Clijsters Takes Center Stage Tonight

After a fantastic day session today at the 2005 Acura Classic, fans attending the night session on Stadium Court are in for a big treat. At 7 p.m., seventh-seeded Kim Clijsters of Belgium will make her first Acura Classic appearance since reaching the finals here in 2003. The Belgian will play Poland's Marta Domachowska.

In the final match of the evening, Elena Dementieva of Russia will team with Tatiana Golovin of France for a first-round doubles match against the American wildcard team of Biffy Kaufman and Lindsey Nelson. Kaufman, a San Diegan, and Nelson, who hails from Orange County, competed in the Acura Classic qualifying singles draw last weekend after they each won an Acura Classic Opportunity Tournament earlier this summer.

Among the winners during today's day session were Mary Pierce, Patty Schnyder, Ai Sugiyama, Sania Mirza and Nathalie Dechy. Each player advanced to the third round.
