Birmingham, June 8: Indian ace Sania Mirza advanced to the second round of the WTA USD 200,000 DFS Classic after getting a first round bye here.

She made a return to the competitive tennis after missing the entire clay court season, including the just concluded French Open in Paris, due to a wrist injury.

The Indian has been seeded sixth in the Tier III grass court tournament, which is a build up event to the Wimbledon championships.

Sania will meet the winner of Marina Erakovic vs Stephanie Dubois match in the second round.

Ranked 32 in the WTA charts, She comes back to on-court action after a three-month injury lay off.

The Hyderabadi girl had undergone a surgery on April 10 in Florida to repair a capsule tear on her right wrist.

The cast was removed on May 5 and she underwent a rehabilitation programme under her personal physiotherapist Renuka Pinto.
