Week #41 preview: Moscow

Moscow (RUS), Tier I, $1,340,000
New WTA #1 Jelena Jankovic will try to get her third consecutive title after her victories in Beijing and Stuttgart and secure her leading position. But she will find a very though opposition in the army of Russian players aiming to get a win in front of their crowd, headed by Dinara Safina, Elena Dementieva, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Vera Zvonareva, Anna Chakvetadze and Nadia Petrova. Venus Williams and Ana Ivanovic should be also taken into account. The field is superb, including 22 of the Top 30 players.
