ROGERS CUP (Toronto, Canada, hard, WTA Tier I)
==========
Qualifying
----------
María Sánchez Lorenzo - nice Selesian qualifier:
1q + Els Callens, 6-7 (6/8) 6-3 6-4
2q + Antonella Serra Zanetti, 3-6 6-3 6-3
-----------
First round
-----------
Common theme - Selesianity v beauty:
+ Marion Bartoli d. Maria Kirilenko, 6-4 3-0 retired
- María Sánchez Lorenzo [Q] lt. FLAVIA PENNETTA [14], 6-4 7-5
Maria retired with "reaggravated left-knee pain" - a real shame that
such a mouthwatering match should be marred by injury. I thought
that Marion would overpower Maria anyway, although I believe Maria
has more innate talent than Marion.
------------
Second round
------------
- Marion Bartoli lt. Ana Ivanovic, 4-6 7-6 (7/5) 7-6 (7/3)
A tough loss for Marion (she cried at the end), but very well fought
after Ana led 4-0 in the second and 3-0 in the third!
