TOKYO, Japan 
Defending champion Caroline Wozniacki was down but never out of her opening match at the Toray Pan Pacific Open on Thursday, as the No.3 seed ran off six of the last seven games to defeat American Shelby Rogers, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4, winning her 50th match of 2017.

Down 3-0 in the final set, Wozniacki won 30 of the final 37 points to deny Rogers the upset, reach the last eight in Tokyo for the sixth straight year, and record her 50th match win of the season.

"I know she has powerful strokes and a big serve, so it definitely wasn't easy," Wozniacki said after the match.

"It was a tough match -- she played aggressive, and I'm just happy I managed to win in the end."

Angelique kerber win's over Shelby Rogers into third round of the Wimbledon 2017

LONDON, Great Britain 
She was down, but not out - and World No.1 Angelique Kerber will stay on her perch for at least one more match at the All-England Club.

The German rallied from 6-4, 4-2 down to quell the upset bid of an inspired Shelby Rogers in the third round of Wimbledon on Saturday, 4-6, 7-6(2), 6-4 to return to the second week for the third time in the past four years.

"I was down 2-4, and I think I had break point also against me 2-5," Kerber said. "It was tough to find my rhythm actually. She played very well from the first point. She was hitting the balls very hard. I was just trying to finding at the end my rhythm. In the second set, I was starting to feeling the ball better and better.

Kristina Mladenovic win's over Rogers into french open 2017

Kristina Mladenovic, No.13 seed, kept French hopes of a home champion alive as she emerged the victor in a thrillingly close match against American Shelby Rogers on Suzanne-Lenglen Court.

In the theatrical style she has made her trademark, Kristina Mladenovic, the darling of the home crowd, squeezed past the quietly defiant American Shelby Rogers in two hours and 46 minutes of tight and often scintillating tennis to reach the last 16. In doing so, she keeps alive her hopes of becoming the first Frenchwoman to lift the Coupe Suzanne-Lenglen since Mary Pierce in 2000.
The No.13 seed has two Roland-Garros titles to her name – the girls’ singles crown in 2009 and the women’s doubles title which she won last year with compatriot Caroline Garcia – but she was seeking to progress beyond the third round here for the first time. It seemed a modest aim considering she is also many commentators’ pick to emerge champion in this year of the Wide Open Women’s Draw.
Arriving with a career-high ranking of No.14 in the world, courtesy of a great run in reaching clay-court finals in Stuttgart and Madrid, “Kiki” showed tremendous mental resolution in holding back the solid, big-hitting game of the 24-year-old from Charleston, South Carolina - who was a quarter-finalist at Roland-Garros last year - as well as a forbidding front of black storm clouds.
The 7-5, 4-6, 8-6 score illustrated her propensity for playing on the thinnest possible line between triumph and disaster, between calm and storm, bold winners and wild error. The players had to report to court much earlier than expected following the shocking retirement of David Goffin in the first set of his meeting with Horacio Zaballos – and at one point left the court for no longer than five minutes when some rain appeared.
