Leylah Fernandez was looking to get to the quarterfinals in Charleston as she took on No. 7 seed Diana Shnaider on Thursday.
Shnaider has won their last two meetings – both outside on hard courts. And Shnaider didn’t drop a set. Most recent was in Adelaide to start the season. And it continued, although this match was much more of a wipeout as the Russian easily won a slugfest.
In Bógota, the top three seeds were in action. And two of them went out.
