Top seed Justine Henin dodged the showers to beat Argentina's Jorgelina Cravero for the loss of just three games and then laughed off a suggestion she would be forced to quit the game in two years. The 25-year-old had heard of a report in a Belgian newspaper in which her doctor was quoted predicting the world number one's imminent retirement due to injuries. But she insisted: "I think that is a bit of a mistake in the paper. But, no, it is going to be four, five more years - three certainly depending on injuries, but not just two." Cravero made Henin fight for supremacy but after forcing the first break for 4-2, last year's runner-up seldom looked back. Four aces flew past qualifier Cravero, the world's number 117 who is having her best season to date. And Henin simply left her trailing with a succession of winners in the second set. Meanwhile, Serena Williams signalled her intent to regain the Wimbledon crown as the number seven seed brushed past Lourdes Dominguez-Lino of Spain in straight sets on Court Two. The so-called `Graveyard of Champions' never looked like claiming another famous scalp as the American stepped up her game following a slow start to wrap up a 7-5 6-0 victory despite a 90-minute stoppage for rain. Williams, 26, was victorious here in both 2002 and 2003, but has since suffered from a combination of lack of form and injury as she slipped down the rankings. In the day's other matches, Shahar Peer, the 16th seed from Israel, beat Thailand's Tamarine Tanasugarn 7-5 6-2, while Australian Alicia Molik knocked out Russian Anastasia Rodionova in straight sets, 6-3 6-2. On Court 14, Switzerland's Patty Schnyder, the 15th seed, had a marathon match against Camille Pin of France, eventually coming through 6-1 4-6 8-6. |
