Fellow Australian Daria Saville was also eliminated in the second round at the event in the women's singles. American Asia Muhammad took the match 6-4, 6-4 against the 27-year-old.
Although Saville fell, six other Australian female players are through to the event's quarter-finals, including Arina Rodionova, Jaime Fourlis, Olivia Gadecki, Priscilla Hon, Kimberly Birrell and Tina Nadine Smith.
The men's singles quarter-finals will be even more of an Australian affair, with all international players being eliminated in the first round to stack the line up. Sweeny, and the tournament's number one seed Akira Santillan, remain the favourites.
