Half of remaining draw in to round of 16
- Get Your Own
Though it was no surprise to some of us, Sybille Bammer upset her way into the round of 16 by defeating Elena Dementieva, 6-1, 6-2. Bammer has really raised her game this summer, and though I was a bit surprised by the scoreline, I wasn't surprised by the result. Most of the matches were two-setters, though it took Jelena Jankovic three sets to ward off Alize Cornet, and it took Marion Bartoli her usual three sets to defeat always-tough Lucie Safarova.
Tomorrow's third round is the round of phenoms: Nadia Petrova faces Agnes Szavay, Martina Hingis plays Victoria Azarenka, Patty Schnyder has to contend with Tamira Paszek, and Maria Sharapova gets Agnieska Radwanska. How many phenoms will make it to the round of 16?
