Jelena Jankovic enjoyed her first victory over Ana Ivanovic for three years to open her Sony Ericsson WTA Tour Championships campaign with a 6-3 6-4 victory.
"It was a pretty strong performance," Jankovic said after beating her fellow Serb for only the second time in eight meetings. "It was very windy and not easy to play but 1 was strong today and very focused.
"Since the last time we played, at the French Open, 1 have improved so much. My game has gone to another level.”
The two Serbs, playing outdoors for the first time since the US Open in September often produced good quality but also showed a lot of inconsistency, particularly in the early stages.
Ivanovic's forehand was especially potent, with some of her strokes taking the breath away.
The less erratic Jankovic played aggressively from the baseline and was also successful on her occasional forays to the net.
Jankovic made the better start, breaking for 2-0 and holding a break point for 4-0 before Ivanovic settled.
A fine crosscourt forehand gave
Ivanovic a break in the fifth game but her opponent stopped her in her tracks by forcing a backhand error to break for 4 -2.
Jankovic then broke to love to begin the second set. This time Ivanovic levelled at 3-3 before the world number one replied with another break.
That was enough to effectively end the contest although there was drama before the end.
At 5-3 Ivanovic suddenly stopped in mid-rally and leaned on her knees as if in pain before returning to her chair for medical attention.
She resumed, held serve by winning the next two points before Jankovic served out the match.
"I just started feeling dizzy a little,” said Ivanovic. "I think it's maybe humidity and I was probably dehydrated.
"I just felt so weak. I had to stop."
In the tournament's first match, and the same White Group as the Serbian battle, Vera Zvonareva enjoyed a 6-2 6-3 victory over Svetlana Kuznetsova as she handled the windy conditions in the Qatar capital better.
Kuznetsova recently left her base in Barcelona where she has spent much of her life since the age of 14, returning home to St Petersburg in the hope that it will
give her the mental lift her career needs.
But her straight sets loss to Zvonareva again produced a feeling of talent unfulfilled, especially after three missed break points in the first set.
Then two games from the end Kuznetsova attempted a forehand drive winner from well up the court which finished in the net. It put her break point down, making the end all but inevitable
Venus Williams took advantage of a spectacular first-set meltdown from Dinara Safina to win the opening match in the Maroon Group 7-5 6-3.
Safina played sublime tennis in the opening stages of the match winning five of the first seven games and having break points in the other too.
However, when serving for the set she produced three double faults before being broken, and she then failed to win another game in the set
She got competitive again in the second set but couldn't recapture her earlier form and Williams did enough to win in straight sets without haring to play her best tennis.
Each player will play three round robin matches, after which there will be semifinals and a final.
