WTAWednesday, 04 March 2020 at 10:00
The first-seeded Elina Svitolina and no. 2 in Monterrey, Johanna Konta both advanced to the Round of 16 after successful first-round appearances.
The day in Monterrey started with a victory of Lauren Davis and the withdrawal of Varvara Flink who let Arantxa Rus through. Then, it was Tatjana Maria who stunned the champion from Acapulco, Heather Watson.
The day at Abierto Seguros continued with a victory of Katerina Bondarenko over Sara Sorribes Tormo. No. 1 in Monterrey, Elina Svitolina also did not experience any major difficulties when she defeated Danka Kovinic 6-3, 6-2 in an hour.
Also the runner-up from Acapulco, Leylah Fernandez got into the next round after defeating Stefanie Voegele. Tamara Zidansek stunned the seventh-seeded Victoria Azarenka when the Slovenian defeated former world number 1, 6-2, 6-2.
The highly-anticipated matchup between Kim Clijsters and Johanna Konta ended sadly for the Belgian once again. Clijsters lost also in her second comeback match and she will need to wait for her first victory since her comeback.
