"We've got a couple of really good women. Megan is a
doubles specialist who just won her first title and her game
is getting better every day. She has certain strengths like her
athleticism and volleying that match up very well with Eric in
mixed doubles," noted Greene. "And Sharon is young and she
has very good ground strikes. She's very tenacious, mentally
tough and a real fighter which are characteristics that lend
themselves to the WTT format."
Isner is currently ranked as the no. 10 singles player in
the world and Butorac, who returns for his fifth season with
Boston, is playing better tennis than ever. Butorac and part-
ner Raven Klaasen reached the finals of this year's Austra-
lian Open and recently won the US National Indoor Tennis
Championships in Memphis.
Moulton-Levy and her partner Darija Jurak won the fi-
nals at Monterrey earlier in April while Fichman is currently
no. 91 in the world women's singles and at just 23-years-old
should have lively legs during the harsh summer stretch. De
Voest meanwhile has already hinted at making a run at the
Mylan WTT men's singles title.
"Each year gets better, but I don't believe I could be more
proud of what we've put together for the fans this year," said
Uttam. "Everything from improved seating in the stadium, a
far better line up of players and having a nice mix of three
weekend and four weekday home matches so there's some-
thing for everyone. I'm very pleased with the program we've
put together for the 10th year."
