Hewittboy. while you busy downgrading all of the competition, Evert faced on clay courts, take a look at where that leaves you. With her incredibly consistent lifetime record on grass, playing in a great grass court era, compared to the people you laud as so wonderful on grass. How bout to start giving credit where its due and denying credit for folks who can't manage to make to the semis on their best surface more often than Evert can on her worst. Oh leave off all those excuses.
