Mathieu defeated Gilles Muller on the tournament's opening day. He is ranked 77th in the world.

Williams knocked off fellow American Taylor Townsend in her first match of the tournament (6-3, 6-1). Williams has won a tour-leading four titles in 2014.

Matthias Bachinger vs. Andy Murray (8)
Murray won the U.S. Open in 2012 and lost in the semifinals last year. This season, he reached the semifinal in the French Open and lost to Grigor Dimitrov in the Wimbledon quarterfinals, marking the first time since 2008 he failed to make it to the event's semifinals.
Bachinger beat Radek Stepanek to reach the second round. He is the 235th-ranked player in the world and has reached only one final in his ATP career, the doubles final at the Atlanta Tennis Championship, where he and Frank Moser lost.
Sorana Cirstea vs. Eugenie Bouchard (7)
Bouchard, currently ranked eighth in the world, defeated Olga Govortsova 6-2, 6-1 in her first match of the tournament. Bouchard is looking to reach her fourth Grand Slam semifinal this season. At Wimbledon, she became the first Canadian woman to make it to the singles final of a Grand Slam event.
