Sara Sorribes' match in the quarterfinals of the Prague Open against Irina-Camila Begu was postponed due to rain this Friday, and ended this Saturday with the Romanian victory. The Castellón had won the first game of the second set after losing the first 6-2 when her duel against the 29-year-old Romanian and 89th in the world was stopped by bad weather conditions that have hampered the tournament throughout the week.
After the restart, Sorribes was able to take the second set, which began with a service in favor achieved on Friday. In the third and final set, the Spanish started with a break advantage, but immediately afterwards, Begu turned the game around to win 6-2, 4-6 and 6-2.
Bad luck for Sorribes, because Begu began to show the fatigue of having played a few hours before against the Swiss Kung in the round of 16 match that was suspended Thursday also because of the rain. Sara had never faced an opponent who surprised her and prevented her from reaching the semifinals of a WTA event for the fourth time in her career.
Joining the Romanian in the penultimate round are Simona Halep, who will face her compatriot Begu, Elise Mertens and Krystina Pliskova. Halep prevailed with great authority over the Polish Frech (6-2 and 6-0), Mertens could with an improved Bouchard (6-4, 1-6 and 6-4) and Pliskova benefited from the withdrawal of the Romanian Bogdan when they trailed 5-2 in the first set.
