Sasnovich Edges Podoroska in Three
Sasnovich moved into the last eight of the competition after a draining two-hour-and-49-minute second round win over fifth seed Nadia Podoroska.
The Latvian lost the first set in the tiebreak, but rebounded in the next two to seal the contest 6-7 (7-9), 6-4, 6-4. Saving five of 10 break points, Sasnovich broke her opponent seven times in the contest, which also saw her win 60 percent of her service points and 42 percent return points.
A two-time WTA finalist, the World No. 99 has reached just one other tour-level quarterfinal this year. She began her Cleveland campaign with a 6-4, 7-5 win over America’s Christina Mchale on Monday.
Having struggled to win two matches in a row in most of the tournaments, Sasnovich will be seeing this as a great opportunity to reach her first semifinal of the year.
