MELBOURNE Cheap David Rundblad Jersey , Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Many of the top seeds at the Australian Open struggled through their second round matches on Wednesday, as the tournament's young guns put on a show for the 70,000 fans in attendance at Melbourne Park.
What was supposed to be a routine match up for second seed Caroline Wozniacki, soon turned into the most exciting tussle of the day.
Down one set to 19-year-old Croatian Jana Fett, Wozniacki looked like she would be making an early exit in the tournament.
With clear signs of frustration, including a moment when the Danish star threw her racket on the ground in anger, Wozniacki managed to compose herself and survive multiple match points in the third set to break serve three times and eventually get the win 6-3 Cheap Dennis Rasmussen Jersey , 2-6, 5-7.
It was a similar story for Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, who was pushed to the limit in a 5-set thriller by 18-year-old Canadian player, Denis Shapovalov.
In the end, the experienced Frenchman hung on to win the battle 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 Cheap Trevor Van Riemsdyk Jersey , 6-7 (4-7), 7-5.
Third seed Grigor Dimitrov also had a grueling 5-set encounter with 22 years old American Mackenzie McDonald.
But the Bulgarian managed to clinch the victory 4-6, 6-2, 6-4, 0-6, 8-6, after looking down and out in the fourth set.
Other top contenders like Rafael Nadal Cheap Brandon Mashinter Jersey , Marin Cilic and Pablo Busta Carreno managed to cruise through their second round clashes, while crowd favorite Nick Kyrgios found things a little more difficult.
There was certainly no problem with the way the Aussie was playing, taking out the contest in four sets.
The issues came with a bizarre series of disruptions off-court, that saw a helicopter halt play, a heckler in the crowd get ejected from the venue after shouting and a problem with the arena's audio speakers that caused feedback issues for both players.
"The guy in the crowd was crazy," Kyrgios said.
"I didn't really know what was going on. [With] the helicopter, that's when I was thinking like Cheap Brian Campbell Jersey , of course it's at my match...there were a lot of things going on there today," he explained after the match.
In the women's bracket, fourth seed Elina Svitolina eased her way to the third round, while world number 7 Jelena Ostapenko was too strong for China's Duan Yingying.
Belinda Bencic crashed out against her little-known Thai opponent Luksika Kumkhum, just 48 hours after defeating last year's finalist Venus Williams, in straight sets.
Frenchwoman Alize Cornet shocked Germany's Julia Goerges in straight sets, while China's 25th seed in the tournament Zhang Shuai bowed out to the Czech Republic's Denisa Allertova in an entertaining back and forth battle.
But the story of the day belonged to 15-year old Ukrainian Marta Olehivna Kostyuk Cheap Scott Darling Jersey , who became the youngest women to make it into the third round of a Grand Slam in over 20 years, after beating out home town hero Olivia Rogowska.
BEIJING, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- China will continue to streamline administrative approval and cut red tape to improve business environment, according to a statement released after an executive meeting Wednesday.
Premier Li Keqiang, who chaired the meeting, called for more efforts to remove barriers to market access and lower transaction costs.
Services should be improved while the supervision should be strengthened, said the statement.
All local governments should create healthy business environment for fair competition to enable market players to provide products and services of high quality.

SEOUL Cheap Marcus Kruger Jersey , July 30 (Xinhua) -- Samsung Electronics' second-quarter operating profit missed market estimates for its flagship Galaxy S6 smartphone and lack of supply in curved-screen Galaxy S6 Edge, the company said Thursday.
Operating profit was 6.9 trillion won (5.9 billion U.S. dollars) in the three months through June, the company said in a statement. It was up 15.36 percent from the prior quarter, but down 4.03 percent from a year earlier.
It also missed market expectations of about 7.1 trillion won. Samsung shares moved in negative territory in Seoul trading, falling more than 1.6 percent in the morning session.
Revenue slid 7.29 percent from a year earlier to 48.54 trillion won in the quarter, and net income fell 7.97 percent to 5.75 trillion won.
Operating profit at Samsung's mobile phone division reduced to 2.76 trillion won in the second quarter from 4.42 trillion won a year earlier.
Samsung rolled out its new Galaxy S series in April, but the new smartphones failed to capture hearts of Chinese consumers. According to market researcher IHS Cheap Andrew Desjardins Jersey , the company's smartphone share in China dipped to 8.6 percent in the second quarter from 9.8 percent in the first quarter.
Its powerful Chinese rivals raised their market shares. Xiaomi ranked first with an 18.2 percent market share, and Huawei came next with 16.2 percent. It was followed by Apple's 11.6 percent.
Global demand was higher for the curved-screen S6 Edge than the traditional Galaxy S6, but Samsung failed to figure out what consumers want by insufficiently providing the curved-screen models.
Samsung said in the statement that supply issues concerning Galaxy S6 Edge have been addressed. The company increased production of curved screens to meet demand for the S6 Edge.
"The Mobile Business plans to firmly maintain sale of premium smartphones by flexibly adjusting the price of the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge, and launching a new model with a larger screen," the statement said.
Samsung sold 8.9 million units of mobile phones, about 80 percent of which was smartphone sales, in the second quarter Cheap Niklas Hjalmarsson Jersey , down 6.3 percent from a year earlier, the company said at a conference call after earnings announcement.
Operating profit at the semiconductor business, which produces memory chips and application processors, almost doubled to 3.4 tr.
