Ana Ivanovic played her second round match today in the French open against Thai experienced player Tamarine Tanasugarn and it was an easy victory for Ivanovic with the final score 6-1 6-2 with a total play time of 65 minutes, short matches normally indicate one player is vastly superior to the other. 4 tennis moment photos featured below taken from the event featuring Ana Ivanovic, Dinara Safina, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova.

Ivanovic is currently ranked 8th in the world and is the previous winner of the French open in 2008. Beginning of the tennis season has not been great for her with a lack of form robbing her of any chance to reach the final stages of tournaments but her form seems to be returning and at a critical point in the season with Grand Slam season now in full swing.

Other top names have predictably made it through to the third round, Dinara Safina World no1 along World no2  Serena Williams (photo above) and big name star Maria Sharapova who has made a comeback after some time off suffering from a shoulder injury, bandages still visible below,  and its good to see her back to add even more glamour to the game, will she hit top form for wimbledon remains to be seen!

On a different note we are aware of the UEFA football match, if Man U win, news will be here from a WAG and UK perspective!
