Australian Open 2014 - Day 3

The heat continues but the top seeds stand strong as Na Li, Serena, Berdych and Djokovic all made quick work of their opponents. Here are some significant results.

Damir Dzumhur (Bosnia & Herzegovina)
VS
Ivan Dodig (Croatia) [32]
4-6,4-6,6-3,4-1 (Retired)

Despite it being because of a retirement Dzumhur makes it to the third round in his first Grand Slam main draw.



Monica Niculescu (Romania)
VS
Sabine Lisicki (Germany) [15]
2-6,6-2,6-2

As said Lisicki is still inconsistent outside of grass but I didn't expect her to lose here.


Casey Dellacqua (Australia)
VS
Kirsten Flipkens (Belgium) [18]
6-3,6-0

Casey Dellacqua kept Australian hopes high with this demolition of the 18th seeded Flipkens. She faces Jie Zheng next.


Karolina Pliskova (Czech Republic)
VS
Daniela Hantuchova (Slovakia) [31]
3-6,6-3,10-12

Another grueling match for Hantuchova, this one lasting over 3 hours. Her 3rd Round opponent will be much tougher though.
