...been knocked out. But some things remained unchanged. World No. 1 and top seed Lleyton Hewitt of Australia powered on through the draw. The Williams sisters, Venus and Serena, kept up the winning ways that have made them the world's top two women players. And Anna Kournikova lost in the first round.
