The teams who have dominated the doubles game and risen to the top of the WTA rankings together.

01 /13
Lisa Raymond and Rennae Stubbs were the best doubles team at the start of the new millenium; the US-Aussie pair began 2000 with their first major title at the Australian Open, becoming Co-No.1s just before that year's US Open.

Virginia Ruano Pascual and Paola Suárez became Co-No.1s in the summer of 2004 after capturing the first two legs of the Calendar Year Grand Slam, winning a total of eight majors as a team.

Lisa Raymond ascended to Co-No.1 again in 2006, this time with Aussie Sam Stosur, with whom she reached five major finals - winning two at the 2005 US Open and 2006 French Open.
04 /13
Liezel Huber joined Cara Black atop the WTA Doubles rankings at the end of 2007, when the team won the WTA Finals in Madrid - capping a successful successful season that saw them win two of the four major tournaments at the Australian Open and Wimbledon.

The sport's preeminent sister act, Venus and Serena Williams have dominated the doubles scene throughout their storied singles careers, winning three Olympic Gold medals in addition to their 13 Grand Slam doubles titles.

Flavia Pennetta joined partner and good friend Gisela Dulko a few weeks after the two won their first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open; the team known as Dulketta had also ended 2010 with a win at the WTA Finals in Doha.
