Tennis pro Ana Ivanovic is currently ranked 18 on the WTA Tour and is the ambassador for the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. Photographed above at the Dubai International airport by Zarina Fernandes of Gulf News, Ivanovic is wearing a grey jersey dress with frills from Sydney-based designer Mrs Press. Ana reportedly makes $140,323 playing professional tennis, but her off the court earnings reach into the millions of dollars. It was calculated at $7 million last year by Forbes.
Ana Ivanovic keeps her body in shape with running, weight training, and rope jumping. In an interview with Gulf News Ivanovic says that despite making millions in endorsements, she would really like to make it back to the number one position in women's tennis: "I really hope I am on my way back. It has been a very tough two years. I was taking things for granted. At first everything seemed easy, I was winning a lot of matches and getting a lot of success, but now I have learnt to appreciate the good times, because in your career there are always going to be ups and downs no matter what you do." With all those millions and Ana's achievements in tennis came fame, and the loss of privacy: "I have never really found myself comfortable in that kind of limelight. I like to have my privacy. I don't like people knowing what I do in my free time. I am also a very shy person, but I understand that people want to know more."
