(30) OLGA POUTCHKOVA

PRE-TOURNAMENT ODDS: 300/1
NATIONALITY: RUS
BIRTH DATE: 27/09/87
BECAME PRO: 2002
WORLD RANKING: 32
VERDICT
The latest in a long line of Russian teenagers to surge up the WTA rankings. Really came to the fore at the back end of last season by reaching the finals in Kolkata and Quebec City. Has found things tougher this season and the signs for Wimbledon are not good. She will be making her debut at the All England Club just weeks after playing her first grasscourt match. That resulted in a 6-0 6-0 defeat at Edgbaston, so Poutchkova looks one to oppose from the start.
