Russian number one Myskina has reached the world's top 10 after some impressive performances this year.

She won two of her four career titles this season and made 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 says she is happy playing on any surface, although she has yet to make it past the third round at Wimbledon.

Last year, the Russian was beaten in straight sets by eventual semi-finalist Amelie Mauresmo of France.

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