Sabine Lisicki

Playing in her first tournament since winning the title in Charleston, Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy student, Sabine Lisicki, picked up right where she left off. The 19-year old German (playing in front of her home fans) defeated world #20 Patty Schnyder 6-4, 6-3 today in the fist round of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart. She comes into the tournament ranked a career high of #42 in the world and sporting a seven-match winning streak. Lisicki will face Jelena Jankovic for the first time in her career in the second round after Jankovic moved past Dominika Cibulkova 6-1, 6-1.

Good luck to Sabine in the next round!
