No. 4 seed Karolina Pliskova faced unseeded Camila Giorgi in the Omnium Banque Nationale singles final. And the underdog won.
After that, Canadian Gabriela Dabrowski and Brazilian partner Luisa Stefani will play their second doubles final in as many weeks – against the same team that defeated them in the San Jose final last Sunday. And they got their revenge.
In Cincinnati, Leylah Fernandez meets Elena-Gabriela Ruse for a spot in the main draw.
