It's day four of Wimbledon and the tournament saw its first top seed upset on the women's side. Third seed Maria Sharapova lost in straight sets to unseeded Alla Kudryavtseva. Kudryavtseva defeated Sharapova 6-4 and 6-2. The elimination marks Sharapova's earliest exit ever at Wimbledon.
Lindsay Davenport is also out of the tournament and did not participate in today's match with Gisela Dulko. Davenport was unable to compete due to a knee injury. On Tuesday she struggled, but was still able to win her first round match. Gulko will now face fifth seed Elena Dementieva, who won in three sets today.
Second seed Jelena Jankovic won her second round match against Carla Suarez Navarro. Jankovic won in straight sets (6-1, 6-3). Jankovic will now face 31-seed Caroline Wozniacki in the third round.
Seventh seed Venus Williams defeated Anne Keothavong in straight sets, to advance to the third round. The defending champion won the first set, 7-5 and the second set 6-2. Williams' next opponent is Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez.
That's all I have. Feel free to check out the rest of the draws at this link.
I'll have a US Open recap later tonight.
