The Resume

    (November 7, 1977- )
    Resides in Barcelona, Spain
    First person to beat a defending French Open champ in the first round (May 23, 2005)

Why she might be annoying:

    She occasionally gets into the second round of a grand slam or WTA match and rarely has gone to the third round.
    Her rankings dropped from 41 in 1999 to 99 in 2000 and then sank to 215 in 2001.
    Anastasia Myskina did not have her heart in the game as her mom is gravely ill.
    Anastasia Myskina had 69 unforced errors when she beat her.
    In the next (second) round of the 2005 French Open she was defeated in straight sets by Emmanuelle Gagliarid of Switzerland.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She is the first person to oust a returning French Open champion in the first round (May 23, 2005). She beat defending champion Anastasia Myskina (6-4, 4-6, 6-0).
    She was ranked 109th when she beat Anastasia Myskina.
    After her victory she felt Anastasia Myskina's pain saying 'People told me about her personal problems, It's not about her game. I think it's about her mind. I feel so sorry for her I hope she will recover soon.'
    In 2003 she improved her ranking to 42 from 216 just two years earlier.
