–

The No. 1, No. 3 and No. 9 seeds (along with unseeded Daria Kasatkina) survived to make the weekend at the Italian Open.

The bigger match, of course, involved No. 1 Iga Swiatek and No. 3 Aryna Sabalenka. But it wasn’t much of one.

So Swiatek and Ons Jabeur – who both have winning streaks going – make the final. Something will have to give.
