Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

If people expected Gauff v Pegula in the Beijing final, they ended up getting … Anisimova v Noskova. Which might still be good – especially the way Anisimova played in absolutely trouncing Gauff in the semifinals.

In Wuhan, the final round of qualifying features wild card Bianca Andreescu getting unseeded Anastasia Zakharova in a match that, on paper, she should win.

(Beijing and Wuhan are 12 hours ahead of EDT)
