–
A lot of seeded players went by the wayside in the early going both in Guadalajara and Monastir.
So only No. 7 seed Lucia Bronzetti remains in Tunisia.
In Guadalajara. an ersatz WTA 500 tournament, No. 4 Caroline Garcia vs. No. 5 Magdalena Frech was the highlight match of the two semifinals.
(Monastir is 5 hours ahead of EDT; Guadalajara is two hours behind)

Guadalajara is great…. but the world has their eyes on the Korea draw … somehow Zhang Shuai is still able to get into singles tournaments even though she has not won a match in a year and a half ….. Vince Spadea is keeping an eye on this one … (she took his crown away 2 matches ago) … she gets an equally hapless V Kudermetova …
Is it going to happen ????
