Featured Article:
One week after the conclusion of this year's last grand slam in the 2008 WTA tour and with very few tournaments remaining, we find the current top five shared by two Russians, two Serbians and one American player.
Both Russian players Elena Dementieva and Dinara Safina who are in the fourth and fifth position respectively and whose career breakthrough year has been the present tour have shown incredible determination beating well-known opponents on all surfaces. Dementieva, who is in her mid twenties reached this year a career high raking at the number four position and holds a singles record of 469-232 and she is also a gold medallist holder. On the other hand, there is Dinara Safina who is only twenty-two years and already has eight single WTA titles and four ITF wins to her name. Safina's best performances have been at this year's French Open final where she played Ana Ivanovic and at the recent US Open semi final.
Then we move to the top three standing where there are the best two female Serbian players Ivanovic, who has already been in the number one position and her partner, Jankovic who has also had a spectacular year as her injuries stop troubling her. She has been able to improve her game while surpassing some of the best players in the tour. Currently, there is a point difference of approximately 400 (plus) between the number two and the number three and even a shorter gap between Jankovic and the number one leading lady, Serena Williams, who is up by not more than 125 points.
Once the former number one the Belgian Justin Henin announced her sudden retirement, a few months ago, the WTA rankings began to move up and down from that point forward. Players such; Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic and now Serena Williams have occupied this position but for the shortest periods compare to the many weeks Justin retained her leadership. There is no doubt, this could be a healthy way to allow the new growing talent to pursuit the top positions but we have not yet seemed which of these ladies could become the best player to remember.
Currently, in the top five ranking there are still many uncertainties regarding injuries, program issues with some of the tournaments remaining, and even with the players not being constant at their play. Regardless of what happens next in the tour we would really enjoy seeing a new era where one of the female tennis players reacts and steps up as the new queen. Could this really happen? Perhaps not yet, as if we look back we see four different ladies winning this year' Slams; Sharapova took the Australian Open, Ivanovic crowned herself in Paris, then Venus Williams retained her title at Wimbledon and Serena returned to the podium in New York City.
The 2008 WTA tour will end within a couple of months therefore it is likely the rankings will not change much in the coming weeks, but one thing is certain and that is we hope for one of them to establish herself as other women have done it in the past...as we, the tennis fans, will like to see a new tennis legend rise to the top.

4 Ways To Change Your Tennis Game To Play On Clay
As the Pro Tour moves from the American hard courts onto European clay, the players will need to make small adjustments to their game because of the different surface.
For some, these changes will be fairly natural, for others the change will be fairly un-natural, but changes will have to be made.
The same applies to you!!
Here are a few simple changes you may need to think about and follow when you make the transition to clay courts.
FROM THE BASELINE
This first change concerns your ground strokes and is this - hit them higher over the net with a bit more topspin.
It sounds like a no-brainer but you would be surprised how many people don't do it and for many people adding more topspin "at will" is something they need to work on.
If you can do this however, you will find that this will not only help with your consistency, but will also help to push the balls deeper into your opponents court as well as getting the balls up at heights that they may find difficult to handle.
The second change is to hit behind your opponent more often.
Hitting behind your opponent means hitting the ball back to the same part of the court that your opponent has just hit from.
It means not always going into the open court (unless you can obviously hit a winner of course) and has 3 big advantages.
1. With your opponent probably recovering towards the centre of the court the "behind" ball means they have to quickly change direction to go back again.
Doing this on clay is very difficult because of the slippery nature of the surface and so will end up with them struggling to maintain balance and footing and therefore struggling to control the ball.
2. You will also find that you make less errors as this often means a cross-court shot (more space to aim into and lower part of the net) and you are not "over hitting" in an attempt to put the ball away into the open space.
3. You will pick up a lot of free points if you can do this well as your opponent is sometimes forced into trying to end the point quicker than they would normally want to or they will be forced into a very defensive shot just to stay in the point while they slide around.
WHEN SERVING
Just like Rafa, focus on getting a high percentage of first serves into play.
Because the clay surface negates the power of even the fastest of serves, your second serve may well be vulnerable to attack.
So, getting more first serves into play will mean your opponent gets less "looks" at your second serves and therefore less chances to attack it.
If you don't do so already, you need to develop a good spin serve that you can be aggressive on as your first serve.
A slice is good but a good kick serve will be better as it will bounce up higher and be harder for opponents to attack.
AT THE NET
Remember I said earlier about the use of the hitting behind your opponent when playing from the baseline??
Well, I also said when you get the chance you should attack - and that can mean getting to the net to finish off the point.
Just be aware that volleying on clay is different to volleying on a hard court or grass court.
Because the ball doesn't "go through" like it does on other surfaces, you need to make a couple of small adjustments.
1. Use more angles and short/drop volleys
The lack of depth on your volleys will work in your favor as getting up speed and possibly changing direction will be hard for your opponent as they attempt to get to your shots.
2. Bodyweight into ball
If you do decide to play a penetrating volley, then getting your bodyweight behind the ball and moving it forwards into the ball will help it gain momentum off the court surface and away from your opponent.
MOVEMENT
I have found that the number one thing about playing well on a clay court has nothing directly to do with shots.
It is in fact about your movement, more specifically - SLIDING.
Sliding into the ball on a clay court is vital and is the one thing that the players who don't grow up on the surface find the hardest to add into their game.
In fact most people think that you have to learn to hit the ball and then slide.
No!!
You have to learn how to slide into your shots and then begin your recovery for the next ball - and that requires timing.
So how do you learn to do this?
Well, one of the best ways I have seen is to just get out there and slide around.
Getting a partner to throw a tennis ball onto the court in different directions while you run to and slide around to get the balls before getting the ball back to them is one of the best ways to work out how to move and recover on a clay court.
Just progress/transfer this game to when you have a racket and are hitting balls and you are well on the way to feeling comfortable and moving better on "the dust".
SUMMARY
So there you have it, a few simple things you can do to make your game more effective on clay.
Try to implement them slowly and you will be more successful over the season.
Here's to the best clay court tennis you've ever played!!!

Should I buy the Head Youtek Speed 16 X 19 tennis racket?
I am finally buying a new racket and I heard this was a great one for intermediate to advanced players. I hope to get comments from people who own or have demoed this racket. I was also thinking of the Prince Tour Diablo because I am willing to sacrifice power for comfort and control.
I had the chance to play with the 16x19 a while back and in my opinion, it was a great stick. I liked the thin beam and heavy weight of the racquet but after hitting for a couple of days, I realized the racquet didn't suit my style of play. The 16x19 does offer a nice, open string pattern, making it a great stick for nice rallies and provides great control when hitting backhand slice shots, due to the thin beam. Overall, it is a fun racquet! Between the two, I would say the Prince Tour Diablo is a much more demanding racquet in that it has a smaller headsize, but both racquets have been known to play well and suit many different styles of play.
