MOSCOW -- Former No. 1 Ana Ivanovic and the 2011 U.S. Open champion Samantha Stosur advanced to the Kremlin Cup quarterfinals with straight-sets victories on Thursday, as top-seeded Alexandr Dolgopolov bowed out of the mens event. The 11th-ranked Ivanovic broke the 19-year-old Russian qualifier Valeria Solovieva three times in a 6-1, 6-4 victory, while Stosur struggled past Alize Cornet of France 7-6 (6), 7-5. "It was a good match for me," said Ivanovic, whose opponent was playing in only her second WTA match. "Its never easy to play someone you havent seen before as you dont know how they react in the different situations. But Im happy Ive managed to finish in good style." Ivanovic, whose best result this season was a semifinal appearance in Indian Wells in March, will be playing in her fifth quarterfinal. The 2008 French Open champion is looking for her 12th career title. Ivanovic will next face Serbian qualifier Vesna Dolonc, who advanced to her second career WTA quarterfinal by routing Romanias Simona Halep 6-1, 6-0. Top-seeded Stosur prevailed on a first-set tiebreaker and, 5-4 and 40-15 down on her serve in the second set, saved three set points before making the decisive break in the 11th game. The ninth-ranked Australian wrapped up the victory with a passing backhand crosscourt shot on her first match point. "We always play tough against each other," Stosur said. "But we didnt meet for a long time and we both seriously improved our tennis since our last meeting. "Today I had plenty of opportunities and chances to finish the points off. And It was important to believe I was doing the right things and to receive the win as a reward." In Fridays quarterfinals, Stosur will face Klara Zakopalova of the Czech Republic Seventh-seeded Maria Kirilenko, the only Russian left in the womens draw, rallied from 5-1 down in the first set to beat Yaroslava Shvedova of Kazakhstan 7-5, 6-4. In the second round of the mens tournament, French qualifier Edouard Roger-Vasselin produced the biggest surprise of the event so far, saving four match points to beat Dolgopolov of Ukraine 6-3, 7-5, 7-6 (6). "It was a very close and a tough match," Roger-Vasselin said. "I survived four match points but also missed several easy shots on my match point before winning the match." The 20th-ranked Dolgopolov landed 10 aces to his opponents eight and had two match points, leading 6-5 and 40-15 in the second set, and two more at 6-4 on the tiebreaker. The Frenchman clinched victory with a forehand down the line. "It was tough for me to get into the match but then I had many chances in almost every game in the third set," Dolgopolov said. "Yet I failed to make a break. It was so simple -- I missed my chances and he has capitalized on his only one." Roger-Vasselin will next play Croatian veteran Ivo Karlovic, who served 16 aces to beat Alex Bogomolov Jr, 7-6 (11), 6-4, the last Russian left in the mens draw.
