The Dane won the first set to the Russian, but then Dementieva took action and took the second set. The third ended when Wozniacki fired a forehand winner down the line. The final score was 64 57 75.
"It felt so good," Wozniacki said of the match-winning shot. "I only had that shot to win the point, because she was covering the whole net. I only had this much space to put it in, and when I saw it go through, I just knew it was going to go in."
The bottom half of the draw featured a match-up between No. 16 seed Sabine Lisicki and No. 6 seed Marion Bartoli. The German won the match in easy straight sets to the Frenchwoman, the score being 63 61.
