Welcome to the green lawns of SW19 for the season's third Grand Slam. This Slam is very wide open with a whole host of players capable of taking away the title right now.
Alize Cornet makes her return to the tour after a long layoff, so it will be interesting to see what kind of form she is in…. It should be an exciting tournament!!
Malek won here last year and is sitting at #10 in the rankings at the moment – but can she defend her title considering her recent slumping form?

I'm always in Molik's part of the draw. I was when she was the top seed, second seed, now third seed.
Fight for #1 between Cirstea, Azarenka & Molik :drool:

That should give you more opportunity to work out how to beat her ;)
I bet it is frustrating trying though! :(
Hele.

My apologies, I thought you were not too pleased about being in her part of the draw continually, if you're beating her consistantly .... BONUS! :bounce:
Alicia Molik is now in doubt for the US Open after twisting her ankle at MP for Vaidisova during the recent Wimbledon tournament. Her absence would be a great shame for the sport. "The fall didn't look serious but the doctor said that I should not play tennis for 5 weeks. I'm forced now to withdraw from all tournaments after Wimbledon and I just hope that I will have enough time to prepare to the tournament in New York." said Alicia.

What a tournament for Cibulkova!!! She claims her first tour title, and what a time to do it! Great comeback tournament for Cornet, who seemed to just run out of steam a little today as she allowed Cibulkova to get 5-0 leads in each set, which proved too much to fight back from. Corent has shown that she has what it takes to get back to the top end of the game.Cibulkova pretty much cuts her ranking in half after her result here, and she will hope to carry on her sparkling form onto the hard courts
Hele.
