Elina Svitolina of Ukraine and Germanys Andrea Petkovic also advanced easily. Svitolina beat Galina Voskoboeva of Kazakhstan 6-1, 6-2 and next plays either third-seeded Sara Errani or Karin Knapp -- the Italians were playing their match later Thursday -- while Petkovic beat Frenchwoman Kristina Mladenovic 6-4, 6-2. Petkovic next faces either Frenchwoman Alize Cornet or lucky loser Barbora Zahlavova Strycova, who replaced second-seeded Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic after she pulled out because of a sore throat. "I really wanted to play, but I had to see the doctor because I wasnt feeling well," Kvitova said. "When I was trying to warm up this morning, after 10 minutes I realized that I couldnt breathe, so unfortunately I have to pull out."

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers looked fine on the practice field Thursday. It doesnt mean he is going to play. There was no definitive word on whether Rodgers will be medically cleared to return from his left collarbone injury in time for Sundays game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was just another day in the guessing game called "When Will the Franchise Quarterback Return" for the Packers. Coach Mike McCarthy indicated he would name his starter Friday. Rodgers also made several references to his playing status being an "organizational decision." "Just a Thursday practice, didnt take a lot of reps with the teams but felt pretty good out there, was feeling good," Rodgers said. "Its obviously a medical decision and an organizational decision at this point." Flat out, Aaron: Will you be playing Sunday? "Its a medical decision, its an organizational decision," said Rodgers, who is listed as "limited" on the official practice report. During a brief portion of practice open to media Thursday, Rodgers did a little stretching and looked sharp in position drills. He watched as backup Matt Flynn led the offence during another short practice period. "Aaron Rodgers practiced well today. Tomorrow is -- we have the medical meetings on Wednesday and Friday, so well have a conversation tomorrow," McCarthy said. "Obviously, today hes still not medically cleared. Looked very good at practice. I would state him ready to play." Flynn took the majority of the reps Thursday, McCarthy said. Flynn has said hes preparing this week as if hell start. By all accounts, Rodgers is itching to return. He hasnt played since getting knocked out of the first series of a 27-20 loss Nov. 4 to the Bears. Green Bay started 0-4-1 without him before rallying for two straight come-from-behind victories to get back into the NFC North race. Flynn has played well late in games to lead the Packers, but knows full well that Rodgers gets the job back whenever hes cleared. "We want him back when hes healthy and ready to go, and look forward to that,&quoot; receiver Jordy Nelson said.dddddddddddd"Hopefully if its not this week, we can keep winning, and give him another opportunity." For Rodgers, the frustration level goes down when hes back out there on the practice field with his teammates. He would much rather have the ball in his hands than holding a clipboard on Sundays. He came close to being cleared last week. Asked about his progress, Rodgers said he had had completed about every pass in practice after throwing a few clunkers last week. "At this point, I have to focus on the things I can control and thats practicing well, taking care of my business in the weight room, preparing, being a good teammate," Rodgers said. The Packers made a big investment in Rodgers this past off-season, signing him to a five-year contract extension through the 2019 season worth as much as $110 million. The 2011 NFL MVP, who turned 30 this month, led the Packers to a 5-2 start despite a litany of injuries elsewhere on the team. Receiver Randall Cobb, tight end Jermichael Finley and linebacker Clay Matthews were among those who got hurt before Rodgers went down. Rodgers said he hasnt had any setbacks. When asked, Rodgers said he had a "good sense" of whether he would be cleared. And that would be? "Yeah, thats another Mike McCarthy question there for tomorrow," he said. There is at least definitive word on defensive lineman Johnny Jolly, who is out with shoulder and neck injuries that McCarthy termed as "significant." Jolly left in the first half of last weeks 37-36 win over Dallas and never returned. Jolly made 38 tackles this season, and was a key player during those spurts this year when the Packers were stopping the run. Jolly turned into an inspiration on the team, working his way back after having been away from the game three years following his suspension by the NFL for violating the leagues substance-abuse policy. "Johnny loves football, so he was down at first. Hes pretty cheery, hes up now," fellow linemen Ryan Pickett said. "Hell bounce back. Hell be back next year."
