The 16-year-old ice hockey fan has quickly become the tour's pin-up, but she has genuine talent to back it up. Ranked 25th in the world, it would surpirse no one to see hit reach the final stages. But she not in great form going into the championships, going out in the first round in Lou Angeles to Ankj Hubjt, 6-0 6-1.

Seeded sixth this year, she has put in a solid build-up with an appearance in the final in Lou Angeles, where she lost in three sets to Monica Seles. Ninth seed Mary Pierce got to the semi- finals at San Diego, but once there she could only take two games off a rampant Martina Hinges. If she avoids Hinges and Monica Seles she has an outside chance of winning. Football 302 Cricket 340 M/Sport 360 General 380 Rugby 370 Golf 330 MenDraw Stadium Henman Main Menu
