SERBIAN tennis glamour girl Ana Ivanovic, born on November 6, 1987, Birth City: Belgrade, Serbia, will be spending Christmas in Queens land in the lead-up to the Brisbane International.

Women's world number two Ana Ivanovic will be looking to get some form and momentum going in Brisbane before attempting to go one better than her runners-up title at the 2008 Australian Open.

Ivanovic last month confirmed to a Spanish website that she was dating the hero of Spain's Davis Cup final win in Argentina last Sunday week. "We met at the US Open (in August) and then it all started," Ivanovic, the French Open champion, said. "He's a fantastic guy and I'm very happy with him."

Forbes Magazine conducted a research and consequently published that the Swiss tennis giant has earned $35m in the past 12 months from sponsorship contracts alone. The second place in the list is taken by Maria Sharapova, who has improved her bank account balance by $26m, despite the fact she has been away from tennis for six months already through injury. Serbia’s Novak Djokovic assumes the place number eight with $9.5m, followed by Ana Ivanovic with eight million dollars.
