Capriati to miss U.S. Open; past seven women's champs entered
July 20, 2005
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) -- Jennifer Capriati will miss the U.S. Open with a
shoulder injury, making her the only woman who's won a Grand Slam title in
the past five years not on the tournament entry list released Wednesday.
Major champions Serena and Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Lindsay
Davenport, Justine Henin-Hardenne, Anastasia Myskina and reigning U.S. Open
champion Svetlana Kuznetsova head the women's field.
That group includes the winners of the past seven U.S. Opens.
Capriati hasn't played since being injured in November and had surgery on her
right shoulder in January. She won the Australian Open in 2001 and 2002, and
the French Open in 2001, and was a semifinalist at the U.S. Open three of the
past four years.
Ninety-eight of the top 100 women in the rankings are entered. No. 42
Capriati and No. 87 Paola Suarez, also injured, are the exceptions.
The United States and Russia each has 13 women among the 104 who received
direct entry into the field. Thirty countries are represented.
This week's WTA Tour rankings were used to determine the main draw entrants,
and seedings will be based on the Aug. 22 rankings. The draw is Aug. 24.
Sixteen women will get into the tournament through qualifying, and eight
others will get wild cards.
The men's field will be announced Thursday for the year's final Grand Slam
tournament, which runs Aug. 29 through Sept. 11.
