At this point who would you list as the top favorites for RG for the women. These would be mine:

1. Henin- even after yesterday I think she clearly has to be he favorite but maybe a shakier one now. I do think she was sick in Madrid though which contributed to her poor performance.

2. Jankovic- is good on clay and is playing pretty well now.

3. Serena- it seems strange to put her this high on clay but I am not sure who else to go with.

4. Clijsters- if she makes the French on time to even play.

5. Stosur- well she has had some good tournaments on clay lately. Hard to find names.

move Dementieva, Ivanovic or Wozniacki into the top 5 if Kim doesnt play I guess.

All I will say is I pretty much gaurantee Venus, Safina, Sharapova, have NO chance regardless of the open field. It will be a miracle if one of them even makes the quarters. We could even see another surprise like Martinez Sanchez in Rome.

Serena struggles with Dushevina and she's no 3?! Stosur should be higher than Serena for sure. top 2 are pretty clear for sure.

1. Jankovic- I think she is ready for he first slam

2. Henin- Just because she was there before and done that

3.Stosur- She has the potential to win RG thinking of her clay game

Any other woman....who can capitalize with the weak clay field!

The top favs are Henin, Jankovic, Serena and Stosur.

We'll see, I want to say JJ can do it but she needs to get over Henin, kind of like how Henin needs to conquer Venus. We'll see though..
 
1. Henin
2. Serena
3. Jankovic
4. Ivanovic- I'm falling for it
5. Stosur
6. Clijsters
7. Dementieva- Starting to look like a lost cause
8. Wozniacki
460. Safina

what about kuznetsova, defending champion

Unlikely. Even though she bombed out of Madrid last year, she still had some decent results on clay already (Stuttgart win, I believe). She's in a bad slump right now, losing to the likes of Na Li on clay. I also don't see her beating Henin should they meet.
