Interesting that Safina is mentioned before she tests out her back and play. Does this mean they know something we don't know? I am assuming he would have a back-up ready. I would be happy if Safina would be well enough to play Fed cup after a warm-up and major in Australia.
I just read on Tennis.com that someone in the Sharapova camp said it was only likely that Sharapova would play.Look under "Headlines" on the right side of the site of Tennis.com
The official announcement was that Sharapova has "committed" to play. Of course, by February, anything can happen. Three of the four have ongoing injury issues.
