(8–6) U. S. Open QF DOUBLES: Raymond/Stosur (6) def. Black/Stubbs 5Ð7 6Ð4 6Ð4 U. S. Open QF DOUBLES: Martinez/Ruano Pascual (3) def. Yan/Zheng 6Ð3 6Ð4 The singles result means that Lindsay Davenport loses the #1 ranking; Maria Sharapova regains the top spot in singles. The two doubles results combine to mean that Virginia Ruano Pascual remains #1; Cara Black will fall at least four points short. September 8 — U. S. Open SF DOUBLES: Raymond/Stosur (6) def. Martinez/Ruano Pascual (3) 7Ð5 4Ð6 7Ð6(7Ð2) Raymond/Stosur extend their winning streak to nine and assure that no one will win two Slams this year. Stosur is now Top Ten, giving Australia three Top Ten doubles players (Molik, Stosur, Stubbs) September 9 — U. S. Open SF: Kim Clijsters (4) def. Maria Sharapova (1) 6–2 6–7(4–7) 6–3 U. S. Open SF: (12) Mary Pierce def. (6) Elena Dementieva 3Ð6 6Ð2 6Ð2 Clijsters is up to #3, Pierce is #6 and in her second Slam final of the year; Dementieva falls to #8. September 10 — U. S. Open F: Kim Clijsters (4) def. Mary Pierce (12) 6–3 6–1 At last, Kim Clijsters earns the Slam she so long ago proved herself good enough to win.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 258 September 11 — U. S. Open F DOUBLES: Raymond/Stosur (6) def. Dementieva/Pennetta (14) 6Ð2 5Ð7 6Ð3 It was a match nobody really wanted to win, but Stosur picks up her first women’s doubles Slam, and Raymond her fourth (and first without Rennae Stubbs); Stosur, as noted above, is now Top Ten. September 12 — Bali 1R: Francesca Schiavone (4) def. Jamea Jackson 6–4 3–6 6–4 It’s only one win, but it will probably put Schiavone in the Top 25. September 13 — Bali 1R: Alicia Molik (3) def. Mariana Diaz-Oliva 7–6(8–6) 6–3 Molik at last scores her first win since Miami. September 14 — Bali 2R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Rika Fujiwara 6–3 6–2 A meaningless match (they were all meaningless on this day; there were no surprises and no close singles matches), but Davenport is apparently over her U. S. Open problems. September 15 — Bali 2R: Alona Bondarenko def. Alicia Molik (3) 6–4 6–2 Maybe Molik isn’t as recovered as we hoped. September 16 — Bali QF: Francesca Schiavone (4) def. Flavia Pennetta (6) 5–7 6–3 7–5 On a day when all higher-seeded players/teams won, Schiavone assures that she will be Italy’s #1. September 17 — Bali SF: Francesca Schiavone (4) def. Patty Schnyder (2) 1–6 6–4, retired (heat) Schiavone reaches only her third career final, and her best. Problem is, Lindsay Davenport is waiting. September 18 — Bali F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Francesca Schiavone (4) 6–2 6–4 You aren’t actually surprised, are you? September 19 — Beijing 1R: Mariana Diaz-Oliva def. Alicia Molik (5) 7–6(7–1) 6–7(4–7) 6–4 Here we go again. September 20 — Portoroz 1R: Vanessa Henke def. Silvia Farina Elia (1) 6–1 6–7(3–7) 6–4 Farina Elia loses her fifth straight and loses her chance for a return to the Top 25 as Henke wins her first WTA match of the year. September 21 — Beijing 2R: Sun Tiantian (WC) def. Serena Williams (4) 6–2 7–6(9–7) OK, Serena, how much longer will it take you to figure it out: Either you’re a tennis player or you’re a psuedo-celebrity. Lose the life — or lose the tennis. September 22 — Beijing 2R: Shinobu Asagoe def. Jill Craybas 6–2 6–4 In her first event since falling out of the Top 30, Asagoe seems to be trying to get back in; this moves her back above #35. September 23 — Beijing QF: Marta Domachowska def. Venus Williams (3) Walkover (Knee) Another day, another Williams out. September 24 — Beijing SF: Maria Kirilenko def. Maria Sharapova 6–4 2–1, retired (pectoral) Kolkata SF: Karolina Sprem (7) def. Elena Likhovtseva (2) 4Ð6 6Ð4 6Ð1 Kolkata SF DOUBLES: Myskina/Likhovtseva (1) def. Mirza/Ruano Pascual (4) 4Ð6 6Ð3 7Ð5 Ruano Pascual just can’t seem to secure her grip on the #1 doubles ranking; Sharapova doesn’t do much for her hold on #1 (she’ll keep the ranking, but her Race standing is fragile), and Sprem, who hadn’t been past a quarterfinal this year, reaches her first final in over two years — though she will lose it to Myskina, who has been struggling herself. September 25 — Beijing F: Maria Kirilenko def. Anna-Lena Grönefeld (9) 6–3 6–4 Kirilenko becomes the lowest-ranked Tier II winner in ages — and hits the Top 30 September 26 — Luxembourg 1R: Anna Chakvetadze def. Magdalena Maleeva (WC) 7–5 2–6 6–4 At least people got a long almost-last look at Maleeva. Sadly, this will drop her out of the Top 60. September 27 — GuangZhou 1R: Li Ting def. Vera Zvonareva (1) 6–3 7–6 Zvonareva plays her first event since San Diego, but without much success. September 28 — GuangZhou 2R: Victoria Azarenka (Q) def. Martina Sucha (8) 6–3 6–2 Azarenka makes her first quarterfinal and costs last year’s finalist about a dozen ranking spots. September 29 — Luxembourg 2R: Roberta Vinci def. Patty Schnyder (3) 7–6(7–2) 5–7 6–4 Vinci hits the Top 50 and keeps Schnyder at #10.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 259 September 30 — GuangZhou QF: Yan Zi def. Li Na (3) 6–7(5–7) 7–5 7–6(7–4) Yan drops last year’s winner out of the Top 50. Li said earlier she felt confused by Chinese behavior toward their players. Evidently so. October 1 — Luxembourg SF: Anne-Lena Grönefeld def. Dinara Safina (7) 6–4 5–7 6–4 Grönefeld blew a Top 20 chance last week, but this clinches it. October 2 — Luxembourg F DOUBLES: Raymond/Stosur (2) def. Black/Stubbs (1) 7–5 6–1 Not only do Raymond/Stosur win consecutive match #14, but they again block Black’s quest for #1. October 3 — Filderstadt Qualifying F: Eleni Daniilidou (5) def. Kveta Peschke (2) 4Ð6 7Ð6(8Ð6) 7Ð6(7Ð2) More progress for Daniilidou: She makes it through a pretty tough qualifying draw. October 4 — Filderstadt 1R DOUBLES: Dementieva/Pennetta def. Black/Stubbs (1) 7–5 6–4 There go Black’s chances to take the #1 spot, probably for a long time; she was defending champion. October 5 — Filderstadt 2R: Flavia Pennetta def. Justine Hénin-Hardenne (4) 6–4 6–3 So much for Hénin-Hardenne getting to #4 in the next few weeks.... October 6 — Japan Open 2R: Vera Zvonareva def. Shahar Peer 6–3 7–5 Zvonareva reaches her first quarterfinal since Rome, and against a pretty good opponent. Progress? October 7 —Filderstadt QF: Elena Dementieva (5) def. Kim Clijsters (2) 6–3 3–6 6–2 No #1 ranking for Clijsters this week. She may not even move up to #2; it depends on Lindsay Davenport. October 8 —Filderstadt SF: Amélie Mauresmo (2) def. Elena Dementieva (5) 6–3 6–4 How could Dementieva be so good on Friday (she said, quite possibly correctly, that it was the best match she ever played) and this bad on Saturday? October 9 — Filderstadt F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Amélie Mauresmo (3) 6–2 6–4 Davenport defends her title, holds the #2 ranking — and earns her fiftieth career title. October 10 — Moscow 1R: Elena Likhovtseva def. Vera Dushevina 3–6 6–2 7–5 Likhovtseva drops her young countrywoman out of the Top 40. October 11 — Moscow 1R: Flavia Pennetta def. Nathalie Déchy 6–3 7–5 What is with Pennetta all of a sudden? Until Filderstadt, she had only one indoor WTA win in her life, and that as a Lucky Loser, and now she has three in ten days, two of them over Top 15 players. October 12 — Moscow 2R: Maria Sharapova (1) def. Anna-Lena Grönefeld 1–6 2–4, retired Grönefeld was six points from the match when she twisted her ankle and had to retire. October 13 — Moscow 2R: Francesca Schiavone def. Amélie Mauresmo (2) 6–1 6–1 Mauresmo, who said she had trouble adjusting to the surface and played very badly, loses the chance to reach #3 in the Race. October 14 — Moscow QF: Dinara Safina def. Maria Sharapova (1) 1–6 6–4 7–5 Safina wins the match Grönefeld couldn’t win, and hits the Top 20 along the way. October 15 — Moscow SF DOUBLES: Black/Stubbs (1) def. Likhovtseva/Zvonareva (4) 3–6 6–3 6–3 Cara Black, after sundry bad failures, finally attains the #1 doubles ranking. October 16 — Moscow F: Mary Pierce (3) def. Francesca Schiavone 6–46–3 Pierce didn’t face a Top 15 opponent, but she still wins her second Tier I of the year and is up to #5. October 17 — Zürich 1R: Magdalena Maleeva (WC) def. Anna Chakvetadze 6–1 6–1 Maleeva starts her last WTA event with a win October 18 — Zürich 1R: Jelena Jankovic def. Alicia Molik (8) 6–3 4–2, retired (ear infection) The Endless Illness deals Molik its worst blow yet; Molik will be falling out of the Top 20. [She will later announce that she is quitting the Tour until and unless she can shake this thing.] October 19 — Zürich 2R: Patty Schnyder (6) def. Magdalena Maleeva 6–3 6–2 And that’s it. The last match of Magdalena Maleeva’s career, at the event where she won her first Tier I title. Thanks for sixteen impressive years.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 260 October 20 — Zürich 2R: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Daniela Hantuchova 3–6 7–5 6–2 Hantuchova served for the match, was broken, and was never the same as Davenport regains #1. October 21 — Zürich QF: Ana Ivanovic def. Katarina Srebotnik (Q) 6–3 6–1 Ivanovic keeps Srebotnik out of the Top 30 and all but clinches a year-end Top 20 ranking. October 22 — Zürich SF DOUBLES: Black/Stubbs (2) def. Asagoe/Srebotnik 6–7(5–7) 7–5 6–2 It wasn’t easy, but Black keeps the #1 doubles ranking for at least another week. October 23 — Zürich F: Lindsay Davenport (1) def. Patty Schnyder (6) 7–6(7–5) 6–3 Davenport wins her third straight title and regains the lead in the Race October 24 — Hasselt 1R: def. Silvia Farina Elia (6) 6–3 6–2 This will be Farina Elia’s last match. A sad way to end a quietly excellent career. October 25 — Linz 1R: Kveta Peschke def. Vera Zvonareva 7–5 7–5 Zvonareva has about 300 more points to defend by year-end. If she doesn’t wake up soon, she’ll end 2005 around #40. October 26— Linz 2R: Kveta Peschke def. Elena Dementieva (2) 6–3 7–5 Hasselt 2R: Julia Schruff def. Els Callens (WC) 6Ð3 6Ð1 Callens ends her career (except for the doubles here with Kim Clijsters); Dementieva does almost as good a job on her year-end Championships chances. October 27 — Linz QF DOUBLES: Dulko/Peschke def. Black/Stubbs (1) 7–6(7–2) 6–4 It’s not quite certain, but this probably means that doubles #1 Black won’t make the year-end Championships. [That statement, obviously, was wrong, but it took some strange circumstances to get her in.] October 28 — Hasselt QF: Michaella Krajicek def. Nathalie Déchy (2) 6–4 6–3 Krajicek closes in on theTop50 as Déchy suffers her worst loss of the year. October29 — Linz SF: Nadia Petrova (3) def. Kveta Peschke 6–3 6–4 Peschke falls just short of the Top30 — but Petrova is in another final, and she’ll face Patty Schnyder, who hurt her wrist in the semifinal. October 30 — Linz F: Nadia Petrova (3) def. Patty Schnyder (4) 4–6 6–3 6–1 A (self-inflicted) bad wrist proves more of a problem than a bad head as Petrova wins her first title. October 31 — Philadelphia 1R: Tatiana Panova def. Jelena Jankovic (8) 6–4 3–6 7–5 A still-sick Jankovic, gasping and leaning on her racquet between points, loses her chance to end the year in the Top 20. It’s starting to look as if Jankovic might be yet another Mysterious Career- Threatening Illness victim. November 1 — Philadelphia 1R: Sesil Karatantcheva def. Vera Zvonareva (9) 7–5 6–3 Zvonareva, last year’s finalist, will end the year outside the Top 40 November 2 — Philadelphia 2R: Elena Dementieva (4) def. 6–3 6–4 Dementieva is one win away from qualifying for the year-end Championships. November 3 — Philadelphia QF DOUBLES: Likhovtseva/Zvonareva (3) def. Alves/Rolle (Q) 6–2 6–4 Despite playing for only half a year, and Zvonareva’s summer injury break, the Russians make the year-end Championships November 4 — Philadelphia QF: Elena Dementieva (4) def. Kveta Peschke 4–6 6–0 6–3 Dementieva earns revenge for the previous week and, with Justine Hénin-Hardenne not playing, qualifies for the WTA Championships. November 5 — Quebec City SF: Amy Frazier (6) def. Nathalie Déchy (1) 6–4 7–5 Frazier reaches her first final since the start of the year, and she will go on to win the title. November 6 — Philadelphia F: Amélie Mauresmo (3) def. Elena Dementieva (4) 7–5 2–6 7–5 Mauresmo completes her third title at Philadelphia; she has won the tournament every time it has been played in its revival. November 8 — Los Angeles Championships RR: Mary Pierce def.Kim Clijsters (2) 6–1 4–6 7–6(7–2) This doesn’t quite kill the chances for Clijsters to end the year at #1 — but it really, really doesn’t help.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 261 November 9 — Los Angeles RR: Amélie Mauresmo (4) def. Kim Clijsters (2) 6–3 7–6(7–4) And that really is that: Clijsters is 0Ð2 and unlikely to make the semifinal; Davenport is 2Ð0 and nearly sure to do so; Davenport will end the year at #1. November 10 — Los Angeles RR: Amélie Mauresmo (4) def. Elena Dementieva 6–2 6–3 And with that, Kim Clijsters is formally out of the Los Angeles semifinal, and Lindsay Davenport (even though she lost on this day to Maria Sharapova) is in — which makes it official: Davenport is the year- end #1, and the last year-end under a ranking system with quality points in it to give it some semblance of reality. November 11 — Los Angeles RR: Mary Pierce def. Amélie Mauresmo (4) 2–6 6–4 6–2 Pierce is the only player to go 3Ð0 in the Championships. Mauresmo is also in the semifinal, so the #4 ranking is still in play — but this can only help Pierce. November 12 — Los Angeles SF: Mary Pierce def. Lindsay Davenport (1) 7–6(7–5) 7–6(8–6) Los Angeles SF DOUBLES: Black/Stubbs (1) def. Likhovtseva/Zvonareva 6Ð4 7Ð6(7Ð4) Black clinches the year-end doubles #1; Pierce sends Davenport home without any title bigger than a Tier I this year. November 13 — Los Angeles F: Amélie Mauresmo (4) def. Mary Pierce 5–7 7–6(7–3) 6–4 Mauresmo, helped by a rash of Pierce errors in the last two games, finally wins a Big One, and moves up to the year-end #3.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 262 WTA Tour History Who Won What Summary — Singles The following table shows all active Tier II or higher titles and lists which of the top players have won them. The figures in the boxes show how many times the player has won each event and the year of her earliest win (e.g. by the Australian Open, in the column for Capriati, we see 2/01 — Capriati has won the Australian Open two times, starting in 2001). Looking at this list can give a measure both of a player’s success (Davenport, e.g., has a lot of titles) and her weaknesses (but Davenport has big holes in the clay season) The players listed are the Top Ten, plus the major players of recent years. Several of these players have also won Tier II events that are no longer played. The list: Clijsters — (1/02), Leipzig (2/00); Davenport — Atlanta (1/97), Chicago (1/97), Princess Cup (1/99), Scottsdale (1/01); Dementieva — (1/03); Hingis — Hamburg (2/98); Martinez — Barcelona (1/ 91), Hamburg (1/95), Houston (1/93), Stratton Mountain (2/93), Tampa (1/89); Mauresmo — Nice (1/01); Pierce — Princess Cup (1/95); Schnyder — Hannover (1/98); Seles — Bahia (1/01), Barcelona (1/92), Chicago (1/93), Essen (1/92), Houston (3/89), Milan (1/91), Princess Cup (5/91), San Antonio (1/90), Tampa (1/90); S. Williams — Hannover (1/00), Princess Cup (2/00), Scottsdale (1/02), Leipzig (1/02); V. Williams — Hamburg (2/99). In addition, some of our players won some of these events before they reached Tier II status: Clijsters won Luxembourg 1999, 2001, 2002, 2003; Martinez won Paris 1990.

It’s harder to pick these players, as there are more doubles winners out there. I finally chose to list the Top Ten, meaning Black, Stosur, Raymond, Ruano Pascual, Stubbs, Huber, Likhovtseva, Kuznetsova, Martinez, and Zvonareva — plus Serena Williams as the other active player with the Career Slam (Venus has an identical record except that she didn’t win Leipzig 2002), Suárez and Sugiyama as the other top active players, plus Hingis and Sanchez-Vicario as the other most successful players of recent years. The final lines of the table differ slightly from the singles table. The line “Events won” lists the distinct active Tier II titles each player has won. Serena, for instance, has won seven titles at these 30 events — but she has two Wimbledons and two Australian Opens, so she has only five distinct titles. The next line, “To 2000,” lists each player’s titles at all Tier II+ events in the years leading up to 2000 (inclusive). We then show her total for the 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and the grand total. Note

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 264 that the total may be higher than the total titles listed, since some players will have titles at no-longer-extant tournaments (e.g. Hingis has 36 total doubles titles, but only 33 show up in the list; she also won Hamburg 1995, 2002, and Leipzig 1997, which are no longer played).

Serena Williams has the distinction of being the only player in recent times to win all four Slams in both singles and doubles; Navratilova of course did it to, and others before her, but that was pre-Rebound Ace.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 268 Who Won What Part 4: 1986Ð1989 Order of events is (approximately) as in 1990. A major change in Tier schedule occurred between 1987 and 1988, with very many $150,000 events upgrading in the interim. In 1987, $150,000 was the equivalent of Tier II; in 1988, it was not. I have listed as Tier II events only those $150,000 events which upgraded in 1988 — but marked them in italics for 1987 (not previously). TThe Tour shifted to a Calendar Year system in 1986. Note that this resulted in many events not being played in 1986.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 270 1. Partial year; see note on 1985Ð1986. 2. Until 1986, the Tour used a “tournament year” stretching from roughly March to March. In 1986, it switched to a calen- dar year form, explaining why many events are omitted (but not shown as unplayed) in 1986 3. The 1984/1985 season was 13 months long, including March 1985 and March 1986. One tournament — Dallas — was therefore played twice in that year, and not at all in the 1983/1984 season. 4. Reduced to a $50,000 tournament in 1985, coupled with a “4-woman special” won by Evert 5. Marco Island in 1986, with reduced prize money and an earlier date 6. The Italian Open was “in exile” 1980-1985, held in (with a $50,000 prize) in 1985, and in Perugia in 1984 and before (with a more normal $150,000 prize). It was not held in 1986 (not unusual given the realignment) 7. In some years (e.g. 1985), there were two Indianapolis events, perhaps on different surfaces. This is the larger 8. Held in Tokyo. Singles only; no doubles. Featured a third and fourth place playoff as well as winner and runner-up 9. Bonaventure in 1984; Deer Creek in 1983, with reduced prize money 10. until 1985 11. Held in Tokyo. Singles only; no doubles. Featured a third and fourth place playoff as well as winner and runner-up 12. Listed by the WTA as a Tier I event but with $50,000 in prize money. Presumably the former is correct 13. Key Biscayne: Later Boca Raton 14. Held in Livingston in the 1983/1984 season 15. Dallas 1984/1985: Won by Mandlikova in March 1984 and by Navratilova in March 1985

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 284 Career Results for Leading Players Career Results — Singles The following tables summarize the performances of certain top singles players, both current and recently retired. The criterion used is that a player must have retired since 1996, and must have, or be projected to have, at least 20 career singles titles. The table then attempts (probably with some inaccuracy) to break out a player’s titles by year, surface, and tier. Tiers have been translated, to the extent possible, to the current Slam-Champ-I-II-III-IV-V system, even though the system has changed dramatically over the years (e.g. events now titled Tier II might have had prizes of $225,000 or $350,000 in the early Nineties; similarly, in the late Eighties the money gap between Tier I and Tier II was only 3:2, compared to the 2:1 ratio of today. The list below does not represent the nomenclature at the time but what appears to me to be the best approximation to the nomenclature of today). Tournaments of Tier II or higher are shown in bold; lesser results in plain text. Slams are in bold coloured type. The year-end championships is also in bold colour as the closest thing to an indoor Slam. Note: Here as elsewhere, events which do not follow WTA admission rules (Olympics prior to 2004, Fed Cup, , Grand Slam Cup) are not listed. Since some (not all) WTA lists include the Olympics, their totals for Capriati, Davenport, Graf, Venus Williams, etc. may be one or more tournaments higher.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 293 Career Results — Doubles For inclusion in this list, players must have at least two Slams, and must have, or project to have, at least 25 doubles titles. Other criteria are similar to those for singles. For brevity, partners are listed only by initial in the following tables — e.g. the first item for Serena Williams is Oklahoma City (III/VW). This means Serena won Oklahoma City 1998, a Tier III, with VW=Venus Williams. The list of partners follows the list of results for each player. Players with whom the player won a Slam shown in bold. Note: Martina Navratilova is excluded because I just don’t trust the early WTA data. The surface data for some of the older players may also be inaccurate.

Maleeva (4), Mandlikova (4) 1983 Navratilova (13) Evert (5) Mandlikova (3), Shriver (3), Temesvari (3) 1. Of Sharapova’s five titles, three were below the Tier II level; the other two were above the Tier I level. Sharapova, through the end of 2004, had never won a Tier I or Tier II title — which is even stranger than all the footnotes below, though she changed that in 2005 2. Of Myskina’s four titles, two were below the Tier II level — a rather unusual outcome for someone near the top of the titles list; most top players win most of their titles at large events — e.g. Clijsters won seven of her nine titles at Tier II or better events; Hénin-Hardenne won all eight of hers titles at Tier II or better events 3. As noted above, most players on this list, particularly in recent years, won the majority of their titles at Tier II or higher events. Smashnova 2002 is an exception; all four of her titles were small events. 4. Like Smashnova 2002, Schnyder had mostly small titles: four of her five were Tier III or lower.

Career Surface Sweeps/Singles The list below shows all players active in 2002 or after to have won titles on all four surfaces, showing the strongest title on each surface and the year in which she achieved the sweep (i.e. earned her first title on her “last” surface) If a title is marked “etc.” (e.g. Seles is marked “Roland Garros 1990, etc.), this means that she won it several times starting with that year.) The “best” tournament is based on tournament tier. Slam titles are abbreviated. Player Year Best Clay Best Grass Best Hard Best Indoors Clijsters 2003 Rome 2003 Eastbourne 2005 U. S.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 325 Career Grand Surface Sweep The Grand Surface Sweep is a higher-order version of the Surface Sweep: It entails a title, Tier I or higher, on all seven major WTA surfaces: Rebound Ace, DecoTurf, Red Clay, Green Clay, Grass, Carpet (including Greenset and Supreme) and Indoor Hardcourts. The WTA established the Tier I event in 1990 (though there were approximate equivalents for about a decade before that). In that period, the events of each type, by surface, were as follows: Rebound Ace: Australian Open DecoTurf: U. S. Open, Miami, Canadian Open, Boca Raton 1991Ð1992, Indian Wells 1997-present, San Diego 2004-present Red Clay: Roland Garros, Rome, Berlin Green Clay: Hilton Head/Charleston Grass: Wimbledon Carpet: WTA Championships 1990-2000, Chicago 1990, Pan Pacific 1993-present, Philadelphia 1993- 1995, Moscow 1997-present Indoor Hard: WTA Championships 2001-present, Zürich 1993-present

From this data, we can compile the (very short) list of Grand Surface Sweepers (this is all-time, since the Australian Open shifted to Rebound Ace; note that the list includes some events from the Slams and “Super Series” before 1990, though those “excess events” include only events which are still active):

1. Steffi Graf Rebound Ace: Australian Open [1988], [1989], 1990, 1994 DecoTurf: U. S. Open [1988], [1989], 1993, 1995, 1996; Miami [1987], [1988], 1994, 1995, 1996; Canadian Open 1990, 1993; Boca Raton 1992 Red Clay: Roland Garros [1987], [1988], 1993, 1995, 1996, 1999; Rome, Berlin [1988], [1989], 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1996 Green Clay: Hilton Head [1986], [1987], [1989], 1993; [Amelia Island 1986, 1987] Grass: Wimbledon [1988], [1989], 1991, 1992, 1993, 1995, 1996 Carpet: WTA Championships [1987], [1989], 1993, 1995, 1996; Pan Pacific [1986], 1994; Philadelphia 1995; Moscow 1997- present Indoor Hard: [Washington 1989]

2. Martina Hingis Rebound Ace: Australian Open 1997, 1998, 1999 DecoTurf: U. S. Open 1997; Miami 1997, 2000; Canadian Open 1999, 2000; Indian Wells 1998 Red Clay: Rome 1998, Berlin 1999 Green Clay: Hilton Head 1997, 1999 Grass: Wimbledon 1997 Carpet: WTA Championships 1998, 2000; Pan Pacific 1997, 1999, 2000, 2002; Moscow 2000 Indoor Hard: Zürich 2000

Lacking Rebound Ace and, apparently, Indoor Hard was Martina Navratilova. (This is largely lack of opportunity.)

Of the top active players, Serena Williams lacks green clay and carpet; Venus Williams lacks Rebound Ace and carpet; Lindsay Davenport lacks green and red clay; Monica Seles lacks grass and indoor hardcourt, Justine Hénin-Hardenne lacks grass and carpet; Kim Clijsters lacks Rebound Ace, green clay, grass, and carpet; Anastasia Myskina lacks Rebound Ace, DecoTurf, green clay, grass, and indoor hardcourt; and Amélie Mauresmo lacks Rebound Ace, green clay, grass, indoor hardcourt, and carpet.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 330 Strongest Career Rankings Showings Based on the above statistics, we can produce a career “ranking of rankings.” In the system below, one point is awarded for a year in which a player ends at #8. Two are awarded for #7, 3 for #6, 4 for #5, 6 for #4, 8 for #3, 12 for #2, and 16 for #1. It is interesting to note that 2005 made almost no difference in the standings. We have the same Top Ten, though Davenport of course moved up the standings a bit. The first change in the standings, in fact, is at #18; Clijsters takes that spot from Capriati. The only other player to move into the Top 20 was Hénin- Hardenne.

Note: for purposes of reckoning, Monica Seles is omitted from the rankings for 1995, but is treated as #2 for 1996, with all players below her demoted one position.

WTA Statistical Abstract ©2005 Robert Waltz Page 337 Comings and Goings: On and Off the Rankings The following lists compare the ranking tables for 2004 and 2005, noting how many players have been added and subtracted. Note that this is not the same as the number of players who have turned pro or retired. Some players may go off the rankings because of injuries, others may reappear because they have recovered from injuries. And some have changed their names, and so will disappear from one list to reappear on the other (I have corrected some of these, e.g. Severine Beltrame became Severine Bremond. But there are bound to be some low-ranked players I’ve missed). In other cases, the WTA simply changes players’s names, presumably because they were misspelled or badly anglicized when first entered in the database (e.g. Vera Douchevina is now spelling her name Dushevina) — but the WTA does not issue lists of these changes. So chances are that at least some players slipped past me. But this gives a general overview of how the numbers of ranked players has changed. This year showed an amazing increase in the number of players. We saw a final total of 1378 ranked players (we had 1256 in 2004, a mere 1113 in 2003, 1252 in 2002, 1214 in 2001, 1242 in 2000, 1079 in 1999) — but it’s harder to earn a ranking now than in 2002; first round losses at the lowest events no longer carry points, though on the other hand, there are more Challengers to give new players openings. So even as prize money has stayed stagnant, even with the Tour having fewer events than four or so years ago, the number of players is up. Note that the old WTA rankings lists clipped players’ names at 22 letters, and I have had to maintain this convention (for the most part) to allow comparison of old and new lists. Clipping, if it occurs, takes place in the first names, not the surnames. In a few instances I’ve spotted it and filled out the name, but this is not guaranteed. The first list, of players ranked only in 2004, shows the players in alphabetical order with their 2004 year- end rankings shown in parenthesis. The second list, of players ranked only in 2005, is similar: An alphabetical list, with 2005 final rankings in parenthesis. The final list, of players ranked in both years, is more complicated, as it allows ranking comparison. The list shows each player’s name, her 2005 final ranking, the net change in her ranking from 2004 to 2005, and the percent change. As an example of what we mean, take the first player on the list. That’s Fatima Abinu, and her entry reads

Fatima Abinu (#1162, -24, -2%) This means that Abinu’s year-end 2005 ranking was #1162. The fact that the number is negative means that she had fallen down the rankings by 24 places (she ended 2004 at #1138). A positive number means the player moved up the rankings; a negative number means she moved down. The third number in the parentheses is her percentage movement — the real indicator of how the player did in the course of the year. Abinu saw her ranking increase by 2%. Had the number been positive, it would mean that she had improved.

If it matters, the biggest percentage improvements in ranking in 2005 were: Kim Clijsters (91%), Michaella Krajicek (86%), Sania Mirza (85%), Ana Ivanovic (84%), Mary Pierce (83%), and Nicole Vaidisova (81%); no one else improved as much as 80%. A total of 82 players improved by at least 50% (i.e. cut their rankings in half). The biggest percentage hits were suffered by Paola Suárez (1350%), (950%), Chanda Rubin (930%), (491%), and Marlene Weingärtner (434%); no one else went up more than 400%. 64 players saw their rankings increase by at least 100% (i.e. their rankings doubled). Most of these declines, of course, were induced by injury; a few (Anastasia Myskina, Vera Zvonareva, Karolina Sprem, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Lisa Raymond) just plain slumped; one or two (notably Fabiola Zuluaga’s) were the result of retirement.

The five highest-ranked players to come on the rankings in 2005 were not very noteworthy (unlike 2004, when Nicole Vaidisova, Li Na, and Kveta Peschke arrived on the rankings): 211. Kristina Barrois 213. Marina Erakovic 260. Soledad Esperon 314. Ayumi Morita 346. Tiffany Eklov

We did see the return of Iroda Tulyaganova, but she is still only #363.
