US OPEN WOMEN'S PROFILES

(15) Dinara Safina
PRE-TOURNAMENT ODDS:	33/1
NATIONALITY:	RUS
BIRTH DATE:	27/04/86
BECAME PRO:	2000
WORLD RANKING:	16

VERDICT

Safina has yet to shake off the tag of 'Marat Safin's sister'. And until she makes a significant impact on one of the Grand Slam events - as her famous sibling has done - she will continue to do so. It's hard to see her competing for the top prize here. The Russian has struggled for form since making an early exit at Wimbledon and has not beaten a player in the top 10 since January. Looks one seed to oppose early on.
