Vera Zvonareva (born September 7, 1984, Moscow, Russia) is a professional tennis player from Russia. She was introduced to tennis at the age of six and turned professional in 2000. She finished 2002 in the WTA top 50 and 2003 in the top 20.
Career
Zvonareva has won five WTA Tour singles titles, four WTA Tour doubles titles and two ITF Women's Circuit singles titles. In her first few years on the pro tour, she became known for her fragile psyche, often breaking down in tears during matches. Critics cited her unstable emotions as a reason why her results may have fallen short of her expectations. Her first Slam quarterfinal came at the 2003 French Open, defeating Venus Williams in the fourth round.
She won women's doubles in the US Open in 2006 partnering Nathalie Dechy of France. She also won mixed doubles in the US Open in 2004 and the 2006 Wimbledon mixed doubles with Andy Ram of Israel 6-2, 6-3 against Bob Bryan and Venus Williams. In the 2006 US Open, she also played with Andy Ram.
