The Slovak-born Australian Jarmila Groth (former Gajdosova) is the highest new entry in our list after a fantastic 2010 season, winning her first WTA title in Guangzhou and breaking into the Top-50. And she has started 2011 in a great way too, winning her 2nd WTA title at Hobart and climbing to #31.

After a very promising junior career reaching #1 and winning the US Open at the age of 15, Krajicek had an early breakthrough breaking into the Top-50 at 17. But after a big slump in 2008 due to personal and familiar problems, she has not been able to recover her top status.

Harkleroad planned comeback in 2010 was put on hold just after 3 tournaments as she got pregnant and is expecting her second child. Anyway, she deserves a good place in our list due to her Playboy photoshoot in 2008.
