Kenin Returns With a Win
Playing for the first time since her second round exit at the Wimbledon last year, 2020 Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin made a winning return at the Adelaide International on Tuesday.
The World No. 12, who was kept out by a foot injury after the Wimbledon and returned a positive COVID-19 test before the U.S. Open, had a pre-mature end to the 2021 season, but made a winning start in 2022, defeating Italy’s Lucia Bronzetti in the first round.
The match was a close one, with the first set witnessing five breaks of serve. Bronzetti fought back from a break down twice in the first 10 games. But the American got a third break in the 11th game and then held on to serve out the first set.
In the second, Kenin raced to a 5-2 lead with two breaks of serve, but the Italian refused to surrender, fighting back to draw level at 5-5. She saved four match points in the 10th game to stay in the contest, but yet again the American had the last laugh, getting another break in the 11th game and then serving out the match for a 7-5, 7-5 win in an hour and 44 minutes.
A five-time tour-level champion, the 23-year-old is playing for the second time in Adelaide. She was beaten in the second round in 2020. Can she make the quarterfinals this time?

Tomljanovic Battles Past Watson
Australia’s Ajla Tomljanovic began her Adelaide campaign with a straight sets win over Britain’s Heather Watson.
The 28-year-old found herself 0-2 down in the first set, but got the break back immediately in the third game and then another later in the set to go up 5-4, before serving out the set without any fuss. The second set was even closer with both players exchanging a break in the first 12 games. Tomljanovic took the hard-fought tiebreak to seal the match 6-4, 7-6 (7-5) in an hour and 56 minutes.
Yet to win a tour-level title, Tomljanovic, a four-time runner-up, made her Grand Slam quarterfinal debut at Wimbledon last year. She is playing in the WTA 500 in Adelaide for the second time, and is yet to go beyond the second round.
Can the World No. 45 upset the sixth seed on Wednesday?
