Meanwhile, Alex De Minaur and Marie Bouzkova leveraged good Wimbledon runs for their first titles of 2022—and Caroline Garcia backed up her Warsaw upset over Iga Swiatek with another trophy.

The 19-year-old is just the eighth man to reach the Top 4 as a teenager since the ATP rankings began in 1973.

The 24-year-old didn't need to hit a single winner in her 6-0, 6-3 rout of Anastasia Potapova, as she became the fifth Czech champion in tournament history.

The seventh-seeded Russian has marched to her second WTA final of the season at the Prague Open after defeating Qiang Wang 6-3, 6-0.

Potapova is coming off of a remarkable win over world No. 2 Anett Kontaveit, but Wang is playing well and is a formidable foe in her own right.

And before the world No. 1 was ousted in Warsaw, the world No. 2—Anett Kontaveit—fell to Anastasia Potapova in Prague.

The Russian, who has not lost a set at the hard-court tournament so far, will next face China's Qiang Wang in the semifinals.

In their debut exchange about tennis topics, David Kane and Stephanie Livaudais tackle the recent discourse surrounding the Mutua Madrid Open’s decision not to award a wild card to veteran Fernando Verdasco.

Inspired by those fighting in an embattled motherland, the Ukrainian stars claimed emotional wins in Monterrey and Lyon, respectively.

The top seeds each advanced in straight sets as first-round action continued at the WTA 500-level indoor event.
