Sania loses in DFS Classic

NDTV: "Sania Mirza has been knocked out in the 2nd round of the DFS classic tournament in Birmingham. The Indian ranked 75th in the world lost in straight sets 6-1, 7-5 to Jelena Jankovia the third seed. Jankovic had also beaten Sania in the Dubai Open earlier this year.

However, unlike what the score line suggested, Sania did have chances but failed to convert as many as three break points. But the 2nd round loss means Sania will be very short of match practice ahead of Wimbledon. "
