| VERDICT |
 |
| It is now four years since Venus lifted the Venus Rosewater Dish - the last time she won at the highest level - and her days of winning the majors appear to be behind her. However, if ever there is a venue where another Grand Slam could come her way, it is here where she reached four finals in a row between 2000 and 2003. A decent volleyer, athletic and with a long reach, Venus is ideally suited to the grass. Will need to put disappointing results behind her and tune in mentally if she is to make a challenge. |
