Title: Who will win the AO?

Who do you think will win the AO.

Make TWO choices and explain them :)

I think it's going to be a Henin/Serena versus Venus final, so I really had to choose between Henin and Serena to go along with Venus for my picks here. I went with Henin due to the last three GS results between the two going here way and she has proven over the last year she is currently the better player. However I won't rule Serena out as you neve know with her, and if Henin has an off day she could beat her.....

Then once it gets to the final Venus will have a good chance because Serena or Henin will have had to battle very hard to get there.....
:ok:

My dark horse is Maria Sharapova and I will be supporting her with my usual blind faith.... but I think Henin will take care of her if someone else doesn't first.

Venus finally gets a decent Aussie Draw :bow: roflmao

It's all about one match at a time with Vee though, and i'll be thinking the same :)

Still go Venus! :yahoo:

I think it should be a Justine Venus final. But I not sure if Venus will hold it together. You never know. If Venus fails, Ana Ivanovic should be there in the finals.

I hope Serena doesn't lose to JH, as this would complete the slam for JH to defeat Serena in a row.

Well i want Linds to get another title, but once she gets knocked out, Venus is going in my sig, and the last time she was in my sig was wimbledon.........

I seem to remember you switching your sig to Venus during the US Open and she promptly lost to Henin! In fact, if I remember correctly you put the curse on nearly everyone you put in your sig in that tournament :D :D !!! I remember QJ getting a bit upset when you put Henin in your sig for the final!!!! :lmaao:

Henin or Venus-probably Henin to win.
Venus has a a very good draw this time, quite frankly she deserves a slap if she doesn't get to the final-this kind of fast-ish hard court should suite her game, it's surprising she hasn't been to the finals more than once.
Top half with Henin and Serena is quite tough-jankovic and Sharapova to name but two, but i still see Henin and Serena as favs for that side. It's tough to decide between Henin and Serena if they get to the semis- but i'll just give it to Henin.

dani for sure :P

looks like we're all thinking along the same lines here. :D Everyone's going to be trying to catch Justine; and if the Williams girls have their game on-they will be difficult to beat.
