STRASBOURG, France -- Top-seeded Sloane Stephens of the United States and second-seeded Alize Cornet of France were knocked out in the first round of the Strasbourg International on Tuesday. Stephon Gilmore Patriots Jersey . Julia Goerges of Germany upset wild-card entry Stephens 6-3, 6-2, while Camila Giorgi of Italy overcame defending champion Cornet 6-4, 1-6, 6-3. Goerges, a semifinalist at the Pattaya Open in Thailand in February, did not face a break point. She broke for a 5-3 lead in the first set. Stephens dropped serve in the first and seventh games of the final set. Cornet beat Giorgi in the Katowice Open final last month in Poland. But the Italian got her revenge Tuesday despite making nine double faults. Andrea Petkovic of Germany, Peng Shuai of China and Croatian qualifier Mirjana Lucic-Baroni moved into the second round. The fourth-seeded Petkovic beat French wild-card entry Pauline Parmentier 6-3, 6-4, the seventh-seeded Peng defeated Australian qualifier Ashleigh Barty 7-5, 7-5, and Lucic-Baroni stunned sixth-seeded Bojana Jovanovski of Serbia 6-4, 6-0. Petkovic led 5-0 in the opening set against Parmentier and 3-0 in the second. Lucic-Baroni offset seven double faults by saving all four break points she faced against Jovanovski. American duo Christina McHale and Lauren Davis, Spanish qualifier Silvia Soler-Espinosa and Monica Puig of Puerto Rico also advanced. McHale cruised past Alexandra Cadantu of Romania 6-1, 6-2, Davis dismissed Belarusian qualifier Olga Govortsova 6-2, 6-4, Puig edged Johanna Larsson of Sweden 7-5, 7-6 (5), and Soler-Espinosa beat Stefanie Voegele of Switzerland 6-0, 7-6 (5) for the first time in five matches. Sony Michel Patriots Jersey . INJURIES - Cardinals 1B Matt Adams has been put on the DL with calf tightness, resulting in some lineup shifting, with Allen Craig moving from right field to first base, so that the Cardinals could bring up top prospect Oscar Taveras, who was the No. Steve Grogan Jersey . Not that Durant cared. The only streak he cares about is still intact. http://www.shoptheofficialpatriots.com/Elite-Irving-Fryar-Patriots-Jersey/ . I wondered how NHL coaches would feel about a playoff schedule that allowed them to open a best-of-seven series on the road, which many claim to favour, yet still gave them the precious home-ice edge for a seventh game.WINNIPEG - As training camp draws to a close with a number of players nursing minor injuries, Winnipeg Jets coach Paul Maurice says it could affect how many more they send back to the minors.The Jets dispatched five more Wednesday to their AHL farm team but Maurice could be a little more cautions as camp winds down.That may have an effect, he said Wednesday of his moderately full sick bay. Well get to our 23 plus injured guys . . . So if that list doesnt shrink were going to have more bodies here.Forwards John Albert, Carl Kilngberg and JC Lipon were dispatched to the St. Johns IceCaps Wednesday, along with defenceman Julien Brouillette and goaltender Connor Hellebuyck. Brouillette and Klingberg have to clear waivers.After their departure, the Jets still had 32 players on their camp roster, although some werent skating.Blake Wheeler didnt skate after getting hit by a puck Tuesday night and Dustin Byfuglien remained out as well, along with forwards Eric ODell and TJ Galiardi. Other players who got a day off included Toby Enstrom, Bryan Little and Patrice Cormier.Maurice says it will be tough for Byfuglien to play a lot of minutes in the top six when the season starts if he doesnt return soon. He hasnt played in more than a week.Injuries have given a lot of other players time to show their stuff.Its turned out to be a real good thing for other players getting an opportunity, so thats the positive in it, Maurice said. Most of these (veteran) guys have got enough experience that weve got three days of practice before that opener that we can get it right. New England Patriots Jerseys. .That tryout continues for some when the Jets visit Calgary Thursday night.On Winnipegs forward lines, hopeful Nic Petan will line up with captain Andrew Ladd and Michael Frolik, Evander Kane and Mark Scheifele will get 2014 draft pick Nik Ehlers, and Mathieu Perreault and Matt Halischuk will get Adam Lowry, a rookie who continues to look more and more at home in the NHL.Perreault, who replaced Olli Jokinen in the Jets lineup, says he has good chemistry with Frolik and Lowry.He works really hard, hes a very smart guy, he said of Frolik. Responsible defensively, which is always fun to have on your line. Hes a guy that can also play offence, he does it all.And Lowry, with only one season in the AHL under his skates, is the kind of big linemate Perreault says he has worked well with in the past.Hes a big kid, hes a smart player as well, he said of the six-foot-five forward, who plays centre and wing.Ladd, meanwhile, said he wasnt too worried that both Little and Byfuglien have been sidelined.Better to take care of that stuff right now rather than having it going on during the year. Sometimes its smart to stay off.Hes been off a little as well but said hes good to go now and hopes to play both of the last exhibition games.We want to start hitting our stride. Weve had a few games now to get that rust out and get our systems down pat a little more and now its time to get sharp and to get ready for the regular season. ' ' '
