Good news from Vera Zvonareva as the Russian is back to practice courts after a 18 months long hiatus.
The Russian is recovering from her injury to the hip and shoulder and she is ready to be back to professional tennis as she did quit in the 2012 Olympics after losing to Serena Williams in the 3rd round.
Following the WTA rules, since Vera has been out for more than 6 months her rank will be protected for the next season.
