Tuesday Women's Summary
Singles - Quarterfinal: (2) Maria Sharapova def. (8)
Li Na 6-3 6-0
Apparently the bad Li Na of last fall is back.... Still,
she has at least a shot at moving up to #7. It's
progress. Maria Sharapova will not move above #2 this
week, but she now has more than a 500 point lead on
Petra Kvitova. That's a lot of insurance points....
Singles - Quarterfinal: (6) Caroline Wozniacki def. (10)
Serena Williams 6-4 6-4
The good news for Serena Williams is, she's back in the
Top Ten. But #10 is as high as she will go. She was
really struggling here, and couldn't seem to do much of
anything against Caroline Wozniacki's serve until very
late in the match, by which time it was too late. If
Wozniacki can win her next match, she will return to the
Top Five.
Doubles - Second Round: (5) Kirilenko/Petrova def.
Kuznetsova/Zvonareva 6-1 7-5
Kirilenko/Petrova are a round behind most of the rest of
the field, but they're the top team left; this looks
like a big opportunity.
Doubles - Quarterfinal: (6) Errani/Vinci def. Makarova/Zheng
6-3 6-3
Errani/Vinci are the other serious contenders here. They
tend to prefer smaller events, though.
