Serena Williams opened her campaign at Beijing with comfortable win over
Russian Elena Vesnina 6 – 4 6 – 2.
The first set was a close one and Williams
dropped her serve twice, but at 4 – 4 she got a decisive break and served for
the first set with authority.

set was all about Serena, not facing a single break point and only losing 5
points on serve. The American broke two times Vesnina's serve to get a place in the second round.
In the next
