That would be Kimiko Date-Krumm and Zhang Shuai, Zheng Jie is partnering Peng Shuai (Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers).
The worst part, Roi, is that while I was typing it, I was thinking "how nice that Zhang Shuai has gotten this far in doubles," and I still typed the wrong name!
Thanks for the catch.
