In my opinion, Jana got in because of her doubles play, while Sabatini got in because of her looks. Do you agree?. And, is letting them in fair to the greats like Steffi and Martina who are true hall of famers?.

The Hall is not just for single's play (1 GS title), so Novotna is deserving based on her double's play (12 GS titles, 76 total). Sabatini has only one GS single's title, but the number of semi-final appearances (15) weighs heavily.....agree or disagree, the sport takes this into account when measuring the performance of players.

Novotna deserves to be in for her three Wimbledon finals appearances (1 win) and her many grand slam doubles titles. Sabatini desreves to be in for the fact that she is the only Argentinian female player to win a grand slam title (she also won the 1988 Wimbledon doubles with Graf), and only the second South American of all time to do so (the other being Maria Bueno of Brazil). It is, after all, the INTERNATIONAL Tennis Hall of Fame.
