| VERDICT |
 |
| Myskina has gone downhill fast. A superb 2004 season, which included victory at the French Open, has been followed by a string of early exits this term. A first-round loss as defending champion in Paris left the Russian admitting: "When the ball comes to me, I don't know what I have to do." However, there is an explanation - Myskina's mind has been on other matters with her mother seriously ill. That reason alone is enough to suggest she will be one to oppose in the early rounds in SW19. |
