Stephens, the 10th seed, made it through the 25th-seeded Anett Kontaveit in straight sets in the fourth round. She faces Kasatkina, the 14th seed who upset Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets in the previous round. Keys, the 13th hseed, faces the unseeded Putinteva, who sent No. 26 Barbora Strycova packing last time out.

On the women’s side, the other two quarterfinals will pit No. 1 Simona Halep against No. 12 Angelique Kerber, and No. 3 Garbine Muguruza, the 2016 Roland Garros champion, against No. 28 Maria Sharapova. Both Muguruza and Sharapova advanced past the Round of 16 due to injuries to their opponents.
