| Welcome to the thread Ali.  Glad that you decided to join the fun here and love the thread title. I hope that you come back here regularly.
Yesterday the latest rankings were released and Masha is now officially the #1 player in the world again due to Justine Henin`s shocking retirement last week. Right behind her is Ana and Jelena at #2 and #3 respectively. Like i`ve said before, it`s great to finally see at least three of our favorite hotties at the top of the rankings.  It`ll be interesting to see how things will play out with Masha, Ana and Jelena in the top 3. Of course they have to watch out for Svetlana Kuznetsova and Serena Williams, who are right behind them at #4 and #5 respectively. Also in the rankings, Anna has moved up to #6, while Dani is still at #10.
Meanwhile in Strasbourg, Flavia defeated hometown favorite Nathalie Dechy 4-6, 6-2, 6-3. Good win there for Flavia. Nice to see her comeback strong after losing the first set. Unfortunately it wasn`t all good news as Ashley was routed 1-6, 2-6 in her first match since Miami.  Obviously there`s a lot of work for Pebbles to do to get back to where she was before the surgery. Hopefully she can get a few matches under her belt.
So that`s the first update from Strasbourg.
Anyway here are some pics of Masha training in Roland Garros.
It`s great to see Masha back hard at work already.  I can`t stop marveling at how great her throwing form is with the football. |
