Sharapova absent from Kremlin Cup

MOSCOW (Reuters) -- World No. 1 Justine Henin will make her Kremlin Cup debut
after being named the top seed at the Tier I tournament, local organizers
said on Wednesday.

The Belgian will be joined by former world No. 1 Amelie Mauresmo of France
and a host of leading Russian players, including world No. 4 Svetlana
Kuznetsova and defending champion sixth-ranked Anna Chakvetadze.

However, world No. 2 Maria Sharapova, who took part in the $1.3 million
indoor tournament in Moscow in the last two years, will be absent.

"Maria and her camp have decided to skip our tournament this year," Kremlin
Cup executive director Alexander Katsnelson told Reuters. "They felt that
because Maria did not play well here the last two times, it would be
appropriate that she gives it a miss this year."

Sharapova was forced to pull out of the Kremlin Cup with a foot injury last
year and was beaten by compatriot Dinara Safina in the quarterfinals in 2005.

The Kremlin Cup will be held at Moscow's Olympic sports complex from Oct. 6
to 14.

juju要首度參加Kremlin Cup?
不過官網還沒有確定是否消息正確
若是的話下半年預計參加六項比賽呢 包括剛奪冠的 Toronto 及現在 US Open
還有四項比賽:

September 17 China Open Beijing
October 8 Kremlin Cup Moscow
October 15 Zurich Open Zurich
November 5 Sony Ericsson championships Madrid

不知道要是ju美網奪冠還會去北京打嗎？
爾且現在有肩傷 感覺年終賽前能打一兩項賽事就可以偷笑了....
anyway 希望能多拿點積分拉開差距 早日確定年終第一
