After the first day of the 2013 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships saw upsets of Sloane Stephens and Laura Robson, ordered was restored by Petra Kvitova and Caroline Wozniacki, who both advanced in straight sets. With Victoria Azarenka withdrawing from the tournament with an injury, it looks like Serena Williams’ tournament to win or lose. But the draw is not easy. Serena takes on Marion Bartoli next. Bartoli has beaten her before. Then there is a potential quarterfinal against Wozniacki, who beat Serena last year. Then there is a possible semifinal against Kvitova. Of course, Petra has her hands full next round with Ana Ivanovic. Still, it’s good to see Petra and Caro get off to quick starts.
