2011's #6 Player: Samantha Stosur
Samantha Stosur almost won her first Grand Slam title in 2010 at the French Open, where she was clearly the favorite going into the finals, but she kinda choked and let Francesca Schiavone play her game. However, in 2011, she did not show any of that jitters in her US Open final against the great Serena Williams, and through solid play, won her first Grand Slam title!
When Sam is on, she's very difficult to play so I won't be surprised if she gets another Slam this year. Hopefully she does it on home soil - Australia!
