| Friday, June 1 Capriati is still looking good to win it all By Pam Shriver Special to ESPN.com |

Three weeks ago, I picked Jennifer Capriati to win the title in ESPN The Magazine and see no reason to change my opinion so far. She faces Serena Williams in the quarterfinals for what should be a tough matchup.
If it comes down to a semifinal between Capriati and Martina Hingis, whoever wins that match will win the title. The other semifinal could be an all-Belgian one if Kim Clijsters and Justine Henin both advance. A lot of great young teen-agers have taken advantage of the open bottom half of the draw with the loss of Lindsay Davenport before play started and Venus Williams going out in the first round. When the draw opens up, you've got to be ready to take advantage of it, and these players have.
Martina Hingis (1), Switzerland, vs. Francesca Schiavone, Italy
Jennifer Capriati (4), United States vs. Serena Williams (6), United States
Kim Clijsters (12), Belgium, vs. Petra Mandula, Hungary
Lina Krasnoroutskaya, Russia, vs. Justine Henin (14), Belgium |
