Miami: Women's 4th Round

The women's field also set their quarterfinals on Monday, and here are those eight ladies:

2) Caroline Wozniacki (DEN):  defeated 22) Pavlyuchenkova, 2 and 2;  The world #2 keeps on winning;
3) Venus Williams (USA):  defeated 19) Hantuchova, 6-4 in the 3rd;  Venus hasn't lost in ages;
6) Agnieszka Radwanska (POL):  defeated Shvedova, 1 and 4;  Back to back quarterfinals for Aggie;
9) Samantha Stosur (AUS):  defeated 7) Jankovic, 6-1, 7-6(9);  Stosur gets revenge for IW semi;
12) Yanina Wickmayer (BEL):  defeated Bacsinszky, 1 and 0;  The Belgians march on;
13) Marion Bartoli (FRA):  defeated 1) Kuznetsova, 3 and 0;  Kuzzy now has shoulder pain and **Fails to defend semi**;
14) Kim Clijsters (BEL):  defeated 4) Azarenka, 4 and 0;  **Vika fails to defend title** and the Belgians march on;
Justine Henin (BEL):  defeated 11) Zvonareva, 1 and 4;  Good run for Vera and the Belgians march on;

Just three of last year's quarterfinalists are still here, and Stosur and Wozniacki have successfully defended.  Venus needs one more win.  These quarterfinalists are a little different from 2 weeks ago at Indian Wells, though Wozniacki, Radwanska, and Stosur remain.  All three Belgians are still alive compared to 0 at IW, then we have a suprise in Bartoli and a stalwart in Venus.

Quarterfinal matchups for Tuesday and Wednesday:

-Wickmayer vs Bartoli
-V.Williams vs Radwanska
-Stosur vs Clijsters
-Wozniacki vs Henin
