Francesca Schiavone Most Popular Tennis Player Images

Francesca Schiavone is the ultimate proof that tennis is not necessarily a young person’s game. She won her maiden slam at Roland Garros last year, two weeks before she turned 30 and is undoubtedly playing the best tennis of her career at an age when most peers are considering retirement.

Before the 2010 French Open Schiavone had played 38 slams and reached three quarter finals. This record suggests not only that she was a surprise winner, but also that longevity is a worthy trait – those 38 appearances were consecutive, so injuries have never been an issue for this well-prepared athlete. Those looking at the in-play betting should remember this.

The Italian clay-court specialist will be hoping to defend the French Open title she won in surprising fashion last year.

Schiavone saw off Samantha Stosur in the 2010 final after a memorable run which saw her catapult from relative obscurity into the world's top six.

She has failed to recreate that form since, not winning a single WTA title in the last 11 months, although she ran Caroline Wozniacki close in the last eight of the Australian Open.

Her performances on clay so far have not been overly impressive, with exits at the last 16 stage in both Madrid and Stuttgart not what most were expecting.

But the 30-year-old should not be discounted as she is clearly at home on the clay and her single-handed backhand remains one of the most stylish weapons in the women's game.

chiavone made the most of her forehands and kick serves. The Italian surprised Dokic with her low lying slices and massive forehands. The Italian lost the second set in a breeze but then re-grouped herself nicely to work her strokes fluently in the final set. The Italian easily earned two breaks in the final set to win the match, 6-4, 1-6, 6-3. The Italian took 2 hours and 5 minutes to win the match, as she hammered 20 winners and got benefitted from Dokic’s 28 unforced errors.

Victoria Azarenka Top Female Tennis Player Photos Gallery




The heatwave affecting America’s East Coast claimed its first casualty at the US Open on Wednesday when 10th seed Victoria Azarenka departed the tournament in a wheelchair after collapsing on court.

The 21-year-old from Belarus, one of many credible outside bets for the women’s title, keeled over when trailing Argentina’s Gisela Dulko 5-1 in their first round match as
temperatures again came close to three figures.

Eighth-seeded wildcard Victoria Azarenka registered a convincing 6-4, 6-1 win over fifth-seeded Maria Sharapova on Sunday afternoon to capture the singles title at the 2010 Bank of the West Classic.

Azarenka claimed her fourth career singles title- all on hard court- while becoming the fifth different Bank of the West Classic singles champion in the last five years. With the win, she improves to 4-6 in 10 career finals. Azarenka, who celebrated her 21st birthday yesterday, is projected to rise to No. 12 in the Monday’s new Sony Ericsson WTA Tour singles rankings after winning the title.

A quarter-final appearance at the Australian Open suggested she meant business, but since then only a final appearance in Dubai is worth mentioning.

The 20-year-old split with long-time coach Antonio Van Grichen and her game has unravelled several times this year, revealing her fiery temper.

Possessing one of the best two-handed backhands in the game, as well as one of the loudest grunts, the American-based star has the ability to go deep in a major, but a first-round exit in Paris has summed up her current slump.

A good draw is imperative to her chances of reaching the second week at Wimbledon and current form suggests Azarenka is a long shot for the title.
