WTA - 's-Hertogenbosch (Mon): Top 2 Seeds Stosur & Errani Upset
World No. 8 Marion Bartoli, World No. 10 Angelique Kerber, World No. 13 Sabine Lisicki, World No. 16 Dominika Cibulkova and former World No. 1 Jelena Jankovic lead the player field for the Mercury Insurance Open presented by Tri-City Medical Center, a Premier WTA tennis tournament which is also part of the summer’s Emirates Airline US Open Series.
Samantha Stosur will hit the former, knocking Serena Williams down to #6; Dominika Cibulkova will not hit the latter, meaning that Li Na will probably cling to the #10 spot. Cibulkova will be #11.
Her kick serves and huge topspin forehands made even more lethal on the clay of Court Philippe Chatrier, Sam Stosur stormed into the semifinals of the French Open on a sunny Tuesday afternoon, hanging on to take the first set then rolling past Dominika Cibulkova for a 64 61 win.
ITF Junior World Champion Irina Khromacheva was the first notable seed to exit Junior Roland Garros when she lost on the opening day to German qualifier Antonia Lottner.

One more win and Angelique Kerber could rise as high as #7.
