Jelena Dokić (Serbian Cyrillic: Јелена Докић) (pronounced roughly YELL-en-a DO-kich) (born April 12, 1983) is a female professional tennis player who has played for both Australia and Serbia and Montenegro (FR Yugoslavia prior to February 2003), and currently plays for Australia. Her career-high ranking is No. 4 (on August 19 2002) while she was playing for Serbia, but after several family issues, particularly from her father's side, she has slowly slipped down the rankings and she currently doesn't hold a WTA ranking whatsoever.
The high points of Dokic's career include beating No. 1 ranked players Martina Hingis in the first round of Wimbledon in 1999 and Kim Clijsters (also ranked No.1 at the time) at the 2003 Zürich Open as well as Venus Williams in Rome 2000. She also reached the Wimbledon semi-finals in 2000, and lost the bronze medal playoff at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia.
