[Zauber]

what is her game like?
where did she come from? Juiniors?
What kind of tennis experience does she have?
Thank you
Why did she get a wildcard??

 

[vogus]

nobody that i've talked to knows much about Kleybanova. What i hear is, she's a 16-yr old junior with wealthy Russian parents who lives full time in the US and has a deal with IMG to get wildcards into IW/Miami and hardly plays the rest of the year.

 

[ZAK]

She is actually quite accomplished in juniors. She won the Banana Bowl (big junior's tournament held every March in Brazil on clay) in 2003 and 2004. She got as high as #3 in the junior rankings.

As for her game: her weapon is her two handed backhand, but her forehand can get a bit loopy. Also she's a pretty big girl and struggles with her mvement.

crap crap crap

She won Luxilon Cup last yeat and that's how she got a wild card into Miami MD

She used to be considered as tennis phenom, but kinda stopped developing tennis wise

 

[ZAK]

Oh and she got her WC because she won the junior's Miami tournament(Luxilon Cup) last year

 

[tenn_ace]

she double bageled Stevenson last year in Moscow and was up a set against Karatancheva before losing a match

 

[tenn_ace]

She won the first 10k she entered (when she was 14) making it all the way from qualies and making to the final of the next one

 

[Slumpsova]

didn't she just finish high school last year? that's the reason why she hardly play for a year.

her record for 2005

 

[vogus]

Three 25K titles in three months? Kleybanova ought to be playing full time, because that's close to Top 100 level results. You have to strike while the iron is hot.

 

[Zauber]

thank you
intresting

 

[goldenlox]

Alisa is a big girl

 

[RR-87]

She is very promising and will be in top 10 for sure

 

[CooCooCachoo]

If she chose to get a high school education as well, that is great

 

[Tom Boonen]

Jodie is the Kleybanova specialist , she have all the info you want :lol:
