–

Those who were thinking the San Diego final would be an All-American affair, in America, were wrong on both fronts.

Marta Kostyuk upset No. 1 Jessica Pegula, and Katie Boulter took care of No. 3 Emma Navarro. So the two met on Sunday, and the calmer of the two won.

In Austin, an all-Chinese final.

And at Indian Wells, a day earlier than usual, the women’s qualifying begins.
