So the second round has finished and there are a few more upsets. Jelena Dokic, amid links to Vojislav Seselj, a politician linked to Milosevic, crashed out in the hands of Bovina. Dokic wasn't the only seed to exit this round. The Williams sisters continued their dominance, both going through to the third round in straight sets where they were joined by Capriati and Davenport. But the exit of Dokic provided the tournament with its first big shock. She lost 6-3 6-2 in less then an hour.

The other major seeds all made it though in, almost, all cases winning in straight sets. The major exception was Monica Seles who lost the first set 1-6 to Barbara Schwartz. She fought back and who the match 1-6 7-6 (7-5) 6-2.

The seeds that exited were, Dokic as mentioned, Barbara Schett (29), Paola Suarez (32), Anna Smashnova (17), Ai Sugiyama (18) and Elena Dementieva (12). Angelique Widjaja, the conquer of Anna Kornikova was also another second round loser.
