At this point in time what order would you rank Capriati, Pierce, Mauresmo, and Clijsters. I think nearly everyone agrees Capriati is the weakest of all the 3 slam winners. Pierce, Mauresmo, and Clijsters each have won 2 slams, Clijsters still with the potential to add multiple more of course in the future. However as it stands now what order would you put all 4 in though. This would be mine:
1. Clijsters
2. Mauresmo
3. Capriati
4. Pierce
I had put Pierce over Capriati in some other lists but having thought it over more that probably is a mistake. My discovery of Pierce holding the record for most round of 16 losses in a slam perhaps in history has lowered my opinion of her as a player somewhat. My ranking Mauresmo over Capriati is based in large part on Mauresmo's owning Capriati in head to head even when Capriati was at her best and Mauresmo wasnt necessarily. My ranking of Clijsters tops is based on the fact that she seemed more of a consistent major threat than Mauresmo during the period both were playing and contenders, though it did go back and forth in that regard somewhat too.
