There were no such worries for Belgium's Kim Clijsters, who cruised into the quarter-finals with a resounding 6-1 6-2 win over former French Open winner Iva Majoli of Croatia.
The number of people taking out an IVA has increased fourfold since 2003, but there is evidence that in some cases they are being sold inappropriately to people who may not be able to afford them.
This would bring to six the number of Aegis platforms in Japan's inventory, giving it a considerable infrastructure to provide for an early and potentially highly effective anti-missile defense of the Home Islands by equipping these ships with both the lower-tier Standard Missile (SM) 2 Block IVA missile and upper-tier SM3 Block II missile as they become available.
