Lindsay Davenport still being called an active tour player at 32 what will surprise me even more is if we're still calling Lindsay active tour player in 2009.

I still believe she was a doper. and very good at it. until probably now!

Even more so when you take into account it came just before her favorite Roland Garros. I also think it was Justine Henin’s retirement.
