Davenport Bio..
Lindsay A. Davenport was born on June 8, 1976
to Wink and Ann Davenport in Palos Verdes, California,
USA. Davenport started playing tennis when she
was 5 years old and was extremely successful
in her tennis career in the middle of 1990's.
In the late 90's she won three Grand Slam tournaments,
which included the 1998 U.S. Open, 1999 Wimbledon
and the 2000 Australian Open. She also spent
much time ranked number 1 in the world.
Due
to a back injury Davenport had to leave the
world of tennis for a while. After her return
from injury she found her climb up the womens
tennis ranking much more challenging
because of the new tennis stars, such as Elena
Dementieva and Maria
Sharapova. The year 2005 was very successful
for Lindsay as she was ranked No.1., which was
the fourth time in her career.
In
2003 Lindsay Davenport was married to Jon Leach,
who was a football
player and now is an investment banker.
