Zvonareva battles through

Second seed Vera Zvonareva survived a major scare at the Australian Open today before edging out teenager Bojana Jovanovski.

Zvonareva, who reached the final at the last two grand slams, looked in real danger when she was outplayed in the first set by the 19-year-old, but she hit back impressively to win 2-6 6-3 6-1.
