Dementieva tested by Zvonoreva
The All-Russian match between Elena Dementieva and Vera Zvonoreva lived up to most people's expectations. There were lots of service breaks throughout the 1st set. But the second serve was all about holding serve, and Dementieva never faced a break point. Dementieva won 7-5 6-3.

The first set was full of errors from both players but it was evident in the entire match that it was Dementieva who was trying to take control. Dementieva 35 winners compared to Zvonoreva's 11.

It's really great to see that Elena hasn't dropped a set yet and is entering the second week as fresh as the other top players. Zvonoreva tested her a bit and Elena must be feeling confident that she beat Vera in straight sets. Her serve has really improved and she haven't served up more than 9 double faults a match during the tournament. The second serve is still a bit weak but if she gets enough 1st serves in, she converts. Really great showing Elena! Good luck on your next match.

Davai Elena!
