Williams opened the match under tight competition, as expected, and broke Na Li's serve in the eleventh game to claim the opening set by 7 games to 5. The second set brought early success for Williams who broke Li's serve in the fifth game to race to a comfortable 5-2 lead. Li did make an effort to get back into the match by getting one of the breaks back but Williams resumed control of the match immediately and completed the 7-5, 6-3 win in 79 minutes of play.

Williams now meets the winner of the match between Estonian Kaia Kanepi and Czech Petra Kvitova, which is already underway on Court 1.
