–

The women’s semifinals showed that Iga Swiatek is absolutely on form. And that Jasmine Paolini still has a fair bit to do even if she’s not playing as well as she was last year.

And in the happy stories department, the Cana-Kiwis win in Cincinnati and take a positive fork in the road after a tough start.

(Cincinnati is on EDT).
