–

MIAMI, Fla. – A lot of rain Tuesday night, with the gripping Pegula vs Potapova match finishing in the wee hours and ending in another stirring, gutsy win by the under-the-radar American.

The dismissal by Elena Rybakina of Martina Trevisan was significantly less dramatic.

On the doubles side, Canadian Leylah Fernandez and partner Taylor Townsend upset the No. 3 seeds, and are into the semifinals.

They’ll play Magda Linette and Bernarda Pera, who defeated Fernandez’s BJK Cup teammate Gabriela Dabrowski and Luisa Stefani earlier in the tournament.
