Dementieva will encounter France's Marion Bartoli in the quarterfinals.

Former top-ranked Russian and three-time major finalist Dinara Safina got past former top-10 Slovakian Daniela Hantuchova 7-6 (7-4), 7-6 (7-2) to reach the round of eight. Safina will meet fellow Russian Maria Kirilenko on Thursday.

Meanwhile, the sixth-seeded former Wimbledon runner-up Bartoli leveled Aussie Anastasia Rodionova 6-3, 6-1, seventh-seeded Italian Flavia Pennetta pasted Belarusian Olga Govortsova 6-3, 6-2 and eighth-seeded Russian Nadia Petrova pounded American qualifier Bethanie Mattek-Sands 6-3, 6-2. Petrova will battle second-seeded French Open runner-up Samantha Stosur of Australia in the quarters.
