 MOSCOW (AP) - Defending champion Jelena Jankovic advanced to the second round of the Kremlin Cup on Tuesday by defeating Yaroslava Shvedova 6-4, 5-7, 6-1.
Wayne Odesnik of the United States rallied to upset second-seeded Victor Hanescu of Romania 5-7, 7-5, 6-4.
Jankovic won the first set after Shvedova hit into the net twice to give her the 10th game. Shvedova, who eliminated Jankovic in the second round of the U.S. Open in September, had an early break in the second before the Serb evened it at 4-4. Shvedova broke again for a 6-5 lead before serving for the set.
