LYCOS RETRIEVER 
Myskina: Shes No
built 617 days ago
Myskina is a student at the Sports University in Moscow, studying to be a coach, though it is not a job she intends to take up when she retires. "I have other ideas," she said. One of them does not include, as in the case of Serena Williams, becoming an actress.

Myskina's departure removed one of the top seeds from Alicia Molik's side of the draw - handy for the Australian, who is in fine form. Molik began her Sydney campaign well when she defeated the world No.18, Italian Francesca Schiavone, 7-6 (7-4), 6-1 in the first round on centre court yesterday.

With the win, Myskina takes one step closer to a Top 10 return. Should she win in Stockholm, she would displace Lindsay Davenport at No.10. Myskina first entered the Top 10 on February 17, 2003, and spent 113 of the next 123 weeks among that elite. Since dropping out on August 1, 2005, she has hovered between No.11 and No.14; now, she has a strong chance to return.

Myskina herself was not entirely immune to nerves. However, she managed to control herself at key moments, preferring the simple, rolled crosscourt shot rather than the high-risk efforts Dementieva seemed bent on.

"It is awesome...really great," Myskina said. "I mean I would love it if there were four of us in the semi-finals. "For a while everybody has been saying 'the Russians are coming'. "Well now we are here."

The New York judge who presided over the case held that Myskina's rights were not violated despite her insistence that she did not understand the signed model release and was not fluent in English at the time. Instead, the Judge stated that, "absent allegations of fraud, duress or some other wrongdoing, Myskina's claimed misunderstanding of the release's terms does not excuse her from being bound on the contract. Nor can she avoid her obligations under the release because of her purported failure to read its contents."
