Behind them lurks a horde of Sharapova's fellow Russians, including defending U.S. Open champ Svetlana Kuznetsova and Elena Dementieva; Belgians Kim Clijsters and Justine Henin-Hardenne; and France's Amélie Mauresmo. Any one of them could win the Open. The men's game, on the other hand, has been dominated by the silent Swiss Roger Federer. The only mystery concerns who will be Federer...
