5 to go ? Her Goatness can do it in 2 years, top.

The Empress is in her 6th Era of Domination ( I think? )

but 2 years is a lot to ask when some of them

have had trouble lasting 2 weeks.

#5 accomplished!
Do we have to wait 2 years now?

Well Kiu, It is an even year and that has been the pattern.

Unless she has had a breakthrough or something new happens



Are You an Avid Maria fan Kiu?

Just an Avid Tennis Fan in general, more WTA than ATP, as you probably noticed.

Maria does have the high hand these days but you know how that goes...Last time she won a slam, she couldn't get nothing afterwards and it went on for a while. Serena would have none of it, poor Masha was #1 until the following Wimby which she lost early to Sabine, she couldn't win nothing afterwards(thanks to Serena)... it took her 9 months to win the next event.

Although Masha has very few points to defend this grass season, I have a feeling Serena will clean up, these early losses don't easily leave her mind.

Although I am very happy for Maria winning her 5th 2000 pointer, Now that I think back, I was happier for Eugenie winning her first 280 pointer!

I can be critical of all, even the ones I like, that's how it goes. I like to think I am a tennis fan before anything else.

Oh, BTW! I am one of the 23 who voted NO!

I honestly think Maria will retire at the next Olympics....amongst other players.
To me her best opportunity would be another GS title at Roland Garos.

She might do this, but she definitely has to do something about her second serve. It’s awful.

Yeah, she's been plagued with problems on the serve. It's got a little better though but still too many double faults.

I can't see Maria getting to 10 while she still has a "Serena problem"... and I can't see her cracking that nut anytime soon.

She won her first in 2004.

She won her fifth in 2014.

She'll win her tenth in 2024? :nono

If I had to guess, I would think she gets three more majors, with one more coming in Paris. I do believe she may sneak in another US Open too.

^ Grass is to fast for Maria to be a contender at Wimbledon now..Slower surfaces like Roland Garos and say the AO give her more time to set up her shots.

Maria only wins things if Serena isn't around to spank her bottom. She knows who's Boss when she faces Serena.

But even if Serena vanished into the ether, there's no way Maris is winning Wimbo this year. She had her fluke, live off it a little longer if you like, but she's not getting it this year... :nono

Maria's negative votes are piling up, now at 26
Who says Serena is the only polarizing player, Maria is right behind her.

Its just a poll and I didnt bother voting. Nothing to polarize.
Just saw that you voted "no"! what a way to brag about your player while keeping an escape route ;)
You cant be caught :D
