The boring end to the US Open that it looked though unfortunately. A lack of form from the top players didn't help. We didn't really get any marquee match ups because no-one was really playing well.

It's interesting how as she's got older the US Open seems to have become Serena's best grand slam.

The worst grand slam trophy ceremony coming up.

18 is freaking amazing. Only two more active players have won more than 2.
|
|
By:
Will Serena catch Graf?
|
|
By:
Those numbers are kind of linked though caramba. In that Serena winning 18 has stopped other players winning.
And everyone else from her era has retired. |

By:
made fix thread with caramba's entry from tonight as the example

cool stats

Prize money stats are irrelevant tbh. I think it's probably the most irrelevant stat.
Prize money has and is going up so fast, that basically the biggest earners will always be the current players. Serena's $60m or whatever will probably be passed within 10 years. |
|
By:
Vika has earned the 5th biggest prize money ever in the WTA. And will go up to #4 ultra soon.
|
|
By:
Only 3 players have won more than 2 grand slams in ATP too caramba.
|
|
By:
Maria #2 I'm guessing, who #3
|
|
By:
Agree n88. It is definitely the time to become a sportperson ...The Prize money is Hideous and is rising at such a rapid rate !

all this money and ITF/Challenger's getting none

don't want it going down like a lead balloon
|
|
By:
Serena gets $4m for winning this US Open alone. That number will be $5m within a few years.
|
|
By:
Though I guess prize money is likely to curtail for a while in a few years.
|
|
By:
she also got an 18 carat tiffany bracelet
