Liga Dekmeijere

Liga Dekmeijere picturesLiga Dekmeijere's shirt says "All men are dangerous." But we think Liga is pretty dangerous herself. The Latvian beauty has a WTA doubles ranking of 87, and won her first WTA doubles title earlier this year at Vina del Mar, Chile. She reached another WTA doubles final a few weeks ago at S'Hertogenbosch.

Liga began playing tennis at age six and is coached by her father. Perhaps that's who taught her the two-handed backhand. She has a sister who captains Latvian women's national hockey team.

In addition to Liga's recent highlights on the WTA doubles circuit, she has won around 16 career doubles title in ITF tournaments.
