MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Hsieh Su-wei, who beat Wimbledon champion Garbine Muguruza in the second round, added another seeded player to her Australian Open victory collection with a 6-2, 7-5 win over No. 26 Agnieszka Radwanska.
On the last match of the night on Margaret Court Arena, Radwanska became upset with Hsieh's preoccupation with having moths removed from the court by ballboys and ballgirls, suggesting to the chair umpire that they shouldn't bother because the insects were ''everywhere'' on the court.
Hsieh will play 2016 Australian champion Angelique Kerber in the fourth round.
