Isn't women's tennis more competitive and of a higher quality now than during the days of Margaret Court?

I think that only a pre-stabbing seles can deal with serena's power

No, I don't think so. Serena's whole game revolve's around power. Henin, Clijsters, Graf, Sabatini, Evert had much varied and entertaining game. Do u ever see Serena serve and volley?

Wow,
I do not agree with the notion that one needs to have a game with several variations to be considered the greatest player.
Of the players you mentioned as having a much varied and entertaining game, only Graf volleyed. Very few women tennis players are/were consistent volleyers. Among slam winners, names that come to mind are Goolagong, Navratilova, and Graf; maybe one or two others.

Graf spent most of the time at the back of the court although she could volley.
She was never a serve-volleyer like Navratilova or Novotna.
Serena is up there now one of the greatest, if she can sustain this kind of domination for the next 3-4 years then she will probably be the best ever.

she is so superior to the other Girls that there is no competition when she is fit, I believe she should be playing in the men's tournaments !
