WTA is such a mess nowadays, I wonder if they’ll ever regain the popularity they had in 00s. 

Depends on what part of the 2000s. The early 2000s were decent, with the Williams sisters, Capriati, Seles, Pierce, Davenport, Hingis, Henin, and Clijsters. The late 2000s was just a glorified high school tennis tour.

 

But yeah, the weakness of the WTA has taken a whole new level the past few years, especially after Osaka’s level of play declined and Barty retired. We just had a 31-year-old nobody in Magda Linette make a semifinal of a slam last month, lol.

I still don't understand what's your point? Of course she's not gonna win every single tournament of the year? :skull: but pretending she's not currently by the best player on the tour is just plain delusional, and I'm not even a stan

Random players having unexpected deep runs in tournaments have always been a part of the WTA tho, in any era

this "glorified high school of tennis" argument gets always tossed around when, exactly like you're saying, this has always happened. it's more about the matter of single maiden GS winners (since like Stephens? or even Mug) that are TOTAL flop afterwards.

Sharapova, Ivanovic, Jankovic, Dementieva were all bigger stars than 80% of this lot. I mean how are you gonna even market Krejcikova and Pegula? Nobody is gonna care about them.

lol, you’re right about that on Krejcikova and Pegula. The only player that is marketable right now is Coco Gauff, and to be honest with you, my interest in watching women’s tennis goes down when Coco isn’t playing in a tournament or after she loses a match.
