We're deep into the business end of the tournament now, the start of quarter final action. And for Franscesca
Schiavone, after her epic win in the round of 16 to get this far, again found herself in a long drawn-out contest against
top seed Caroline Wozniacki. The French Open champion was on the verge of an upset after taking the first set and
getting an early service break in the second. But the Danish top seed fought back, immediately breaking Schiavone's
set to get the second set back on serve, and the breaking again to take the set. And with the only service break in the
deciding set, Wozniacki was able to cruise to victory and eliminate Schiavone from the tournament.
Chinese 9th seed Na Li made a surprise appearance in last year's semi finals, and this year saw Na repeat that feat
with a straight sets win over Andrea Petkovic to book herself an appearance in the top 4.
On the mens' side of the tournament, an all Swiss quarter final saw defending champion Roger Federer up against
compatriot Stanislas Wawrinka. But there was never any hint of an upset, as Federer dominated the derby from start to
finish to cruise into the semi finals. Federer's semi final opponent will be Serbia's Novak Djokovic, the 2008 champion
being untroubled to cruise to a straight-sets win over Tomas Berdych.
