Serena Williams
Serena Williams brushed aside
Belinda Bencic of Switzerland 6-2,
6-1 to open her defence of the
Madrid Open title on Sunday, while
Maria Sharapova beat Klara
Koukalova 6-1, 6-2 in the first round.
In the men’s tournament, Novak
Djokovic withdrew before the start of
the event because of a right wrist
injury that had already affected his
play at Monte Carlo last month.
“I did everything possible in order
to play in Madrid,” Djokovic said.
“But unfortunately my right arm
injury has flared up again.” The top-
ranked Williams won nine of 10
games during one stretch to take
control of her first match since
taking a month-long break.
