Home favourite Elena Baltacha becomes the first British woman to reach the second round of this year's Olympic singles at Wimbledon.

Home favourite Elena Baltacha has reached the second round of the Olympic singles by defeating Hungary's Agnes Szavay in straight sets.

The British number four broke to-15 in the third game of the match before taking the first 6-3 with another break in the final game of the set.

Baltacha was doing her best to please the home support on Court 18 and almost made a crucial breakthrough at 3-2 in the second. Szavay's resistance held though and the set was levelled.

Baltacha was not to be denied, however, and broke two games later to take a 5-3 lead before holding to-love, finishing the match with an ace.

The 28-year-old will play Serbia's Ana Ivanovic in the second round at the All England Club.
