Sharapova. Venus still I think won't be albe ot defend her title. Vadidisova is mentally weak.

That was last year. I don't think Venus can play her best this year. I fell being defending champ mihgt put to much pressure on her.

Mauresmo also has good chance like you said.

Sharapova has been due for a GS title for a while. There isn't a big "DEFENDING CHAMPION" flashing box sitting on her head this year, so she might do better minus that pressure. I would like to see Lindsay do very well here, but I have no idea what her state of being is. Mauresmo's game suits the surface, so we could see a final run for her. Venus is still UE prone, and I don't think that having a good day, bad day run will allow her to get the title. Should be interesting for the women this year.

6 years. I really HOPE she wins Wimbledon this year, but it is tough to tell with her physical state. Hopefully the draw will be kind to her.

Davenport too. It's almost a given answer. Sharapova doesn't want to be know as a 1 slam wonder.

One thing about sharapova people aren't as intimdated by Sharapova as they used to be. Once you get past the grunts players are saying "I might have a chance". But Sharapova's fighting spirt can get her through tough matches

Davenport on the other hand is more intimdated because she is such a big hitter. She doesn't grunt so most of her intimdation comes from her game

I think Davenport will win. She truly deserves it, and I think she'll just get it this year. No idea why I think this will happen....

Hate to admit it, but I see Sharapova winning her 2nd Wimbledon title. Venus could win it, but I think she'll feel a lot more pressure as the defending champ. She was way under the radar last yr., and that helped her to a degree. I don't see Davenport winning any more majors. She always gets hurt or doesn't close the deal in her big matches of the past 5 yrs.
I think JHH could surprise some people and also be around for the final 4. She has the game to win it all but the draw will be key for her. She doesn't want to face any huge servers that can push her around the court. Also, I'm very curious to see how Vaidisova does. No reason why she can't make it deep into the 2nd wk. With that power serve, and big groundstrokes, she should be a factor.
But overall the draw is wide open. Sharapova and Venus are probably the two biggest favorites, but there are another 4-5 players that if everything goes right could end up with the hardward.

I picked Sharapova to win also. But when Davenport or Venus are playing their best their to much for Sharapova

The Womens game is too hard to predict! Its amazing how many players are so eligable to win a tournament. I think a Sharapova-Venus

Perhaps I am being very optimistic, but I chose Davenport. I refuse to go against her. I think she has a chance but she's not the favourite for once. Hopefully her back will be great and she will be able to play her way into the tournament. Come on Lindsay! Very Happy

I dont think Davenport can do it. I might eat these words but oh well. I think Vaidisova will make it further than her.
