Bethanie Mattek-Sands skipped backward across the clay, her wagging tongue framed by a smile as she savored yet another surprising victory for American tennis at the French Open. Rejuvenated by a rain delay, Mattek-Sands rallied past 2011 champion Li Na 5-7, 6-3, 6-2 Thursday in the second round at Roland Garros. Following the second interruption of the match, Mattek-Sands swept seven consecutive games to take a 5-0 lead in the final set. She served out the victory with the sun shining as rain fell.
