Mover of the week
Svetlana Kuznetsova proves what doing well at a big tournament can do for your ranking. After an impressive run at the Western & Southern Open (she made it to the final), Kuznetsova is back in the top hundred. Another player who fell victim to injury, the Russian was even contemplating retirement; however, despite her age, her game is still lethal, and she showcased her talent this past week. Kuznetsova knocked out four seeded players, including the number one seed, en route to the final. The boost to her ranking earned her our player of the week honors. We hope she can take this form into the last major of the season and do some serious damage.
