Happy 2015 tennis fans.
And what a way to start the year, with the first 3 WTA winners of 2015... All familiar names... that was very prominent during 2014.
Those of Sharapova, Halep and Williams (but not Serena) - are the first to be engraved on 2015's opening week Trophies...
In the lead-up tournaments to the #AustralianOpen2015, it was wonderful to see that some of 2014's most prominent players are still looking to be in great form.
Venus Williams - winner in the ASB Classic in Auckland, New Zealand. What a positive start to her year. I personally hope that she remains healthy and fit this year. 46 singles titles.
Simona Halep - winner in the Shenzhen Open, Shenzhen, China. Picking up where she left off in 2014. Keep your eyes on her in 2015. I personally have a feeling that there may be a Grand Slam Trophy with her name on it this year. 9 singles titles.
Maria Sharapova - winner of the first Premier Level WTA tournament for 2015. It's great to see Maria win a trophy in the first week of the year. She has now won at least 1 tournament on tour since 2003, and also only around 700 points behind Serena at #1. 34 singles titles.
Without getting into match details, I believe that we have great things to look forward to this year. With some of the big names playing in the Hopman Cup. Everyone looks great. Serena, Maria, Simona, Venus, Caroline, Ana... I am looking forward to the best year on the WTA ever.
On that note. My bags are packed and I am off to my very first ever Grand Slam as a major women's tennis fan. #AustralianOpen2015, here I come. Look out for some feedback in about 2 weeks.
Let's close of today's blog with some shots of the first winners of 2015...
Greetings
