ASB Classic - TIER IV - HARD - Quarterfinal

I didn't do a prediction for this tournament I don't think but it would have been difficult as the players seem all quite well versed. I didn't expect Marina Erakovic to get to the Quarters as I don't actually know who she is and I'm slightly dissapointed that Ashley was beaten but she put on a tough match. Vera should easily take her apart looking at her form.
Katarina has also had it easy and Aravane Rezai will be her opponent. I never expected Eleni to get to the quarters of any tournament anyway so Aravane has proven my point. I think Katarina should be able to dispatch of Aravane considering she has only lost one game in two matches.
I never doubted Lindsay Davenport in this draw and I would continue to trust her to beat Sara Errani who took out Michaella Krajicek sadly. But Michaella wasn't in a great state so I hope she gets back on a winning start. I expected Tamira and Maria to get to the quarters so no upsets their but I am really confused on who will get to the semis. At the moment I'm leaning towards Maria but I think Tamira has got that something to get to the semis.
Predictions for Semis
Vera Vs. Katarina
Lindsay Vs. Maria (I hope Maria wins the tournament)
