Wimbledon 2011 Featured Player: Misaki Doi
Misaki Doi of Japan, currently ranked #133, is causing a stir in Wimbledon 2011, as this qualifier has now reached the third round! In the first round, she upset the Lady Gaga of women's tennis, Bethanie Mattek-Sands, ranked #31, 64 57 75, and today, she comprehensively defeated Zheng Jie of China, ranked #84, 61 63!
Her next opponent though is Sabine Lisicki of Germany, who today, upset French Open champion Li Na, so it's going to be a tough round for her.
Even then, her success here should push her into the Top 100 in the next few weeks.
