Elsewhere, women's third seed Amelie Mauresmo and seventh seed Patty Schnyder progressed, as did men's fifth seed Nikolay Davydenko, sixth seed Guillermo Coria and dark horse Tommy Haas.

Schnyder put paid to the hopes of Shinobu Asagoe of Japan in straight sets and will meet another Japanese star, Aiko Nakamura, who downed 31st seed Gisela Dulko of Argentina 6-1, 6-1.

Nakamura is Asia's only singles players left after Indian teenager Sania Mirza failed to live up to expectations against Michaela Krajicek of the Netherlands.

Krajicek will next play Mauresmo, who beat Emilie Loit of France.
