Hantuchova has put her troubles behind her to return to the world's top 10, having claimed the second title of her career in Indian Wells in March - the same place where she collected her first winner's cheque in 2002. That was before her alarming weight loss made her the centre of some unwelcome press attention and led to her falling out of the top 50. Now back to her best, she will be hopeful of going deep into this tournament, but a poor record in the Big Apple, coupled with some disappointing warm-up results, suggests she may struggle.
