Latent heat: Dominika Cibulkova

18 years old Slovakian Dominika Cibulkova is one of the most promising players on WTA Tour. She got into the spotlight in 2007, when she climbed more than 100 places in the ranking to reach the Top 50. But she had still to get a big win over a top player or a remarkable result in an important tournament to get more attention.


And she has done in 2008. In the first Tier I of the season, in Doha, she has reached the quarter finals. And what is more important, she got very convincing victories over top players Lucie Safarova (WTA #39), Patty Schnyder (WTA #12) and Venus Williams (WTA #7) in straight sets. There she was defeated by one of the best players in 2008 season so far, Agnieszka Radwanska, in a though match decided in the third set. With these results she has broken into the Top 40.


Furthermore, Dominika is considered by many fans as one of the hottest players. Although she's not very tall (only 161 centimeters), she has already done modelling and photoshoots. With remarkable blue eyes and a very sexy mouth, she's one of the prettiest faces on Tour.
