Week #42 preview: Zurich

Zurich (SWI), Tier I, $600,000
All the eyes in Zurich will be set on WTA #1 Jelena Jankovic, who will try to make history winning her 4th title in four consecutive weeks after her victories in Beijing, Stuttgart and Moscow. Venus Williams, Vera Zvonareva and Agnieszka Radwanska, who are fighting for a place in Sony Ericsson championships, will be her main opponents, as Serbian Ana Ivanovic doesn't seem a major threat at the moment. But this season end tournaments are full of surprises, as some players get in bad condition while others are more fresh, so we players such as Nadia Petrova, Victoria Azarenka, Katarina Srebotnik, Patty Schnyder, Flavia Pennetta, Marion Bartoli, Na Li, Sybille Bammer or Francesca Schiavone could advance to final rounds.
