Final well fought, but eventually won by Davenport
Lindsay Davenport won her third Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open last week. She did not drop a single set in her title run (as with her two other Grand Slam victories), which included a straight set demolition of Martina Hingis in the final. It may have looked easy for Davenport, but Hingis put up a brave fight at the very end, fighting back from 5-1 down to 5-5 in the second set before relinquishing the crown she has won for three straight years.

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.

Tis the season for Davenport to be jolly

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.
