No. 3 seed Alexandra Eala of the Philippines won the first nine games of her first-round match against Yasmine Mansouri of France en route to a 6-0, 6-2 victory Tuesday at the SP Open in Sao Paulo.
Eala, 20, saved all four break points she faced while thoroughly dominating, winning 69.4 percent of her service points (34 of 49) along with 60.8 percent of her return points (31 of 51). Eala won her first WTA Challenger tournament last week at the Guadalajara 125 Open and is seeking her maiden tour-level win.

Other winners included Turkey's Berfu Cengiz and a pair of Brazilians, Laura Pigossi and Ana Candiotto.
The night match was set to pit No. 1 seed and home favorite Beatriz Haddad Maia against Italy's Miriana Tona.

German sixth seed Tatjana Maria wrapped up a 6-4, 6-2 win in the first round over Turkey's Zeynep Sonmez on a rain-interrupted day in Mexico.
A rain delay concluded early Tuesday evening, which allowed Canadian Marina Stakusic to complete a 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 win over Russia's Polina Kudermetova. Of the other six matches, only one had gotten underway, as France's Elsa Jacquemot won her first set against Greece's Maria Sakkari 6-2.
Upcoming matches at the WTA 500-level event included No. 5 seed Magda Linette against Colombia's Emiliana Arango and Sloane Stephens against Italy's Lucrezia Stefanini.
