Russia’s Anna Blinkova claimed the first top-10 win of her career when she came from behind to beat Bencic 3-6 6-3 6-3 in the first round while Sabalenka was beaten 6-4 6-4 by the Czech Republic’s Kristyna Pliskova in the last-16. “It was a great performance from me today,” Blinkova said. “I prepared very carefully and I’m happy that I played good tennis. I was thinking to just fight for every point.
Second seed Sabalenka had 11 break points in the match, including nine in the second set, but could not convert even one as a dogged Pliskova served well under intense pressure.
