–

Only four women’s matches – total – on the sked in Madrid on Tuesday.

Two singles quarterfinals, and two doubles quarterfinals.

One of those featured Canadian Gabriela Dabrowski and partner Luisa Stefani, who face the No. 1 seeds Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula. Close, but couldn’t get it done.

No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka and No. 9 Maria Sakkari were considered significant favorites to get to the semifinals, in the bottom half of the draw. And they did, but not without having to come back.
