Day 3 Results, Adelaide International: Bencic, Sabalenka through, Kerber retires against Yastremska
WTAWednesday, 15 January 2020 at 13:57
The third day of action at the Adelaide International is complete with the likes of Belinda Bencic, Aryna Sabalenka and Donna Vekic all through to the Quarter-Finals.
Bencic as fourth seed saved a set point in the first set; before defeating Julia Goerges in two tiebreaks to move into the Last Eight. She ended up winning 7-6, 7-6; in one hour 50 minutes.
Vekic came through a tough test against Maria Sakkari. The Greek ace moved through the first set 6-2; but the Croatian came back to claim the next two 7-5, 6-1.
She will next face Dayana Yastremska after Angelique Kerber retired due to a left hamstring injury during the second set of their tie; when the Ukrainian teenager was already leading 6-3, 2-0. It is unsure yet how serious the injury is or whether it is just a precaution with the Australian Open round the corner.
There were also victories for Sabalenka who edged past Bernarda Pera; next up is second seed Simona Halep in what is an excellent prospect for the Quarter-Finals. Also Danielle Rose Collins is through; after easing past fellow American, Sofia Kenin.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
