Vera Zvonareva dispatched qualifier Anastasia Gasanova 6-3, 6-1.
Zvonareva repeatedly stymied Gasanova with superb anticipation and clutch serves, and after saving three break points to hold for 3-3 in the first set took firm control of the contest.
"I think the surface suits her really well," said Zvonareva of her opponent. "The ball doesn't bounce very high, it stays low, so it is not easy to go for the winners. If you're trying to go for too much, it's likely [you'll] make an unforced error. I was trying to make her move around the court as much as I could and then take any opportunity on the shorter balls."
