–

The third round concluded Sunday, with 2023 finalist Anhelina Kalinina putting all those points she has to defend to the test on the Centrale against Maria Sakkari. And losing them.

Cana-Kiwi Erin Routliffe and this week’s partner, Coco Gauff, went at it again and pull off a nice one against the May-December pairing of Mirra Andreeva and Vera Zvonareva.

And notably, there were two women’s matches on the Centrale that feature Ukrainians against … Russians or Belarussians. Which means no handshake.

Which is always just an awkward if understandable situation – especially for those in the stands who aren’t aware of the fact that this has been understood for a couple of years already.
