The defending champion, Serena Williams was forced to work hard against Aravane Rezai to enter into the second round of the tournament. She beats Aravene Rezai 6-3 3-6 6-1.
Serena said: ”It has been so hard. I never dreamt I’d be here right now. I just wanted to win at least one match here, seeing as I’m not playing doubles. It’s been a disaster year but I just kept praying. I love tennis and wanted to be able to play Wimbledon… Aravane’s a really good player. She has won huge tournaments before and has beaten Venus. I knew it wouldn’t be easy.”

Also on Tuesday at Wimbledon, this year’s champion in Rome (and the 2004 Wimbledon, 2006 US Open, and 2008 Australian Open champion), Maria Sharapova of Russia defeated Anna Chakvetadze 6-2, 6-1
Maria said: ”It was great to be back on Centre Court, considering that I didn’t play a warmup tournament. I felt like I had to be ready from the first point. I played against an opponent that’s been in the top 10 before [Anna is a former #5 in WTA singles]. Hasn’t had the best results this year. But you don’t quite know what to expect… I thought she played a really good match, and I really had to step it up. I thought I did a good job of that.”
