Ivanovic Back to Quarterfinals at French Open
PARIS — Former champion Ana Ivanovic returned to the quarterfinals of the French Open for the first time since her triumph at Roland Garros seven years ago after beating ninth-seeded Russian Ekaterina Makarova 7-5, 3-6, 6-1 on Sunday.
Ivanovic will face 19th-seeded Elina Svitolina, who overcame strong resistance from local hope Alize Cornet to reach her first Grand Slam quarterfinal with a 6-2, 7-6 (9) win.
For the first time this year play was disrupted by rain, with both matches suspended for 2 hours, 40 minutes before midday, and players had to deal with gusts of wind after play resumed.
