I hope Jelena Jankovic finally proved to be worthy of occupying the No.1 spot in the rankings by winning her third title in 15 days (after China Open and Stuttgart). The top-seeded Serb prevented Russian Vera Zvonareva from scoring victory in a Tier I final for the first time.
Both players were competing in their sixth final of the year, but Jankovic was more successful, defeating the seventh-seeded Muscovite 6-2 6-4 and taking home her fourth title of the 2008 season.
On her way to the Kremlin Cup trophy and $196,900 in Moscow, the 23-year-old Jankovic defeated Vera Dushevina, Flavia Pennetta, third seed Elena Dementieva, and eventually Vera Zvonareva.
BTW: World No.4 Elena Dementieva said this about Jankovic’s tennis: “Her defensive game is just phenomenal, and it’s almost impossible to hit a good shot from the baseline because she can cover the whole court. No matter what shot you hit, she is able to get to it and hits everything back at you. It seems like she can cover not only a tennis court but a whole soccer field.”
Yes, she’s playing the brand of tennis that says “i’m confident, i’m #1”.It’ll only be a matter of time before she wins one of the 4 Grand Slams next year..
she will won all 4 slams even she didnt sucseed in that she will stay the best face in tennis in the world!!!made in serbia :))))))
