Friday’s quarterfinals at the Dongfeng Voyah · Wuhan Open feature a little of everything. For starters, four of the Top 5 seeds are through.
It starts with No.1 seed Aryna Sabalenka, who is looking for her fourth title of the year -- and her third in her past four events.
There’s the hot popcorn night match between No.3 Jasmine Paolini and No.5 Zheng Qinwen, while No.4 Coco Gauff is in action, plus an unexpected, unseeded meeting of Ekaterina Alexandrova and Wang Xinyu.
Poland also has two survivors (none named Swiatek), two Magdas, as in Magda Linette and Magdalena Frech.
