AMELIA ISLAND, Fla. (AP) - Venus Williams and Lindsay Davenport won their second round matches Tuesday at the Bausch & Lomb Championships, and appeared headed for a showdown in the quarterfinals.
Williams overmatched Martina Sucha in 46 minutes, 6-0, 6-1, and Davenport, the No. 1 player in the world, shrugged off some first-set struggles to open defense of her Baush & Lomb title with a 6-4, 6-3 win against Kristina Brandi.
In her first win of the year on clay, Williams lost only five points in her first five service games before Sucha broke through for four consecutive points in the 12th game of the match.
