Sania Mirza, accompanied by father Imran, enters the courts at the SAAP Tennis Complex in Hyderabad, where she resumed training on Tuesday after an injury lay-off.
The Indian tennis sensation was out of action for seven weeks because of a knee injury.
"The knee is 90 per cent okay; there is little pain and she looks rusty after the long break," Imran Mirza said.
"After two weeks' training on her favourite surface -- hard court -- she will decide on the comeback date," he added.
Sania sustained the knee injury during her first round match at the Qatar Open in February. A medical test in Hyderabad revealed a Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury but surgery was not necessary.
The 20-year-old is now following a schedule given by her trainer, Heath Matthews, who will join her next week.
