FRENCH OPEN WOMEN'S PROFILES

(11) Nadia Petrova
PRE-TOURNAMENT ODDS:	18-1
NATIONALITY:	RUS
BIRTH DATE:	08/06/82
BECAME PRO:	1999
WORLD RANKING:	12 (as of 21/05/07)

VERDICT

Twice a semi-finalist at Roland Garros, Petrova enjoyed a superb run on her favoured clay last season but saw her French Open hopes scuppered by a hip injury picked up just days before the tournament. She's won indoors in Paris this year but hasn't impressed outside. She's suffered surprise losses on the dirt at Amelia Island (in the final) and Warsaw (last 16) and also picked up a back injury in Rome. Will need to turn things around pretty quickly to challenge here.
