Meanwhile, already out of singles competition, Sania Mirza's doubles campaign also ended after she and partner Chia-Jung Chuang suffered a straight set 2-6, 3-6 loss to Alla Kudryavtseva and Monica Niculescu in the second round. Sania and Chia had their chances but failed to grab them. Out of seven break points they got they could convert just one and paid the price.

Sixth seed Jelena Jankovic was also on the wrong end of a shock result as qualifier Melanie Oudin beat the injury-hit Serb 6-7,u00a0 7-5, 6-2.
