At this Stage

Three weeks is a short memory in tennis, but Ekaterina Alexandrova's was in perfect working order: beaten by Panna Udvardy on grass at 's-Hertogenbosch just three weeks earlier, the 18th seed returned the favour 6-4 6-2 in 78 minutes. This time the serve held up — 78 percent of first-serve points won, six of seven break points saved — and though the two traded five aces apiece, the Hungarian never found the foothold she had in the Netherlands. Revenge administered, Alexandrova advanced to a second-round meeting with Lanlana Tararudee, which she would settle by the same score twice over, 7-5 7-5.
