Indian tennis sensation Sania Mirza and Indian born U.S. player Neha Uberoi have been given wild cards in the $3,115,000 tier-1 NASDAQ-100 Open tennis championship to be held at Miami, Florida from March 23 to April 3. Jessica Kirkland, Sesil Karatantcheva, Angela Haynes, Viktoriya Kutuzova, Anna Tatishvili, Jamea Jackson, are the other wild cards. Top players Serina Williams, Maria Sharapova, Amelie Mauresmo, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Anastasia Myskina, Elena Dementieva, Venus Williams, Vera Zvonareva, Nadia Petrova, Nathalie Dechy (Fra), Patty Schynder and Justine Henin-Hardenne have confirmed their entry in this tournament. The 77th ranked Sania said, ``this is the big event after the Australian Open in which I took part. Almost all top players are in the fray. I wouldn't say that I will win the title, but winning couple of matches is my motto. I am making some space in between other engagements for training, hoping to put up a better performance and ultimately I should reach my target of top 50 as soon as possible." — UNI
