Angelique Kerber and Caroline Wozniacki will play for the first time in a Slam when they meet in the US Open semi-finals on Thursday. Kerber battled through a gruelling opening set against Roberta Vinci before rolling through the second, recording a 7-5 6-0 quarter-final victory over last year’s finalist. The first set was brilliant and…
In an all-unseeded last eight meeting, Caroline Wozniacki and Anastasija Sevastova will play each other on Tuesday for a place in the US Open semi-finals.

New match-up klaxon… Madison Keys and Caroline Wozniacki will go head-to-head for the first time on the WTA tour in a blockbuster fourth rounder set for Sunday at Flushing Meadows. For the second time this week, Keys was on the brink of going out of the US Open. In one of, if not her greatest ever…

All 16 second round matches will be played in Doha on Tuesday… it’s going to be a feast of WTA action! I’m currently crying at the prospect of having to work through it all but on a positive note, Lucie’s match is later, third on, so I *should* get home in time to watch. In…
The St. Petersburg Ladies Trophy has produced a solid slate of quarter-finals which will all take place on Friday. First up will be the number two seed, Roberta Vinci against one of four unseeded players in the last eight, Timea Babos. This will be Babos’s first Premier quarter-final and she’s enjoying a decent year so far.…
Thursday’s match of the day in St. Petersburg will see a first clash in over three years between Caroline Wozniacki and Dominika Cibulkova. The pair have played 12 times before but had avoided each other in draws since the end of the 2012 season. While the number 3 seed, Wozniacki had a bye in the first round, Cibulkova…
