Bejlek's Winning Streak Gets Another Test
After defeating Karolina Pliskova, Sara Bejlek defeated another compatriot, Barbora Krejcikova, in straight sets to reach the third round, 7-6, 6-4. She trailed by a break in the second set before making a comeback to seal the match in straight sets.
Before the North American swing, the Czech endured a difficult stretch and won only four matches across 11 tournaments from Dubai to Wimbledon due to fitness issues.
However, she has raised her level in recent weeks by reaching the quarterfinals in Athens and Prague and the second round in Toronto. She will now be looking to extend that momentum this week.

Alexandrova Looks to Go Beyond Last Year's Run
Ekaterina Alexandrova moved into the third round in Cincinnati after defeating Anna Blinkova from a set down in the opening round, 6-7, 6-4, 7-5. She saved 12 of the 17 break points she faced and converted seven of the 10 she created during the match.
She is now one step away from matching her best result here in Cincinnati, having reached the fourth round last year after failing to cross the second round in her previous six appearances.
Like her opponent, Alexandrova also struggled significantly earlier this year and registered multiple wins only once in the first five months. However, she has recently gained momentum by posting solid results, reaching the quarterfinals in Bad Homburg and Toronto and the third round at Wimbledon.
