Kuznetsova, the tournament's sixth seed and reigning French Open champion, fell behind early in both sets, but outlasted Zheng, 7-6 (3), 7-5, on center court at the Olympic tennis center.

The 26-year-old Zheng had never beaten Kuznetsova, who won the China Open in 2006, in four previous meetings.

Top seed Dinara Safina of Russia was to face Italy's Roberta Vinci, and second seed Serena Williams was set to battle Estonia's Kaia Kanepi.

In other first round matches on Sunday, Russian seventh seed Vera Zvonareva beat Romania's Sorana Cirstea 6-2, 6-2, and Switzerland's Patty Schnyder brushed aside Poland's Urszula Radwanska 6-4, 7-5.

The men's main draw gets under way on Monday, with Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Roddick leading the charge.
