She can if she plays her best, but I don't think she can. She hasn't been consistant enough this year, and there will be more competitors this year at Wimbledon. _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself
Like x.doublea said, she can if those UE numbers are down. She can get away with it more on grass because she can hit more winners. But she has been very UE prone lately, so she should make it deep, but it will be very difficult to win with the rest of the field. _________________ www.freewebs.com/tenniswallpapers by myself and x.doublea

Umm, remember this time last year? She was extremely UE prone! She lost 3rd round to sesil with billions of errors! I was watching match video of venus at last years wimbledon and she was playing AMAZINGLY, which I think she pulls out at wimbledon! She has made it to 4 finals (maybe 5 cant remember). Only wierd loss going to sprem, but we all have our off days and we all know the whole scoring situation during that match. She will have great chances of repeating.
Yes but remeber she was a complete underdog last year. Now she isn't!!!! I don't think she has a good chance right now
Who could beat her? Davenport if she's healthy and playing well, Sharapova if she plays her best, maybe Vaidisova if she plays her best, same goes to Mauresmo...yet we all know that Venus can beat all of these people when she plays well. It will be interesting to see whether the expectations for her lower her playing level. It also is possible that Davenpot could meet up with her in the quarter finals because of their rankings.
About Venus' Wimbledon record:
It is absolutely amazing. With the exception of 2004, she has reached every Wimbledon final in the 21st century, and has won three of them, only losing in the other two to her sister. That is far more impressive even than Serena, who has only won it twice. _________________ -Site Admin

If Venus plays well Davenport is the only person that could stop her. Venus showed last year that if she plays well Sharapova is nothing compared to her, and there is no way Mauresmo could beat Venus at Wimbledon. Actually Davenport and Venus would meet in the RD16, Davenport is ranked seven so would be seeded to win their match, but Lindsay would be ranked to lose in the QF's. I think Davenport would have a better chance in the eraly rounds, Venus is close to impossible to beat in Major finals. I also think Davenport wants this title more than anyone in the draw. She is simply too good of a player to retire with only 3 Slams. She is an amazing grasscourter and unless Venus is playing her absolute best I would have trouble seeing Venus beat her.
Unfortunately, I think this will really be Davenport's last chance. If she doesn't do it this year, she won't be able to get another.... _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself
Predicting Venus' results at Wimbledon is too shakey. I thought she had no chance last year, and then she won it, I thought Serena would trashed her in the Semi's in 2000, and Venus won.
Lindsay has just been plagued by bad luck. Injuries or an on fire player has gotten in the way for another slam for her. Like when she got to the finals of the AO and Wimbledon in 05, she lost to an on fire WS. But what did they do for the rest of the year? Nothing. And this year at the AO, she rolled her ankle in the R16 and lost in 3 sets to JHH. I just think it is too bad that Lindsay had to have this bad luck because, quite frankly, she could have had at least 6 slams by now. _________________ www.freewebs.com/tenniswallpapers by myself and x.doublea

Yes, she's definitely a player who's better than what she's achieved. She should have won more than only one Wimbledon in particular.... _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself
She has achieved so much from the tour but has not won near as many slams as she deserves. Even before she dominated the singles game, she was totally dominant in doubles, something like 6 straight slam finals and loads of titles. In total she has won 6 slams, but has reached so many QF, SF and finals. Her singles career really kicked off when she won the Olympics in 1996. After that she dominated the game along with Hingis, and then the Williams. She has been unfortunate to have the Williams sisters emerge when she was playing her best. I hope she gets another slam.
Davenport actually seems to be quite similar to Agassi in Grand Slam achievement- both don't have the amount they should have. Of course, the reasons are different; Davenport's is being unlucky, and Agassi's is practically a misuse of talent in the first half of his career.... _________________ "Satan is behind Illegal Immigration."- Don Larson, Utah County Republican Tennis Wallpapers, presented by leftys_rock and myself

without the Williams I have no problem seeing her with 6-9 slams. Who's there to challenge her. I Slams she dominated Hingis. There was no one. Davenport didn't have any problem with the Belgians until 2003, up until then she would have dominated the tour. Even after then she would have had more confidence then she did in reality and would have won Slams even after the Belgians became great.
