Well, kids. It's over. Maria Sharapova, come the end of the Roland Garros French Open currently in progress, will no longer be number one.
What a run she had. From the day Justine Henin requested her name be removed from the WTA listings after her shocking retirement to the several weeks later when Sharapova lost to Safina in the Round of 16 in France---ironically, Henin's territory (the retired number one had won the last three years in a row).
Looks like the Serbs are coming in for their own reign at number one. Will it be longer than the Russian turned Californian's? I wouldn't count Sharapova out. Apparently, she read my last blog and prefers to earn her rank.
