Kaieteur News – The Telegraph – Sloane Stephens made a spectacular return to grass as she knocked out two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova in the first round.
The American triumphed 6-3, 6-4 over the 10th seed in an enthralling battle on Centre Court, with the roof open after the wet weather from earlier in the day had disappeared.
It was the 28-year-old’s first appearance on grass since a third-round defeat to Johanna Konta in SW9 two years ago, but the former US Open champion quickly hit her stride and never looked back.
Kvitova had been forced to pull out of her second-round match at the French Open last month after suffering a freak ankle injury during her media duties. The Czech fell as she left a broadcast interview and twisted her ankle.
While she did not appear hampered by any injury, Kvitova failed to hit any rhythm during the one hour and 17 minutes defeat.
