Jelena still in entry lists. But she has supposedly withdrawn.

[tall_one]

i wonder how Hingis will do

[babolatpro880]

Well, supposedly Martina is only coming back for this one tournament as a charity event. Although, if she tears through the draw, I think that might change....

[Catriel]

Tennis has changed too much since Martina played her last set....

[Laury]

Martina won first match 6-1
Had anybody seen the match, or highlights? Do you think she´ll play again?

[babolatpro880]

I read the article on wtatour.com. Apparently, Weingartner hit 19 unforced errors in the first set(keep in mind, you only need to win 24 points to win a set), and "frequently missed serves beyond the baseline." So it apparently wasn't that Martina played well. Martina said she didn't plan on playing any other WTA sanctioned tournaments "in the near future."
