Rain and thunderstorms caused big trouble in Hungary, delaying matches, and at the end of the day, the tournament lost three seeds already.
Fans rejoined to watch Hungarian Greta Arn succeed, knocking out No.4 seed Iveta Benesova; and it was a bad day for the French, as two of the country's players were flying home. Greta Arn got revenge as she knocked out Iveta Benesova in straight sets 64 64, who was victorious against Arn in the qualifying rounds of this year Roland Garros.
French No. 6 seed Pauline Parmentier recieved an au revoir from the tournament, after losing in straight sets 75 62 to former top 20 Croatian player Karolina Sprem, who is now ranked No. 329. Parmentier had never played in a second round this year since Amelia Island, where she got to the third round.
Sprem will play No. 7 seed Klara Zakopalova, who also knocked out a French player, Stephanie Cohen-Aloro. It wasn't a difficult match, as Klara outplayed the French woman in straight sets, 62 62.
As the 4th, and 6th seeds were ousted, the third was No. 8 Sorana Cirstea. Cirstea was ousted in straight sets 62 64 Petra Kvitova, who played well enough to reach the fourth round at this year's Roland Garros, her Grand Slam debut.
