First-round play at the 2016 Brisbane International continued on Monday as the first WTA Premier tournament of the new year continues to pick up pace after Sunday’s start into the new season!
Monday didn’t turn out to be a very promising day for Australia’s youngsters as local favorites Ajla Tomljanovic & Priscilla Hon both lost their opening round matches. Each starting with a wild-card, Tomljanovic lost her first-round encounter against Carla Suarez-Navarro in a straightforward fashion, hampered by a injury that will most likely cause the Croatia-born Aussie to miss out on playing Sydney.
