Maria Sharapova's first-round match with Bethanie Mattek-Sands of the United States was postponed by rain again Wednesday at the Aegon Classic.
But unlike Tuesday, there was 25 minutes of play before the rains struck with Sharapova leading 4-0 in the first set.
The winner will play Alla Kudryavtseva, who beat American Vania King 6-1, 6-2.
Sharapova served well, using a fuller arm action again after a slew of double-faults last year following shoulder surgery. During the match, Mattek-Sands received six minutes of treatment on a thigh.
