Roberta Vinci got an early first set 6-4 but Cornet showed
her class to show improvement in the second and third set to win by 2 sets to 1

round and it did look like Vinci was running out of energy the mo

6 Winner
Giles Simon found it easy to win this first round match as
he beat fellow Frenchman Lucas Poucelle in 3 straight sets as this was a very
easy first round and found it so easy that you cannot be completely sure how
well that he is going to do in the second round.
Round 1
Kaia Kanepi (EST)
2 4
Maria Sharapova (RUS)

Maria Sharapova rocketed into the second round and showed

Round 1

This was the match of the big American females asking the

belongs to youth as Slone Stevens won in straight sets but it was not as simple
as it seems

6 4 3 7 2
Kyle Edmond found it difficult to go get through to the second
