The return to the circuit of Petra Kvitova was celebrated in style after 17 months off the courts. Since becoming a mother, the Czech made her debut at the WTA in Austin, but victory eluded her. After taking the first set, Jodie Burrage turned the match around to win 3-6 6-4 6-4. Bad luck for the Czech at 4-all in the third set, as two consecutive double faults made her lose focus. Despite the defeat, Kvitova will leave with good feelings and experience to gain momentum.
