Sabine will be playing at Bank of the West Classic tournament in Stanford, next week.
The Bank of the West Classic is the longest-running women-only professional tennis tournament in the world and is the first stop of the Olympus US Open Series. A Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Tier II event, the Bank of the West Classic is a well-established Bay Area event and features a 32-player singles draw and a 16-team doubles draw with total prize money of $700,000.
Sabine is unseeded in the draw and will be facing a Qualifier. She has quite a realisitc chance of making it to the Semifinals, as the major hurdles in her way are those pesky doublefaults of her and the 4th seed Jelena Jankovic (who is in a slump of sorts).
Waiting for her in the semifinals, is supposed to be the 11 time Grandslam Champion and her serving cousin, Serena Williams.
The complete draw for the tournament can be found at here
Viel Glück Sabine!
