No. 5 Robin Soderling became the highest seeded man eliminated so far when he was beaten 6-1, 6-4, 7-5 by 18-year-old Australian qualifier Bernard Tomic. The 158th-ranked Tomic served 13 aces and was never broken by the Swede, a two-time French Open runner-up who reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon last year.
Sixth-seeded Francesca Schiavone, the 2010 French Open champion, lost to Tamira Paszek of Austria in three sets 3-6, 6-4, 11-9.
Federer's next opponent will be 18th-seeded Mikhail Youzhny, a Russian who ousted No. 16 Nicolas Almagro 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (3), 6-3.
Nadal will face Del Potro, who beat Gilles Simon 7-6 (8), 7-6 ( 5), 7-5 and showed he is nearing top form after missing most of 2010 after surgery on his right wrist.
Williams, who is to play 2007 Wimbledon runner-up Marion Bartoli, the ninth-seeded Frenchwoman who beat Flavia Pennetta 5-7, 6-4, 9-7, is trying to become the first woman since Steffi Graf in 1991-93 to win three consecutive titles at the All England Club.
Sharapova, who hasn't reached the semifinals since 2006, will next face 20th-seeded Peng Shuai of China, who beat Melinda Czink of Hungary 6-2, 7-6 (5).
Wozniacki, still looking for her first Grand Slam title, swept Jarmila Gajdosova 6-3, 6-2 to make the fourth round for the third straight year. Wimbledon is the only major championship in which the Dane has not reached at least the quarterfinals.
Berdych, the sixth-seeded Czech, who had an easy win over Alex Bogmolov 6-2, 6-4, 6-3 from the United States, Berdych will next play 10th-seeded Mardy Fish, the last American man left in the tournament. He advanced when Robin Haase retired at 1-1 in the fourth set because of injuries. Fish was up two sets to one, 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-2.
