Unseeded, No. 45 ranked Gisela Dulko from Argentina embarrassed No. 10 seed, Victoria Azarenka of Belarus, 6-1, 6-2, in the 1st round of the French Open being played in Paris, France.
The commentators thought Victoria’s play was so bad, they wondered why she even showed up on the court. Gisela had 14 winners and 18 unforced errors, while Victoria hit 14 winners but with 25 unforced errors. Gisela converted 5 of 11 break points against Victoria; Victoria scored on only 1 of 4 break points she held against Gisela.
One other seed has bitten the dust in Paris, No. 20 Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez of Spain, who lost to unseeded No. 98 ranked Akgul Amanmuradova of Uzbekistan in straight sets, 2-6, 4-6.
