Trade places with the USA hard court circuit. You can play in Miami in January. Then go to IW. THEN go to AUS/NZ. Play the Aussie in late Feb/March. Then return to Europe.
Will never happen.

Sania's speech was beautiful and heartbreaking. I was truly impressed with the lovely speeches from all four mixed finals players.

Ashkor will tell us, but she will be a certain HOF in India. That was a fine career.

Of course but HOF is a uniquely American idea..
She has already been awarded the Padma Bhushan, the third highest civilian award several years ago, and the highest award for sports khel ratna, which roughly translates to jewel of sports.. she .will probably get the next level soon..Padma Vibhushan ...

This was a subtext to the Djokovic run to the Final.

I've been saying for years now that the men in their 20's are unable to think their way through five sets (excluding Carlitos). I just hope once the men who could are retired they don't make the Slams best of three.

The men's final has traditionally been the highlighted match of the Majors, and is thus played last.
But the women's final is sometimes the better, or more enjoyable/entertaining match.

As such, I propose that the Majors alternate which match is played as the last match - the 'grande finale' - of the tournament.
For example, in the first year of implementation, the Aussie Open and Wimbledon could have the women play the last match, and Roland Garros and the U.S. Open can have the men play last. Then the following year, they would switch it around so that it evens out.
