–

Most of the higher seeds in both Berlin and Nottingham went out before the weekend.

Which didn’t mean the semifinal matches weren’t quality.

But some unexpected names came through. And 2023 Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova looked in great form on a windy day as she took down the world No. 1.

Meanwhile, another WTA 500 in Bad Homburg gets started with the qualifying – which includes Ashlyn Krueger, Veronika Kudermetova and two-time major champion Victoria Azarenka.

These are tough fields to crack.
