Welcome to Beijing, China! Last year we saw Peng beating Morigami in an all Asian final. Noone had expected them in the finals with players like Dementieva or Jankovic competing. Jankovic must be the favourite to win seeing her winning in Beijing not long ago at the Olympics (http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=357463#). Her streak went on with winning New York and Tokyo, but this week won't be a cakewalk.Peng is here again,Morigami is out injured, Elena Dementieva wants to regain her confidence,too. Other well known players are Ana Ivanovic,Agnieszka Radwanska or Dinara Safina. Vote now as the competition gets underway!
