Sania Mirza shocked fifth seed Flavia Pennetta 6-4, 6-3 to advance to the second round of the Ordina Open here on Monday.

There was good news for India in the men’s section as well, with Rohan Bopanna advancing to the second round of the Wimbledon warm-up event on grass.

He posted a 6-7(8), 7-6(2), 6-4 win over former Roland Garros finalist Martin Verkerk.

Sania broke Pennetta, who is World No. 23, four times in the first set and dropped her serve thrice. In the second set, the Indian raced to a 5-1 lead, with breaks in the second, fourth and sixth games.
