Ever since arriving in the game's elite with her 2004 US Open win, Kuznetsova has more often than not been around at the business end of the Grand Slams. One such occasion was here two years ago when she made the final. A player very much at home on the clay, the former world junior champion will fancy her chances in Paris, particularly given the absence of four-time winner Justine Henin. Learned much from her tour mentor and one-time doubles partner Martina Navratilova.
