Correct Answer: Anastasia Myskina
Explanation:
All odd numbered seeds up to 15 reach the 2nd round while instead of seeds 2 to 16 the players who reach the second round are seeds 31, 29, 27, 25, 23, 21, 19 and 17.
The second round matches are between seeds 1-17, 31-15, 3-19, 29-13, 5-21, 27-11, 7-23 and 25-9. Since there are no upsets in that round the winners are seeds 1, 15, 3, 13, 5, 11, 7 and 9.
The quarter final line up would be
1-9, 15-7, 3-11 and 13-5.
If seed 13 wins her match in the quarters she will next meet seed 1, i.e. Maria Sharapova in semifinals.
