Pierce Fourth to Qualify for the Championships
Two-time Grand Slam champion clinches fourth spot in prestigious eight-player
singles field that includes fellow Grand Slam champions Maria Sharapova, Kim
Clijsters and Lindsay Davenport; tight race brewing for last four spots in
coveted season-ending event at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles; reigning
Wimbledon champions Cara Black and Liezel Huber clinch first spot in four-team
doubles field.
ST. PETERSBURG, FL USA – Two-time Grand Slam champion Mary Pierce clinched a
spot in the prestigious season-ending Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Championships
presented by Porsche at STAPLES Center, bringing the list of Grand Slam
champions in the field so far to four, the Tour announced today. In doubles,
reigning Wimbledon champions Cara Black and Liezel Huber became the first duo
to secure a place in the four-team doubles field.
Pierce, whose resurgence at age 30 has been one of the biggest stories in
women’s tennis this year, joins fellow Grand Slam champions Maria Sharapova,
Kim Clijsters and Lindsay Davenport in the coveted eight-player singles field
that will battle it out in Los Angeles, Nov. 8-13. This will be Pierce’s seventh
career appearance in the Championships and her first since 1999. She posted her
best result in 1997 when she reached the final.
Pierce of France sealed a place in the Championships after winning the Ladies
Kremlin Cup in Moscow on Sunday, which vaulted her to fourth place in the
latest Porsche Race to the Championships standings with 3,184 points. She is
currently ranked fifth in this week’s Sony Ericsson WTA Tour rankings with a
match record of 39-12.
At age 30, after struggling for years with injuries and falling in the rankings
, Pierce has begun to soar again, particularly during the second half of the
season. She has won two prestigious titles (the Acura Classic in San Diego as
well as Ladies Kremlin Cup title) and reached the final at Roland Garros and
the US Open, which has helped vault her back into the top five in the rankings
for the first time since 2000.
