AUSTRALIAN OPEN: DAY 3

No real upsets on Day 3 of the Australian Open. Davenport, Sharapova, Henin-Hardenne, Kuznetsova, Hantuchova, Serena Williams and Petrova are all seeded players in the top half of the draw who made it through in straight sets (except for Kuznetsova who lost a 2nd set tiebreak but then easily won the third). Of the elite players, Serena actually had the easiest match of the day, beating Camille Pin of France 6-1, 6-3 in under an hour.

The lower half of the draw with Clijsters, Pierce, Mauresmo, Schnyder as well as Hingis and the "youngsters" (Ivanovic, Vinci, Groenefeld, Safina, Vaidisova, Mirza et al ) plays later today.
