PROFILE
Morariu retired after the 2007 U.S. Open ... After a strong start to 2001, Morariu was diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia. After undergoing extensive chemotherapy treatment and winning, she made a return to competition at San Diego in the summer of 2002 ... "Battling leukemia helped me as a person. I was given new life. Of course it was unfortunate I had to go through it, as well as my injuries, as they didn't allow me to realize my full potential. But I wouldn't trade in being sick and fighting that for anything in the world."
