Seeds go 5-1 on Day 4; Schnyder not included in quarterfinal action on Friday

As the second round action in the Generali Ladies Linz wrapped up, the seeds went 5-1, with Patty Schnyder falling in three sets to a Ukrainian.

Schnyder, the No. 4 seed, failed to reserve a spot in the quarterfinals, as she fell to Alona Bondarenko, 62 26 61.

The top two seeds prevailed, unlike the Swiss player, as No.1 seed Ana Ivanovic beat Sybille Bammer, 62 64; and No. 2 seed Vera Zvonareva ousted Nuria Llagostera Vives, 62 60.

Other seeded winners included No. 5 seed Nadia Petrova, who dismissed Katarina Srebotnik, 64 76(7); No. 6 seed Marion Bartoli, who beat Petra Kvitova in three sets, 76(4) 16 63; and No. 7 seed Flavia Pennetta, who ousted Dominika Cibulkova, 63 61.
