On fire: Jelena Jankovic


Serbian Jelena Jankovic has been on fire on the last three weeks. Not only she's one of the few players who has won three consecutive titles in three weeks (Beijing, Stuttgart and Moscow), but she has also shown a big superiority over her rivals, obtaining very clear straight sets victories in the finals over Svetlana Kuznetsova, Nadia Petrova and Vera Zvonareva. Moreover, she has recovered the WTA #1 place in the ranking, which she held just for a week. And she has increased the distance to her competitors, almost assuring this #1 spot at the end of the season ranking.


Jankovic is one of the most athletic players on Tour. Her great speed, flexibility and resistance makes her the best defender on Tour. And she's the most regular player in WTA right now, as she's able to mantain her great physical condition throughout the season even if she plays many tournaments and matches.


She may not be one of the prettiest faces on the Tour, but her body is one of the fittest (and hottest). Furthermore, her possitive and original personality makes her one of the most appreciated players by the fans.
