Mixed Luck For Local Heroes in Strasbourg – Gallery

Wednesday at the Internationaux de Strasbourg was all about the local favorites as three French players were in second-round action, hoping to make the round of the last eight.

The first of the French girls to make her center-court appearance on Wednesday was Alize Cornet and the French #1 was met by an enthusiastic crowd that was willing to cheer her on into the quarter-finals.

Unfortunately for the local fans, Elena Vesnina, her opponent on the other side of the net, had a different plan for the day.
