Full Severine Bremond Biography
Séverine Brémond (born Séverine Beltrame August 14, 1979 in Montpellier, France) is a professional female tennis player from France.
On July 10, 2006, Brémond achieved a career-high singles ranking: World No. 65, following her success at the 2006 Wimbledon Championships, where she reached the quarterfinal of a Grand Slam event for the first time in her career—as a qualifier. On her run to the quarterfinal, Brémond defeated No. 10 Patty Schnyder in the second round for her first top 10 win, Gisela Dulko in the third round, and Ai Sugiyama in the fourth, losing to Justine Henin-Hardenne, the eventual finalist, 6-4 6-4. Brémond reached the 2nd round in the 2006 U.S. Open, where she lost to Maria Kirilenko 6-2 6-3. She also reached the quarterfinals in the Wismilak International Open defeating Trudi Musgrave and Sandy Gumulya, but lost to the eventual tournament winner Svetlana Kuznetsova. She reached a new career high singles ranking of No. 47 following this quarterfinal.
Brémond reached her first WTA Tour semifinal at the Tier III PTT Bangkok Open in Bangkok, Thailand. She beat Ryoko Fuda, Klara Zakopalova, and Eleni Daniilidou (saving match points in the second set) to make it to the semifinal where she faced hometown favorite Tamarine Tanasugarn and was beaten. Brémond's three previous matches had all been three-setters; by the time she was to face Tanasugarn she was worn out. Her run at this event boosted her rankings back into the top 50 at No. 43.
Bremond's last event for 2006 was the Bell Challenge in Quebec, Canada, where she was seeded 4th. She defeated American Jill Craybas in the first round, Greta Arn in the second, and Martina Sucha in the quarterfinal for her second semifinal in a row. She then lost to Olga Poutchkova in three sets. Following her run to the semifinals at this event she broke the top 40 for the first time and landed at her new career high ranking of No. 38.
At the start of the 2007 season Bremond played in the Mondial Australian Women's Hardcourts event defeating Iveta Benesova in the first round and losing to Tathiana Garbin in the second. She got out in the 2nd round at the Moorilla Hobart International also where she was beaten by Jie Zheng after her first round win over Michaella Krajicek. Her next tournament was a Grand Slam event; the Australian Open. She lost in the first round to Tamira Paszek. Her last tournament, the Toray Pan Pacific Open, brought her to a new career high ranking of No. 34 in the world after she defeated fellow Frenchwoman Marion Bartoli in the first round. She lost in the next round to Roberta Vinci.
While Bremond has never won a doubles title on the WTA Tour, she has made the semifinals of the Mixed Doubles tournament at Wimbledon of 2007 with Fabrice Santoro. |
