Player details
Name Svetlana Kuznetsova
DOB 27/06/85
Nationality RUS
Pre-Tournament Odds 25/1
Became Pro 2000
Seeding 4
World Ranking 4
Yet to win on tour this season but will be encouraged by reaching the semi-finals at Roland Garros. Kuznetsova has reached the quarter-finals on three of her five visits to Wimbledon but has yet to reach the last four - a poor return for the 2004 US Open champion. Kuznetsova has a huge forehand which can cause anyone trouble but keeping it consistent for seven rounds will be tough. A former Eastbourne winner, she has qualities she has yet to fully exploit here.
