I've been a fan of Ana since 2004, when she defeated Tatiana Golovin in Zurich and then lost 76 76 to Venus Williams, after missing out 7 set points in both sets combined.

I think she will be number 1 someday and she'll win the Grand Slam. She just has to learn how to control her emotions better. She's doing pretty good at the moment. She has a tough draw at this year's Us Open but to be the best you have to beat the best, right? She can do it.

Great article about a great person and athlete. Good luck for the Us Open Ana.
