KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) - The lone American woman left at the Nasdaq-100 Open is Jill Craybas, which says something about Amelie Mauresmo's title chances.
With several top players absent or already eliminated, the No. 1-ranked Mauresmo eased into the fourth round by beating hobbled French compatriot Marion Bartoli 6-4, 6-0 Sunday.
Craybas knocked off a seeded opponent for the second day in a row, sweeping No. 27 Klara Koukalova 6-1, 6-2. That wasn't quite as monumental as her upset Saturday of defending champion Kim Clijsters, but it was pretty sweet for a 31-year-old tour veteran with one career title.
