Errani turns it around in New Haven

Through an odd twist of fate, Sara Errani--who became a lucky loser and entered the main draw--had to play Mallory Cecil in the first round of Pilot Pen Tennis. Cecil, the wild card ranked number 602 in the world, is the player who beat Errani in the final round of qualifying. This time, Errani was victorious, but not easily. She won the match 6-2, 4-6, 7-6, with a decisive, 7-1 score in the tiebreak.

Cecil, who is from South Carolina, won her first pro challenger, the 10k Palmetto Pro Open, in June.
