Ekaterina Makarova(RUS) - Through to Quarter Finals
Sara Errani(ITA) - Through to Quarter Finals

We're well and truly into the business end of the Australian Open, with the first half of the quarter finals being played. By
now, all singles matches are on Rod Laver Arena, with the show courts and outside courts hosting doubles and juniors
matches.
There was a big upset on the womens' side of the tournament. Caroline Wozniacki has been world number one for over
a year, and the top seed at Grand Slam tournaments despite never having won a major. Wozniacki's record of never
having won a Grand Slam tournament is intact, but her reign as world number one will come to an end after the Dane
went down to Belgian veteran Kim Clijsters. Clijsters got an important break to take the first set; and after the second set
went to a tie-break, it was Clijsters who won the points when they mattered to take the match.
Third seed Victoria Azarenka dropped an opening set tie-breaker without winning a point, but took the second and third
sets to end Agniezska Radwanska's tournament.
Former champion Rafael Nadal had a tough fight to get past Tomas Berdych. The Spanish second seed dropped the first
set in a tie-breaker, and again was taken to a tie-break in the second before getting up to level the match at a set all. At
4-4 in the third, it was looking a thriller; before Berdych's resistance was finally worn down and Nadal would close out the
match. It was an easier time for Roger Federer, who cruised through in straight sets against Juan Martin Del Potro.
