[R2] (14) Sania Mirza (IND,40) bt Shenay Perry (USA,92) 75 67(7) 63

Very good win against big server Perry, who served 16 aces ... But Sania also had 69% first serves in ... This win will definetly give her more confidence on her ability of handling big server and playing accordingly.

In both matches she won third set convincingly ... That shows Sania learning to change her plan according her opponents game in the match ... Its really good sign ... Now she is having big opportunity to reach QF.
