WIMBLEDON, England (AP) — Kim Clijsters has advanced to the third round at Wimbledon by beating Karolina Sprem 6-3, 6-2.

Playing first Wednesday on Court 1, Clijsters committed just 13 unforced errors and erased the only three break points she faced.

The No. 8-seeded Clijsters, who returned from retirement last year, is playing at Wimbledon for the first time since 2006. She has reached at least the third round at her past 16 Grand Slam tournaments.
