| VERDICT |
 |
| The former world junior champion looks set to become a big star in the senior ranks. Has just entered the world’s top 10 after reaching the fourth round at the French Open where she blew match point against the eventual champion, Anastasia Myskina. Will have learned a lot from playing doubles with the legendary Martina Navratilova, a fact which bodes well for SW19. Made the last eight last year – likely to do so again after winning the warm-up event in Eastbourne. |
