After winning the first set, Krejčíková entered the second well as well. Thanks to the break in the opening game, she took the lead and had a match point at 5: 3 during the opponent’s serve. However, Sakkari turned him away, leveled him, and the shortened game had to decide. Krejčíková succeeded in it and in the second round she will meet Jelena Ostapenková from Latvia or Patricia Maria Tigová from Romania.

Siniaková was not enough for Jabúrová, the 31st player in the world rankings. The Tunisian stepped on the break to 3: 1 to win the first set. In the second set, the Czech tennis player, who is on the 68th place in the WTA ranking, erased the loss 0: 2, but then lost the serve at 2: 3 and the opponent did not let go of the lead.

Another five Czech tennis players will start in Dubai. The qualifier Tereza Martincová is waiting for Kristýna Plíšková in the first round and Markéta Vondroušová will play against the Romanian Anna Bodganová. Only in the second round will Petra Kvitová and Karolína Plíšková enter the tournament, which Anastasija Sevastová from Latvia is waiting for.

Eighteen-year-old Danish Clara Tauson at the tournament in Lyon went from qualifying to the first title of her career. In the final, in which the players from the qualification competed at the WTA circuit for the first time since 2017, Viktoria Golubicová from Switzerland, ten years older, managed 6: 4 and 6: 1.

Russian Andrej Rubljov confirmed his role as the favorite in the final in Rotterdam and defeated Márton Fucsovics from Hungary 7: 6 and 6: 4. The eighth player in the world won the seventh match for the title in a row and scored his eighth tournament triumph.

Argentine Diego Schwartzman won the tournament in Buenos Aires. In the final, he defeated compatriot Francisco Cerúndol 6: 1 and 6: 2 and won the fourth title.
