At all Sony Ericsson WTA Tour events, tennis is not the only activity for the players. They also participate in many community programs and promotional activities to help raise awareness of the tournament and the game. In January this year, the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour began a new initiative called ACES Race 2007, rewarding those players that go above and beyond to promote tennis on and off the court. Points are awarded to each off-court promotional activity players take part in - the bigger the commitment, the more points awarded to each player. Kim Clijsters, one of the Tour's most popular and giving stars, was the early leader in the ACES Race, but after this week, the lead has changed to Serbians Ana Ivanovic and Jelena Jankovic. Both Ivanovic and Jankovic spent their off-court time doing individual media interviews, visiting sponsors and experiencing traditional Japanese culture, which included a trip to a sumo wrestling practice. Visit the Sony Ericsson Photo Gallery for images of these activities. Jankovic consistently dedicates her time to off-court activities and continued to accrue ACES Race points this week, adding to points earned in Australia. ACES Race 2007 standings as of February 4 1. Ana Ivanovic - 85 1. Jelena Jankovic - 85 3. Kim Clijsters - 75 4. Martina Hingis - 60 5. Samantha Stosur - 55 6. Maria Sharapova - 45 7. Amelie Mauresmo - 40 8. Elena Dementieva - 35 9.
