In difficulty since her fine career at the Australian Open (quarter-finalist), Alizé Cornet regained the taste of victory on Monday for her entry into the Charleston tournament. Victorious in two sets of the local Alycia Parks, modest 150th in the world (6-0, 7-5), the seeded number 12 stops her current series with three eliminations in the first round, all on hard.
In the second round on the American ocher, the 34th in the world will face the Romanian Gariella Ruse (55th) or the American Hayley Baptiste (254th).
