Anastasia Myskina Free Screensaver. Photos slideshow. Anastasia Andreyevna Myskina (born July 8, 1981, Moscow, Russia) is a professional tennis player from Russia. She started playing tennis at 6 with her parents , she then went to the Spartak club in Moscow where she was coached by Marat Safin's mother until they left for Spain in 1994. Anastasia is trained by Svitoslav Mirza since 1994 and has improved every year since even reaching a career rank of #41 in July 2000! She is an established top-10 player and picked up the seventh tournament win of her career when successfully retaining her Doha title. Like most of her fellow Russians, Myskina has a tidy game from the back of the court, and also boasts a neat touch at the net. However, her record against the likes of the Williams sisters, Justine Henin-Hardenne, Lindsay Davenport and Jennifer Capriati is poor. It is also time for Myskina to make an impact at Grand Slam level but her record in Paris is woeful, having never made the third round in four attempts. Anastasia turned professional in 1998, the year in which she broke into the WTA top 500. The very next year, she entered the top 100 and went on to end 2002 in the top 20 and 2003 in the top 10. On March 8, 2004, she was ranked no. 5 in the world. She has won 8 WTA tour singles titles in her career as of 2004, with the most recent being Roland Garros. She routed fellow Russian Elena Dementieva 6-2, 6-1 in the final to become the first Russian woman to win a Grand Slam singles event.
