    That is terrible new for tennis fans. Will we ever see another world no.1 that plays one-handed on both backhand and forehand?

    I would hate to see the women’s game dominated by six foot plus two-handed players with big serves.

    I am still stunned. It takes some courage though to say “au revoir” in this manner. As to many women’s tennis fans, this news really shocked and saddened me.
