I have changed the height and weight according to those listed at the WTAs website. They seem more appropriate. Kaleks 15:15, 6 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Does anyone else thin k it's unnecessary to include her mugshot? Agrippina Minor

I agree that it's unnecessary. Tennis expert 05:11, 24 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
I'm removing it, if anyone feels strongly about it put it back and we can talk further about it. Agrippina Minor

Where is she now and whats new with her life?>

yeah, bigger question: is she in shape to play tennis? 35 years old. if she comes back now, she might have three or four good years left, and then she could re-retire at 40!! 206.192.35.125 (talk) 19:35, 9 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Rewrite edit

I have started trying to rewrite this article. I'm no expert in tennis players, but I do know this article needs a rewrite. If anyone from WikiProject Tennis could help out that would be great! --Solumeiras talk 11:37, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Why do you thing the article is better without a photo of her in the infobox? --AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:39, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • The photo appeared out-of-focus and slightly poor quality. Not that it violates WP:NFCC, just that if there's no good-quality one, then the infobox should be left blank. --Solumeiras talk 18:21, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, strongly disagree. "The perfect is the enemy of the good." wikiquote:Voltaire It is much better to have a mediocre photo than no photo. That's really the basis of the whole Wikipedia, which, you may remember, starts each article from a tiny stub edited by amateurs. If you can improve it, do so, but if you can't, leave it alone. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 18:35, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • OK, I get your point. I'm not trying to make an article perfect, but then again, no-one wants an out-of-shot, blurry picture, do they?? Anyway, I'll revert it. --Solumeiras talk 19:11, 17 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Request for wider input on discussion at WikiProject Tennis edit

There is a long, ongoing discussion at WP:Tennis about the tournament tables found in tennis articles on English-language Wikipedia (e.g., this type of table). The discussion is about whether the "official sponsored name" of a tournament - such as Pacific Life Open - or another tournament name without the sponsor - such as Indian Wells Masters - must be used in those articles. Please join the discussion here. Thanks. Tennis expert (talk) 09:24, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

You've Gotta Be Kidding! edit

This "article" completely ignores her much-publicized, tumultuous drug use! Why isn't this in the article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.159.111.98 (talk) 10:46, 29 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Seconded. Aldo L (talk) 14:37, 12 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Probably left out of the article because she's not the only one to be using drugs. A lot of other pro tennis players on the tour have used drugs. She popped some pills; smoked some weed. What is the point? She takes a dump after dinner, are you going to put that in the article? She got busted by the cops; Was she threatened with hard time? Dont try to make a story, where there is none. 206.192.35.125 (talk) 19:33, 9 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Agreed with OP it is further exposition on why she "took a break" just because "other people were doing it" doesn't discount it as a part of the story.

a pic of JC's face? edit

is that too much to ask ?CorvetteZ51 (talk) 11:42, 10 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

personal life section edit

Right now we have where she was born, her parents names, and then her rap sheet. Hopefully this could be improved to provide some balance.

I also removed the recent stalking allegation. Maybe wait to see if any charges, ect or brought or how she responds. --Malerooster (talk) 00:08, 21 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
