CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Canadian Eugenie Bouchard wont have to go through defending champion Serena Williams to win the Family Circle Cup. The Montreal native needed only 58 minutes to defeat dispatched qualilfier Alla Kudryavtseva of Russia in straight sets, 6-2, 6-0 on Tuesday to advance to the third round. Number-1 seed and two-time defending champion Williams, however, was ousted from the tournament, shocked 6-4, 6-4 by Jana Cepelova of Slovakia in the second round. "Im really just dead. I need some weeks off where I dont think about tennis and kind of regroup," Williams said after the match. "Ive had a long couple of years, and Im really a little fatigued." Williams was looking for her second straight title and her third this year after winning a record seventh Sony Open last weekend. But with only 18 minutes gone in the match, she was down 0-5 on the green clay at the Family Circle Tennis Center. Williams rallied, winning four straight games surrendering only six points and it looked like Cepelovas lead would be short-lived. But the 20-year-old Cepelova came back and, holding serve in the final game, was able to win the set. Williams said later she feels emotionally and physically spent. "Definitely a little bit of both. But again, I think Jana played really well for her today," she said. "The good thing is I know I can play a lot better. So its always really positive for me." Cepelovas run out to a quick lead silenced the crowd, which was in the defending champions corner "I have 5-0 and I was a little bit nervous, but I did it," said Cepelova, ranked 78th in world. "You know, you play against No. 1 player and you never know. It was a tough situation for me, but Im really happy that I keep the set." Williams sister, Venus, also struggled on Tuesday, but edged Barbora Zahlavova Strycova 6-3, 0-6, 7-5. "Ive actually been pretty sick lately -- Ive been having like a bug," Venus Williams she said after the match that lasted 2 hours, 15 minutes. "You just have to play your way into the week and just continue to feel better." Venus Williams, a seven-time Grand Slam champion has battled injuries and Sjogrens syndrome, a fatigue-causing autoimmune disease, during the past two years. "I havent gotten rid of it. I wish I could have. Unfortunately it just clings to me," Williams said. "Ive just learned to handle it mentally and also I try to do things all the time, just always going for optimal health." Williams seemed in control of the match after she won the first set, surrendering only two points in her last two service games. But the 56th-ranked Zahlavova Strycova rattled off seven straight games to shut out the 28th-ranked Williams in the second set and go up 1-0 in the third. Williams rallied for a 5-4 lead in the third set, but Zahlavova Strycova fought off four match points to tie it at 5-all. Williams then earned a break in the next game -- helped by a final point double-fault -- and held at love to win the match. Williams staved off what could have been her earliest exit at the Family Circle. Shes making her seventh appearance at the tournament she won a decade ago. Williams, who won the Dubai title this year, said she didnt get down on herself after dropping the second set. "My gosh, if you are careful and you dont play almost perfectly, every single player is so talented out here that you can drop a set or the match," Williams said. "So its stay focused, really believing in yourself and taking some chances and making your shots."

The Bild newspaper reported Wednesday -- without citing any sources -- that Schumacher had developed pneumonia, but Sabine Kehms emailed statement Thursday made no mention of that. "As often in such situations no day is like the next," Kehm said, adding that Schumachers family does not wish to disclose medical details in order to protect Schumachers privacy. "We will continue to communicate any decisive new information on Michaels health state. We are aware that the wake-up phase can take a long time. "The family continues to strongly believe in Michaels recovery. ... The important thing is not the speed of the recovery but that Michaels healing process progresses in a continuous and ccontrolled way," Kehm said.dddddddddddd Schumachers doctors started waking up the German driver one month after his crash in the French resort of Meribel. The 45-year-old Schumacher suffered serious head injuries Dec. 29 when he fell and hit the right side of his head on a rock. The German has been treated in the Grenoble University Hospital since then. His condition has stabilized following surgery after initially being described as critical. Experts have said it will likely be months before Schumachers prognosis becomes clear -- and that lasting brain damage is a possibility. Schumacher earned universal acclaim for his uncommon and sometimes ruthless driving talent, which led to a record 91 race wins. He retired from Formula One in 2012 after garnering an unmatched seven world titles. His accident happened on a family vacation in the Alps as Schumacher was skiing with his 14-year-old son. cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys ' ' '
