Who thinks jelena jankovic has a chance of winning her first slam at the upcoming u.s open??

Question

she'll be #1 by next week and would probably be able to stay there for 2weeks or so, maybe this would give her much motivation to finally get it all together and win a slam, also to prove she deserves the #1 spot, right?.. i love watching her play and thinks she's got the game and all but somehow something always goes wrong and she doesn't even reach a slam final..

Answer 1

i think she has a fair chance at it....

with a relatively benign draw.... she can run deep

she will have to beef up the forehand a bit be more aggressive and go for more winners..

She will have to be a bit more offensive...

But most importantly she will have to be mentally tougher and not self destruct when things are not going her way...

i think she is due, but its up to her if she gets there or not..

Answer 2

She probably has as good a chance as anybody else. However, I think she calls for trainer too often in her matches for 'injuries'. I believe her reasons for seeking medical attention are psychological and a representation of her mental frailty in big matches against big opponents with big opportunities at stake. If she can find confidence between now and then I think she will go into the tournament as one of the favorites.

Answer 3

I think she has a decent chance. She'll most likely make it to quarters, if not the semi's. But I would pick other players over her to win such as Safina, Kutznetsova and Ivanovic.

Answer 4

no way

Answer 5

depends on her knee-because she still,in spite of her talking down of the injury,looked rather weak on it. i really believe that's why she's lost so soon in the last two tourney's....coming up against stronger opponents in safina and cibulkova,who truly exposed the injury.

but if it's not a hinderance i certainly would put her chances up there next to safina because of her strength on hard courts and the lack of depth that might be present. i mean sharapova is out,ana doesn't look as mentally together as before her wimby loss and she has a thumb injury,serena and venus have knee injuries,svetlana is not as consistent as she was prior to the clay season....so for me,safina and jelena are the more logical top players. although safina more so. i also would give dark horse chances to cibulkova,azarenka and possibly wozinaki who just won in sweden.

Answer 6

I don't think she will win it. One of the WIlliams Sisters will or Ivanovic. Sharapova is out. So they have their chances. OR MAYBE EVEN SAFINA!!! evry answer this http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
