2010 Australian Open Round 1 Results: Dinara Safina Gets Past Magdalena Rybarikova in Straight Sets to Advance

Dinara Safina got her 2010 Australian Open off to a good start, getting past Magdalena Rybarikova in straight sets 6-4, 6-4 to move into the second round and keep her sights on her first Grand Slam singles title.

Safina managed to take the match based largely on the points she won off her first serve and her ability to handle Rybarikova’s serve. Safina won 74% of her first offerings to overcome nine double-faults and 39 unforced errors.

Safina has reached the finals of the French Open the last two years but fell to Ana Ivanovic in 2008 and then Svetlana Kuznetsova last year. In 2009 she reached the finals at the Australian Open but again fell, this time to Serena Williams. Despite never winning a Grand Slam singles title Safina reached the number one in the rankings on April 27, 2009 and is currently ranked second in the world.
