News posted by www.newsinfoline.com

Second seed Venus Williams became the first woman to reach the French Open fourth round when she outplayed Slovakia's Dominika Cibulkova 6-3 6-4 on Friday.A break in the eighth game was enough for Venus, wearing the same risque black lace corset that has been getting all the hype in Paris, to secure the opening set.The American, chasing her first title here, broke the 26th seed's serve again in the second set's seventh game, ending the contest at the net after one hour and 30 minutes.She will next face either local favourite Aravane Rezai or Russian Nadia Petrova for a place in the quarter-finals.(Editing by Miles Evans; To query or comment on this story email sportsfeedback@thomsonreuters.com)
