Global Chick here and reporting and still really suffering from the jetlag. It still stalks like a lion who hasn’t had a snack in quite a long while (rather like a good night’s sleep!). The tennis players feel it too.

On Thursday, at the South Seas Island Resort Women’s Pro Classic $50,000 USTA Pro Circuit Event, several of the top seeded players were upset in the Round of 16 Singles Play including Americans Grace Min (seeded #1) who lost in three close sets to fellow American Louisa Chirico 6-7 (6), 7-5, 5-7 and Irina Falconi who fell to Jennifer Brady of the U.S. 4-6, 4-6.
Seeds had it sweet with run of victories for favored players with No. 1 Serena Williams leading off with a defeat of Tsvetana Pironkova 6-2, 6-3, It was a similar outcome for second seed Simona Halep, whose game has gone off the boil since her surprise French Open final. The Romanian won her second-round contest over Zhu Lin of China 7-5 6-4.
Two familiar foes with a long history will meet in the Red Rock Open Pro singles final on Sunday, as American Madison Brengle will take on Michelle Larcher De Brito of Portugal. Brengle, the No. 4 seed from Dover, Del., ended qualifier Kateryna Bondarenko’s run of six consecutive wins in Las Vegas in a powerful 6-4, 6-2 semifinal victory in the USTA Women’s $50,000 Pro Circuit event taking place at the Red Rock Country Club.
Alize Cornet nailed her third win this season over Serena Williams as the American top seed quit with viral illness during her opening second-round match while holding a 6-5 lead. The last to take down Williams three times in the same year was Justin Henin in 2007. Williams said later she felt poorly in a match which was past of a run of upset losses by seeds at the new event.
Caroline Wozniacki briefly built a 3-1 lead in the second set. That was the only part of the match to really seem competitive. Otherwise, Ana Ivanovic was in almost complete charge. It took her an hour and 39 minutes to win her fourth title of the season, following Auckland, Monterrey, and Birmingham.
