Final Women's Rankings For 2009.

The 2009 season is over for the WTA.  So I just wanted to put my year end rankings and the Official World Rankings up just for comparison. 

My rankings go from year to year.  Like in 2010 everyone will begin with 0 points.  Which is totally opposite for the Official rankings where it is a cumulative progression throughout the years and points are dropped off after one year to the day.  So basically if you accumulate a bunch of points by winning Wimbledon in 2009, come next year at Wimbledon them points will fall off.... and so on throughout the year.  So when you hear the term "points to defend" or "defending (insert number here) points."   So you better duplicate or do better than what you did the year before in order to keep all them points....yes, its confusing.   Thus another reason why mine is better.

My Top 15
1. Serena Williams (USA) 130

2. Dinara Safina (RUS) 128
3. Caroline Wozniacki (DEN) 122
4. Elena Dementieva (RUS) 113
5. Victoria Azarenka (BLR) 105
6. Svetlana Kuznetsova (RUS) 103
7. Jelena Jankovic (SRB) 97
8. Venus Williams (USA) 91
9. Agnieszka Radwanska (POL) 88
10. Flavia Pennetta (ITA) 86
11. Vera Zvonareva (RUS) 81
12. Marion Bartoli (FRA) 80
13. Samantha Stosur (AUS) 70
14, Na Li (CHN) 69
15. Daniela Hantuchova (SVK) 67

Official WTA World Rankings
1. Serena Williams (USA)
2. Dinara Safina (RUS)
3. Svetlana Kuznetsova (RUS)
4. Caroline Wozniacki (DEN)
5. Elena Dementieva (RUS)
6. Venus Williams (USA)
7. Victoria Azarenka (BLR)
8. Jelena Jankovic (SRB)
9. Vera Zvonareva (RUS)
10. Agnieszka Radwanska (POL)
11. Marion Bartoli (FRA)
12. Flavia Pennetta (ITA)
13. Samantha Stosur (AUS)
14. Maria Sharapova (RUS)
15. Na Li (CHN)

A few slight differences, but both are fairly similar.  I do not have Sharapova in my top 15.  The layoff from the injury definetly hurt her more in my rankings than in the WTA's.  Justine Henin and Kim Clijsters will definetly be making the top 15 next year.  Also a healthy Sharapova should make a run to the top 5.
