Eighth seed Elena Vesnina advanced to the second round of the Open GDF Suez in Paris in one of only two first-round matches played on Monday.
The Russian was always in control against Romania's Alexandra Dulgheru as she eased to a 6-1 6-4 success.
Hungary's Agnes Szavay is also in to round two after her opponent, Belarus' Olga Govortsova, was forced to retire hurt.
Szavay was 6-3 and 1-0 up when Govortsova, who represented her country in the Fed Cup last week, succumbed to sickness.
