The Young Guns

Elena Dementieva (Rus)

A surprise U.S. Open semifinalist and Olympic silver medallist, she had entered the U.S. Open a relative unknown.

A good mover on court, she possesses a quiet confidence and seems focused and single minded.

Will this 19-year-old, 5 ft. 11 in. tall Russian, turn out to be a Kournikova with trophies?
