STANFORD, Calif. -- Olga Govortsova, ranked 83rd in the world, ended a frustrating run of results with a convincing 6-2, 6-4 victory over No. 2 seed Samantha Stosur in the second round at the Bank of the West Classic on Tuesday. Govortsova won back-to-back matches for the first time this season. She had lost seven of her previous eight entering the tournament. "It helped that I had the extra match and I played four matches in World Team Tennis last weekend," Govortsova said. "I dont think she has played since Wimbledon." The 25-year-old Belarussian beat Germanys Julia Goerges in straight sets in the first round. Govortsova earned her ninth win over a top-20 opponent and her first since beating Agnieszka Radwanska via retirement at New Haven last year. This is also the first time she has reached a quarterfinal round this season. Stosur, ranked 13th, reached the third round at Wimbledon. The Australian was knocked out in the first round for the first time since early May -- a span of five tournaments. "She was playing quite well and I wasnt able to combat what she was able to do," Stosur said. "Things were slowly turning around, and I had a break to go 5-5. I gave myself a chance to get back into the match but I had to win that last game." Stosur had 10 double faults, including two in a row at one point. "That didnt set a good tone for the match," she said. "It is inexcusable to get that many in one match." Seventh-seeded Urszula Radwanska downed American Christina McHale, 6-1, 6-3 while Daniela Hantuchova beat Yanina Wickmayer 6-2, 4-6, 6-0, in their first-round match. "Ive played for a long time but not for myself until now," Hantuchova said. "Im very relaxed, playing for myself and enjoying the pressure. I can see the results on the court." In other matches, sixth-seeded American Varvana Lepchenko beat qualifier Michelle Larcher de Brito of Portugal 6-2, 6-4; qualifier Coco Vandeweghe, a finalist last year, downed Romanias Monica Niculescu 6-0, 6-3; Austrias Tamira Paszek was ahead 6-1, 6-7(4), 3-0 and advanced when Russian qualifier Alla Kudryavtseva retired ; and Russian qualifier Vera Dushevina topped New Zealands Marina Erakovic 6-2, 6-1 Asics GT-2000 4 Mens .

Bryant, who signed a five-year, $34 million contract as a free agent with Cleveland in March, reported symptoms on Monday morning, a team spokesman said.JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert was in pads and at practice Wednesday, but still a day away from a full return. Gabbert took limited snaps -- none in 11-on-11 drills -- while recovering from a sprained right ankle. Chad Henne got all the repetitions with the first-team offence, and Mike Kafka got second-team work. Gabbert expects to be full-go Thursday "unless something magical pops up." "Its doing a lot better," he said. "The biggest thing right now is just managing it and not doing anything too soon. But Im feeling a lot better." Gabbert injured his ankle late in practice Monday when guard Uche Nwaneri stepped on him during 11-on-11 drills. Gabbert slammed his helmet to the ground in frustration, before limping to the sideline. He was eventually carted to the locker room. Tests were negative, and Gabbert took some snaps in a walkthrough later that night. Even with Tuesday off, though, the Jaguars decided to bring Gabbert back slowly. "He came up to us and he felt like he was in good shape," coach Gus Bradley said. "He really wanted to go, so we came up with a plan to limit his reps. ... I know we were very cautious with his reps and which period he was going to get the reps, but he said that it felt pretty good." This is thhe latest injury in Gabberts three years in the NFL.dddddddddddd He played with a nagging toe injury as a rookie in 2011 and missed the final six games last season with a right forearm injury. He also had a torn labrum in his left, non-throwing shoulder. He was thankful this one was minor. "It was a freak play," Gabbert said. "It was a matter of a couple inches. It happens in the game and you just have to kind of manage it right now. Luckily it happened in practice 4, so we dont really have much to worry about." With Gabbert out, Henne completed 11 of 19 passes in team drills. Kafka completed 10 of 14 passes. Rookie Matt Scott misfired on four of his five attempts. "Kafka is doing a good job," Bradley said. "Its really his first or second time seeing it. ... We need to get him some reps. Hell get his opportunity, but the challenge for him is to take advantage of it just like he has today." Bradley said a couple of injured players could be back on the file early next week -- receiver Justin Blackmon (groin) and safety Johnathan Cyprien (hamstring). Blackmon is on the physically unable to perform list following surgery. Cyprien, the teams second-round draft pick, is on the non-football injury list after tweaking his hamstring while working out two weeks ago.
