I am a student taking cryptography this semester. I I was just wondering why can't we use this simple protocol?

Alice ----Open→ Open Connection--> Bob

Alice <--
Alice ← Cert$_b$--- Bob

Alice --- ← Bob
Alice → {K$_{AB}$}$_{Bob}$ -->Bob→ Bob

Assume bob is the server and we're only interested in one way authentication. 
Is there anything wrong with it in terms of security and performance?
