A set and a breakdown, then facing two match points, Davenport came all the way back to win 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (5) against No. 22 Katarina Srebotnik, earning a couple of standing ovations in the process.

``I thought ... 'It could be my last match here.' I don't know,'' said the 30-year-old Davenport, who won the first of her three major titles at the 1998 Open. ``I didn't think that necessarily on the match points. You know, there's obviously that possibility.''

Her next opponent is No. 7 Patty Schnyder in the fourth round.

``Right now, just being in the round of 16 is exciting for me,'' Davenport said. ``Just essentially being here was a huge positive step.''
