ana ivanovic 2007 - First breakthrough
2007 - First breakthrough
Seeded 13th at the Australian Open in Melbourne, Ivanović defeated Polish player Agnieszka Radwańska in the second round but lost in the third round to Vera Zvonareva. Immediately after this tournament, she announced that she had split with her coach David Taylor.
At the Tier I Pacific Life Open in Indian Wells, California, she was defeated in the fourth round by Sybille Bammer. Yaroslava Shvedova then defeated Ivanović in the second round of the Tier I Sony Ericsson Open in Miami Masters.
Ivanović then returned to Europe to play two clay court tournaments in preparation for the French Open. In Berlin at the Qatar Telecom German Open, she won her first Tier I clay court title, defeating World No. 4 Svetlana Kuznetsova in the final. However, Ivanović injured her ankle during the final, which forced her to withdraw from the Tier I Internazionali BNL d'Italia in Rome. The win in Berlin propelled her into the top ten of the WTA Rankings for the first time, at World No. 8.
Ivanović had a six-match winning streak heading into the French Open and increased this streak to twelve by reaching the final. She won her first three matches with the loss of only nine games. In her second career quarterfinal at Roland Garros, Ivanović defeated World No. 3 Kuznetsova, and she then beat World No. 2 Sharapova in the semifinals. In the final, Ivanović attempted to win her first Grand Slam singles title and complete a sweep of the top three players in the world. However, World No. 1 and two-time defending champion Justine Henin won the match. Later on, Ivanović admitted that the idea of being in the final of a Grand Slam tournament had overwhelmed her.[citation needed]
At Wimbledon, Ivanović defeated World No. 9 Nadia Petrova in the fourth round and saved three match points to defeat Nicole Vaidišová in the quarterfinals . In the semifinals, three-time former Wimbledon champion Venus Williams defeated Ivanović in straight sets.
Warming up at the 2007 US Open
A persistent knee injury sustained at Wimbledon caused Ivanović to withdraw from Serbian Fed Cup competition with Slovakia and two lead up events to the US Open.[15] She returned to the tour at the East West Bank Classic in Carson, California, saving two match points in the semifinals before defeating Janković. In the final, Ivanović defeated Petrova to win the fourth singles title of her career, which increased her ranking to a career high of World No. 4.
In Ivanović's first three matches at the US Open, she lost only 10 games. Venus Williams then eliminated her for the second consecutive time at a Grand Slam tournament.
Ivanović returned to Europe for three tournaments. At the Tier II Luxembourg Championships, Ivanović qualified for the Sony Ericsson Championships by virtue of reaching the semifinals. In the final, Ivanović rallied from 6–3, 3–0 down to defeat Hantuchová in two hours and 25 minutes. This was her fifth career title.
To end the year, Ivanović played the Sony Ericsson Championships in Madrid, Spain. Seeded fourth and assigned to the Red Group during the Round Robin phase, she defeated World No. 2 Kuznetsova in a three-set match and Hantuchová in straight sets. Sharapova then defeated Ivanović in the final match of the round robin. Because she finished second in her group, Ivanović played World No. 1 Henin in the semifinals, in which the Belgian won.
Ivanović finished the year with a career-high ranking of World No. 4.
