Day one in the books

Twelve women's qualifying matches were completed not counting American Mallory Cecil receiving a walkover because Barbora Zahlavova Strycova is still alive in doubles in the Mason, Ohio tournament.

American Alexa Glatch was leading Russia's Galina Voskoboeva 7-5, 4-4 when the match was suspended. That match will be completed Saturday while the Nuria Llagostera Vives/Marie-Eve Pelletier match, which never started, was also pushed to Saturday.

Results went pretty much according to form with Zahlovova Strycova, the No. 5 seed, and sixth seeded Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova the only seeds to fall.

Men's qualifying will begin on Saturday. The draw will come out later this evening.
