Davis, No. 68 on the WTAs singles list, lost in 70 minutes as both players battled on the fifth day of a record heat wave and temperatures in the mid-40s C. "It was definitely hot today, the hottest I felt in any of my matches so far," said Bouchard. "I was happy to win in straight sets." Bouchard, the 30th seed, will next play unseeded Australian Casey Dellacqua, who beat Zheng Jie of China 6-2, 6-4 Bouchard earned her quick win on a second match point, which she set up with a forehand winner in the corner after a 16-shot rally. The Montrealer took a 5-1 lead in the opening set but failed to serve out in the next game, with Davis climbing to 2-5. Bouchard took the opener in the next game before taking control and running out the victory. Bouchard ended the match with four aces, breaking on five of eight chances, with 18 winners and 23 unforced errors. "I always want to do better, I think its just a step in the process," Bouchard said of her fourth-round achievement. "Im trying to always improve on the court. I think I played better today, thats what Im most happy about." Dellacqua, unseeded in Melbourne and ranked No. 120 in the world, said she will face a battle against what she called Bouchards great server. "Its going to be another challenge for me ... I know it will be tough against Eugenie." Bouchard also won her opening doubles match with last-minute partner Vera Dushevina of Russia. They defeated beating Yalena Solovieva and Elena Svitolina of the Ukraine 6-3, 6-1 in a meeting of unseeded pairs.
