The first ladies' seed to exit The Championships today was No.22 ShaharPeer. She was a set up against Russian left-hander Ksenia Pervak and itseemed as though the owner of five WTA titles would go on to defeat herfirst round opponent. However, the 20-year-old Russian had other plans,earning the crucial break in the ninth game and serving it out to makeit one set all. The final set came down to just one break point,which went the way of Pervak who was very strong behind her serves. Sheforced Peer into making 50 unforced errors throughout the match andthat was ultimately the Israeli's undoing. 0 ^* c!

Withthe experience of winning three WTA titles to draw upon, Wickmayerraised her game in the second set and only committed three unforcederrors.

Svetlana Kuznetsova defeated Zhang Shuai ofChina 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 for a place in the second round. It was the secondtime in a Grand Slam the players have met in the first round and againit was the Russian who prevailed. But this time Kuznetsova was forcedto fight back from a set down and then keep her focus in the final setto come away with a hard-earned win.
