Third-seeded Babos and Hlavackova defeated their opponents 4-6, 6-4, 10-5 in an hour and 30 minutes, as media reports suggest.

"I can't believe we pulled this match through. They played so well!" Hlavackova said after the match.

"We were not playing as great as before and were a bit nervous. We were just more brave in the end," the Czech champion added.

"We were so much more powerful and aggressive. I really believe big champions have to do this," Babos said.
