–
Only two matches on the sked for Thursday in Madrid, with the semifinals starring Swiatek v Gauff in the opener.
On the WTA 125 circuit, Bianca Andreescu and Leylah Fernandez will be playing semifinals, trying to get to an all-Canuckian doubles final that might at least in part make up for their early singles exits.
And in Saint-Malo, No. 2 seed Naomi Osaka, playing down, looks for a quarterfinal spot against the very capable Diane Parry.
(Madrid, Vic and Saint-Malo are six hours ahead of EDT).
