A nice 4 in the top 100 (with two 2004-born players and Eva, born 2005)
But a real lack of depth behind that.

We do have a nice batch of 2005-ers just outside the top 500 though (with four in the 500-600 slot)

(All players are 2003-born, unless marked otherwise)

 I always forget that junior rankings incl 80% singles and 20% doubles points towards a single combined ranking. Do you think this is a good thing? I always thought it could be a good way of getting players playing doubles in the main tours if the authorities wanted to do that (ATP, WTA)   

I agree. I think it's great for juniors (you want them to play dubs, it's a good learning thing, makes it more team-like, the more tennis the better etc. etc., and it would make no sense to have two different rankings for them)

But I wouldn't want it for adults - I don't care about their doubles prowess - and I don't see why we would want them to encourage them to play doubles per se. If they want to play both (and many do), then fine. And it would scupper the doubles rankings too - now they'd have to play singles too (if you're emulating the juniors system), which would be really unfair on the real dubs players.
