Andy Roddick vs. Richard Gasquet Stadium 1 - 9:00 pm

The night session concludes with a marquee matchup between the hedgehog and the fox. Roddick is the hedgehog, the man who knows one big thing, namely, his serve. Gasquet is the fox, a guy with more hitches, glitches, and flair in his strokes than any two other players. If all of those things are in sync, he can be unbeatable, but Roddick has less to think about out there, and he won their only meeting, last year in Vienna, in three sets.

Winner: Roddick

Shahar Peer vs. Anna Chakvetadze Stadium 3 - Third match

This is the era of tall girls, right? Don’t tell that to Israel’s Peer or Russia’s Chakvetadze, neither of whom reach to Maria Sharapova’s shoulders. But that doesn’t mean they can’t play power tennis, and both of them make the most of every inch and ounce they’ve got. Peer is a gritty fighter with an Army pedigree who launches herself into her backhand and has a penchant for improbable comebacks. Chakvetadze, who’s downright tiny in WTA terms, uses old-fashioned clean ball-striking to hold her ground. Each has snuck into the Top 20 in the past year.

Winner: Peer

Na Li vs. Jelena Jankovic Stadium 2 - Second match

Jankovic, of Serbia, loves to jump at the ball and take a reckless crack at it. Her backhand is her better shot, but behold the whip she gets on her forehand—it’s one of a kind. Li has more compact strokes and a level-headed game, and she hits heavily from both sides. She’s also been steadily improving for two years now. Her one problem: Finishing—points, games, and matches. Fortunately, it’s a trait she shares with her opponent.

Winner: Jankovic
