With the first round now complete, play at the Australian Open will continued Wednesday with Day 3 from Melbourne. That means the start of the second round and a few notable names returning to the court. No. 1 women’s seed Serena Williams and No. 2 men’s seed Novak Djokovic will be among those in action.

Williams will face Vesna Dolonc after advancing with a 6-2, 6-1 win against Ashleigh Barty. Williams is one of a couple highly-seeded women in action. No. 4-seed Li Na, No. 9-seed Angelique Kerber and No. 14-seed Ana Ivanovic will also play.

On the men’s side, Djokovic will be the highest seed in action when he takes on Leonardo Mayer. Djokovic was tested at times in the first round, but still came away with a 6-3, 7-6, 6-1 victory against Lukas Lacko. No. 3-seed David Ferrer and No. 7-seed Tomas Berdych will be among the other players in action.
