Caroline WozniackiMelanie Oudin won’t have the pleasure of meeting yet another Russian at this US Open, as Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark will be her next opponent, who eliminated the last Russian in the draw, sixth seed Svetlana Kuznetsova.

Ninth seed Caroline Wozniacki reached her first Grand Slam quarterfinal by defeating Kuznetsova 2-6 7-6(5) 7-6(3). Wozniacki converted her third match point, having wasted one at 5-4 and one at 6-5 in the third set.

I hit too many unforced errors and I couldn’t control my emotions. And I wanted it so much, so it was pretty hard to control,” world No.6 Kuznetsova said. “All credit to her. But you can’t win against anybody with those errors. No chance.”

The world No.8 Wozniacki was the highest-ranked player never to have been among the final eight at a Grand Slam. World No.18 Virginie Razzano is that player now. (photo: Ralf Reinecke)
