Three women at this tournament will be remembered as champions of struggle against all odds long after they stop playing: Petra Kvitova, Victoria Azarenka and Serena Williams – but only one is still standing after three days.
Williams, the game’s newest mother, handily beat the world No 135, Viktoriya Tomova, 6-1, 6-4 in 66 minutes on Wednesday and moves on in the draw after the departure of the other two, who left with something between a bang and a whimper.
