And they have played much less tennis than your average tennis player, so that money really speaks to all of the grand slams that they've won. Very impressive.

Lindsay Davenport just surpassed Steffi Graff in the $20,000,000 arena and now holds the record for most earnings for a female tennis player. (That is of course only tennis earnings).

Quibble...those are not "Grand Slams won". Those are "majors won".

The Williams sisters are amazing. Venus is approaching her 15th season and still dominant.

Geoff thanks for the correction. 15 years...seems so long ago. Glad to see they are back in the top ten. When they go out, I'd like to see them go out on top, like Henin. I don't care what anyone says, they are the spark which ignites the women's tour.
