A Game with Losers and Winners When There Sometimes Shouldn't Be
The 2001 Roland Garros final featured a seasoned campaigner in Jennifer Capriati, who has been a professional tennis player for 12 years, versus Kim Clijsters, a relative rookie on the verge of becoming the next major champion. Many expected the experience of Capriati to dominate in the final, but many were surprised, and thrilled, with the way the final eventually played out. The end result may have been expected, but the process certainly was not.

Martina Hingis may hold the #1 ranking but for how much longer is the question. There are more than a handful of competitors waiting to take down the Swiss Miss from the pole position and capture the ranking for themselves. Rivals such as Venus Williams, Lindsay Davenport, Jennifer Capriati, Monica Seles, Amelie Mauresmo and Serena Williams pose the nearest immediate threat to unseating Hingis in the future - can one succeed?

Losing her way. Will she lose her will too?
Martina Hingis's loss this week at Filderstadt, the first tournament she won as a professional at the age of 16, will push her out of the Top 10 rankings for the first time in over six years. With her current slump in form, Martina has announced an indefinite break from the tour in order to recover from her injuries, retool her game, and regain her confidence. Will she return her to top form ever again?

Venus Williams's domination of women's tennis may have ended at the hands of Lindsay Davenport, but it looks like another on-court rival of theirs has the WTA Tour at her feet at the moment. Martina Hingis won her third straight indoor tournament at Moscow, demolishing hometown favourite Anna Kournikova in the final, and in the process extended her winning streak to 12 matches.

Les Femmes Francais
As of this week, there is a Frenchwoman in the Top 5. There are two others in the Top 10. And two more in the Top 15. French tennis is certainly getting better and better with each passing year and may in fact be the team to beat in next year's Fed Cup competition. The depth was apparent two weeks ago in Linz when the semi finals featured four French women - the first time women of the same country had made up the semi finals of a tournament. #5 Mary Pierce, #7 Nathalie Tauziat, #9 Julie Halard-Decugis, #11 Amelie Mauresmo and #15 Sandrine Testud have all led the way for French tennis and look to continue that trend into the new millenium.

Back to reality after the Olympics
For two weeks we had non-stop, high energy, crowd pleasing sport on television. Much to the disagreement of some purists, tennis was one of those sports we followed during the Olympic games. While the event is opened to professionals, many of the top players declined to participate, but that did not stop #3 Venus Williams or #5 Monica Seles from winning medals for the US team. Now that the Olympics are over, the players will prepare for the indoor season and attempt to gain the last places in the season-ending Chase Championships. It is non-stop tennis action throughout all parts of the globe.

Tis the season for Davenport to be jolly
She was at a point where she considered calling it quits for the rest of the year. But Lindsay Davenport listened to her coach and not to herself, and ended up winning back-to-back titles to finish the year. Among her many titles this season, she included her first season ending Chase Championships title to her impressive 1999 resume, defeating world #1 Martina Hingis in the title match.

Finally, justice is served
Since the 1999 indoor season, Lindsay Davenport has played like the #1 player in the world. But she wasn't #1. She won the Australian Open earlier this year to have two Grand Slams on her 52-week ranking. But she still wasn't #1. Finally, she gets her just fruits as she rises to the top ranking this week, despite losing (ironically) to the person she replaced at the top - Martina Hingis.
