Description

Dinara Mubinovna Safina (Russian: Динара Мубиновна Сафина, pronounced ⓘ; Tatar: Динара Мөбин кызы Сафина, romanized: Dinara Mӧbin kızı Safina; born April 27, 1986) is a Russian former world No. 1 tennis player. Safina was runner-up in singles at the 2008 French Open, 2009 Australian Open, and the 2009 French Open. She had even greater success at major events in doubles, winning the 2007 US Open with Nathalie Dechy. She also won the Olympic silver medal in women's singles at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Safina officially retired in 2014 due to a long-term back injury. She is also the younger sister of former world No. 1 men's player Marat Safin; the brother–sister pair are the first to both achieve the No. 1 singles rankings.
