Still got the groove


The favourite: Carolina Marin is expected to cruise into the final in Denmark.

PETALING JAYA: It has been seven months since Carolina Marin last played competitively, but it was as if she had never been out of the game at all.

The reigning Olympic singles champion was back at her usual best as she whipped Russia’s Natalia Perminova 21-7,21-15 in just 28 minutes to book her place in the last 16 of the Denmark Open in Odense yesterday.
