Jelena Dokic rallies past Kurumi Nara to reach quarterfinals in Kuala Lumpur
Former World No. 4 Jelena Dokic of Australia came back from a first set loss to beat the feisty Japanese teenager Kurumi Nara with a 3-6 7-6(6) 6-2 scoreline and advanced into the quarterfinals of the 2011 Malaysia Open.

World No. 91 Jelena Dokic continued to commit unforced errors on a regular basis but also maintained the momentum with her powerful shots to rally past Japanese teenager Kurumi Nara with a 3-6 7-6(6) 6-2 scoreline and advanced into the quarterfinals of the 2011 Malaysia Open, a WTA International Event, being played here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Nara took the first set with a 6-3 in just over half an hour. Dokic continued to play erratically during the crucial moments of the first set and failed to broke back Nara, who made the most of the given opportunity and pocketed the first set - with one break of serve in the hand.

Re-live the exciting moments of the match!

Both the players exchanged breaks in the second-set and it reached the tie-breaker, which was won by 7-6(6) score.
 
The trend of trading breaks continued in the final set. Dokic broke Nara in the seventh game of the final set and then Dokic held on to the next game to surge through.
