| Time to Defend Tokyo |
A year ago, no one would ever think that Elena Dementieva would win her first Tier 1 title at Tokyo. After losing at the first round of the Aussie Open in 2006, everyone thought that Dementieva is going downhill. And then she won Tokyo, crushing then-omeback kid Martina Hingis 2 and 0.
A year later, she comes in seeded 3rd at the Tokyo Pan Pacific Open behind Maria Sharapova and Martina Hingis. Seeded 4th is Jelena Jankovic who started the year on fire. The top 4 seeds received a 1st round bye.
Here are Elena's possible opponents for this tournament:
- 2R: Elena Likhovtseva or Gisela Dulko
- QF: Daniela Hantuchova or Marion Bartoli
- SF: Vera Zvonareva or Martina Hingis
On the top haldf resides Maria Sharapova, Jelena Jankovic and Shahar Peer. I think that Elena's draw is quite manageable. But as we all know, Elena is Elena. I hope she's really motivated right now. She has a lot of points to defend here and a lot of girls are catching up. Losing the early round here is not an option. I hope she prepared well for this. I don't want to see her dropping out of the Top 10.
Go Elena! |
