–

No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka and No. 4 Elena Rybakina got the Manolo Santana stadium slots Sunday, as they looked for spots in the round of 16. Rybakina rolled; Sabalenka had everything she could handle with young American lefty Robin Montgomery.

An all-American dubs clash between the pickup team of Gauff and Townsend (in on a wild card after Jessica Pegula withdrew from Madrid) and Miami Open champs Mattek-Sands and Kenin could certainly feature some Olympics-bound players. And it was a barnburner.

There are still eight days to go in the event, but the number of matches is already significant cut down.
