Welcome to Stanford, United States! As one of the most reputed US Open Series tournaments, Stanford hopes to shine as much with its tennis tournament as it does with its university. The Tier II tournament marks the serious beginning of the North American hardcourt swing, causing multiple PYW tournament winners as Daniela Hantuchova,Nicole Vaidisova and Kim Clijsters to participate in the main draw. Question remains if one of these favourites will hoist the trophy next Sunday, seeing an underdog like Kveta Peschke suprised the world here last year. Favourite or underdog?
