Compared to the carnage among the top seeds on Saturday, it was a relatively normal day on Day 7 with
few upsets occurring.
But it wasn't looking that way early. Second seed Jelena Jankovic dropped the first set against Denmark's
Caroline Wozniacki, but then rallied to take the match in 3 sets. Mens' third seed Novak Djokovic also
dropped the first set against Marin Cilic in a tie-break, and conceded an early break in the second set. But
Djokovic then regained his touch to take the match in 4 sets.
No such dramas for Roger Federer, Nikolay Davydenko, Andy Roddick or Elena Dementieva; who all
cruised through in straight sets. Fernando Gonzalez lost a third set tie-breaker against Jarkko Nieminen
but a crushing 6-1 demolition in the 4th set gave the Chilean the match.
The upset of the day was the departure of 18th seed Nicolas Almagro, going down in a marathon 5-setter
to Luxemborg's Gilles Muller.
