Justine Henin and Serena Williams made comfortable starts with straight-sets wins in round two of the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami. Top-seeded Henin beat Germany’s Angelique Kerber 6-4 6-2, while eighth-seeded Williams defeated Romania’s Edina Gallovits 6-1 6-2.
Today’s match in Miami was Henin’s first since the end of February when she was upset by Francesca Schiavone in Dubai quarterfinals, the tournament Henin had never been defeated at before. Henin made the one-month break in order to rest her knee and train properly.
