–

Top seed Daria Kasatkina looked for a quarterfinal spot in Palemo, while top seed Irina-Camelia Begu did the same at home in Iasi, Romania.

And wild card Amarissa Toth, she of the dramatic moments on court with Zhang Shuai in her first-round match (and her first WTA main draw match, period) will hopefully have … learned a few things as she took the court against Kateryna Baindl and looked for a quarterfinal spot.

Baindl, though, gave her a tennis lesson.

(Palermo and Budapest six hours ahead of EDT; Iasi is seven hours ahead)
