Some intriguing matches in store, with Coco Gauff looking to bounce back from her loss in Beijing, and Elena Rybakina looking to try to qualify for the WTA Finals. Both got through without much drama.
And defending champion Aryna Sabalenka, who skipped Beijing and took a nice breather after winning the US Open, was back in action Wednesday night against Rebecca Sramkova. After a slow start she, too, prevailed.
(Wuhan is 12 hours ahead of EDT)
