Jelena Jankovic Progressed to the 2nd Round of Stuttgart WTA Tournament

Former world no. 1 Jelena Jankovic stormed past Dominika Cibulkova from Slovakia 6-1, 6-1 in the first round match of Stuttgart WTA tournament and made it to the second round. Jelena Jankovic was happy with the easy win over Dominika as she said that she had expected a tough match, considering Dominika’s previous performances against Jelena. Well, it was a one-sided match and given Jelena Jankovic’s recent poor run on the court, it was a very important win for the Serbian who is the defending champion in the tournament. Jankovic will take on Sabine Lisicki from Germany in the second round. Lisicki clinched her second round berth, having defeated Patty Schnyder 6-4, 6-3 in the first round.
