Hi, could you please include Smith. Margaret Smith. That's her maiden name. I ended up missing her. Which is embarrassing... she's from my home town.

Level 55
May 27, 2022
She's far better known as Margaret Court now though

Level 62

I write 'Sanchez' and 'Arantxa Sanchez' but it doesn't work... "Vicario" is only her second surname...

Sanchez will work now.

You have got Henin as winner of the 2004 US Open and Kuznetsova as the 2003 winner - that's the wrong way round.

That. Good three years later, and that mistake has still not been corrected.

In Chinese names the Surname comes first, so Li is accepted.

How come Serena scores higher than Venus when you only have to type Williams and you get them both?
+7
Level 82
Sep 21, 2018
Because you can still enter Serena Williams and so you get only her.

Whenever a quiz gets updated, its statistics reset. For example, if you took a quiz and got 100% and it gets updated, it will go back down to 0%. The number of people who have taken the quiz before it got updated will stay the same.

and 100% could be 99.6% etc.

Well I typed in Williams, Jones, and King and got a decent fraction of all the answers.

It still only counts as 4 answers no matter how many times their names appear.

why "Romania Virginia Ruzici" her name is Virginia Ruzici, i think you should change that

I copied and pasted text from Wikipedia and I think a flag was in there and was converted to Romania. Fixed!

I'm surprised that Serena Williams never won all 4 in the same year.

Level 91

It is EXCEEDINGLY difficult to win a Grand Slam. Especially with the French being played on an entirely different surface. Look back through the list and you'll see just how rare it is. Two times in 50 years.

She was once two matches away.

After a long time not watching tennis, I misremembered Sharapova with Kournikova?!

Level 82
Sep 21, 2018
Kournikova never won ANY WTA tournament, not only grand slams

She actually won 16 titles, including 2 slams and two Tour Finals and also reached the #1 ranking… in doubles.

I loved watching Hingis play. Her technique, precision and mental acuity. I miss that style of play sometimes.

I suspect "Raducanu" is going to end up filling a lot of these boxes.

One of only 3 players I could think of and I couldn't understand why it wouldn't accept Everett, Lloyd, or Everett Lloyd.

This sounds nearly as bad my partner, who is Czech and insists on referring to most famous females with the appropriate feminine suffix (even if they aren’t Czech), since that’s how they were referred to on TV back home. I saw Chris Evert on TV recently and he asked who it was. When I said ‘Chris Evert’ he looked blank faced for a second, then he got excited as the penny dropped and said “Ah! Chris Evertová-Lloydová!!”

Another favourite is Michelle Obamová. Part of the joys of dating outside of your own nationality, no matter how serious they may otherwise be (and he’s a senior paediatrician), you always get a good laugh when they do the ‘comedy foreigner’ bit by accident!

Apparently there is an eminent chemical engineer called Martha Grover. I don't suppose you fancy asking him what her name ought to be..?

Are you sure about Kerry Melville Reid (Australian 1977)? It seems to have been the doubles final that was washed out, not the singles - and she wasn't even in the singles final. Or am I missing something?
