It’s Thursday and finally three of the top four seeds saw action in Seoul.
No. 1 Iga Swiatek, No. 2 Ekaterina Alexandrova and No. 4 Daria Kasatkina played, and the first two got through.
Along with No. 5, No. 6 and No. 8. Who didn’t.
So a good day of action, and a good forecast for a change with the next rain only expected on Friday afternoon.
(Seoul is 13 hours ahead of EDT)
