Women's Singles 2nd round: 伊達公子 JPN def. 2-Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova RUS 62 61 老女人輕鬆擊敗柳橙娃！(去年伊達在首爾打敗的首位種子也是俄羅斯人:p) 在這場比賽中，老女人五度成功破發，而在自己的發球局中，雖曾經面臨六個破發點，但全部都成功保住。八強對手是Szavay。 ※ 引述《erickin (阿更)》之銘言： : WTA官網在伊達取得首爾第一輪勝利後發出的新聞。 : 去年在這邊奪冠成為史上第二老奪得巡迴賽單打冠軍的她， : 如果今年能再次封后的話，就會破金恩夫人的紀錄了。 : 另外伊達說她今年目標是把年終排名保持在前五十。 : SEOUL, South Korea - A year ago, Kimiko Date Krumm hit the big time in her : comeback, capturing her eighth Sony Ericsson WTA Tour title here at the : Hansol Korea Open. On Wednesday she kept that momentum going, winning her : first round match against fellow Japanese Junri Namigata, 62 75. : Date Krumm, who won this title at age 38 last year, the second-oldest player : ever to win a Tour title, started strongly, cruising through the first set : and twice going up a break in the second set; Namigata broke back and : eventually held for 5-4 but Date Krumm won 12 of the last 15 points to close : it out. : "This is a lucky place for me that brought me another title last year, and I : have lots of good memories," Date Krumm said. "I felt a lot of pressure : coming here as defending champion, so I try to keep thinking I'm just the : challenger." : Date Krumm was 38 years, 11 months and 30 days when she won here last year, : second only to Billie Jean King, who won Birmingham in 1983 at 39 years, 7 : months and 23 days. Date Krumm is now older than that, meaning should she win : another title on the Tour, she would break that record. : "I have a lot of tournaments coming up and my goal this season is to stay in : the Top 50," said Date Krumm, who has cracked the Top 50 since her comeback, : but is just a bit down at No.51 this week. "I already made it to the Top 50, : but I want to keep it. I want to be in the Top 50 on the season-ending : rankings." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 182.93.59.71
