Second seed Kim Clijsters brushed aside Amy Frazier 6-2, 6-0 to move into the second round of the French Open today.

The Belgian made short work of her American opponent on Centre Court to book a clash with either Marlene Weingartner or Lindsay Lee-Waters in the next round.

Clijsters, a finalist here two years ago, is looking to win her first grand slam title.

Jelena Dokic is also through to the second round after a 6-4, 6-4 win over Angelika Roesch.
