Guys,u r forgetting Steffi Graf.\n\nShe won 22 Grand Slam titles including seven singles titles at Wimbledon. In 1988 she completed a rare Grand Slam, winning the U.S., Australian and French Opens and Wimbledon in one year.

I've never heard of the River Oaks International. I heard Sampras would be joining the World Team Tennis league, which may be televised on the Tennis Channel (I dunno, cause I only get basic cable). Pretty much if you wanna watch anything besides a grand slam, then the Tennis Channel is the only channel that might cover it.

The answer that I have read from so many different newspaper articles and such is scheduling. If women play 3 of 5, then their matches will take up more time and court space. Hence, many tournaments prefer to limit the matches to 2 of 3. When you think about it, all other matches (doubles and mixed) are 2 of 3. The only events that are 3 of 5 are mens matches. On a different note, the WTA championships from 84 to 98 did use a 3 of 5 format for the final. You can look that up. I think only one final ever went to 5 sets. I cannot remember the details, but you can find it anywhere on the net.

I don't think Sharapova will make it to the top for another year or so.  The competition is pretty tough right now.  I mean, you have Davenport, Clijsters, and Mauresmo, all of which have a lot experience under their belt.  I think Davenport will probably remain at the top.  Although Sharapova is very good, I think she has room to get better as she gets older.  But as of now she still has some learning to do about herself and her opponents.  Also she still has her pectoral injury that she has yet to get over.  We all will just have to wait for her to get to the top once again.
