Kimiko Date-Krumm beat Gisela Dulko in San Diego
Japan’s 40-year-old wonder woman Kimiko Date-Krumm beat newly-married Argentine Gisela Dulko 7-5, 6-0 in a post-honeymoon wake-up call to reach the second round of the San Diego Open.
Date-Krumm won the event in 1996 back in her first tennis life and just before she retired to eventually spend 11 years out of the game.
Her victory in just under 90 minutes with six breaks of the distracted Dulko on Tuesday got Date-Krumm off to a much more promising start at this edition after losing in qualifying rounds here a year ago.
She was joined in the second round by Japanese compatriot Ayumi Morita, a winner over Australian Jelena Dokic 6-1, 4-6, 7-5 and second-round opponent for Serbian fifth seed Ana Ivanovic.

G. DULKO/S. Stosur 6 4, 1 6, 6 3
Q. You said before the match that you probably weren’t the favorite. How did you manage to turn that around and beat her today?
GISELA DULKO: Well, I think I played really well in the beginning. I was trying to be very aggressive, and I did it very well.
You know, Sam is a very tough player, very powerful player, so if I wasn’t that aggressive, I think it was going to be really difficult for me to manage the points.
I think this was really key for me to start well, and then win the first set. And I think after I have a few ups and downs, and I was lucky to play very good tennis at the end of the match.
Q. Was becoming an aunt yesterday maybe giving you a special motivation going into this match?
GISELA DULKO: Well, yes. I don’t know how to say nephews were born yesterday, two, twins, so it was very special day. Yesterday night I was awake really late. You know, was very emotional, because I would love to be there, but I’m here.
And I tried to do my best today, and that’s why I did this towel for them.
Q. Two boys?
GISELA DULKO: No, one and one.
