French Open | Women's seeds
ANASTASIA MYSKINA
Number 11 seed

FACTFILE
Anastasia Myskina
DOB: 08.07.1981
Nationality: Russian
World ranking: 11
Roland Garros record
2002:: first round

1999:: n/a

Russian number one Myskina has reached the world's top ten after winning two titles this season and making the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam for the first time at the Australian Open.

Her third career title came in Doha in February where she defeated compatriot Elena Likhovtseva in the first ever all-Russian final.

But Myskina, who says she is happy playing on any surface, has an ugly French Open record.

In three visits, she is yet to win a match - and last year, seeded 19th, she was upset by a qualifier.

With a tidy game, and a neat touch at the net, Myskina will be keen to get off the mark this year.
