Jelena Dokic springs another surprise run on all of us, by reaching the quarterfinals of the prestigious Paris Open. Currently ranked #120, she had two big victories over Lucie Safarova of the Czech Republic (#30) and Nadia Petrova of Russia (#20), before her run was cut short by Kim Clijsters 63 60. That, in a way, illustrates her current form, against the #2 player in the world. Well, she should break near the Top 100 next week when the rankings are released. We hope she continues her good form although she has been more famous for her erratic ones.
