The match between Alexandrova and Świątek suspended
The match was suspended due to weather conditions.
Details: The WTA 500 singles quarterfinal between Ekaterina Alexandrova and Iga Świątek, held in Bad Homburg, Germany, was interrupted by heavy rain, which prevented the match from being completed.
At the time of the suspension, Iga Świątek was leading 1-0 overall, having taken the first set 6-4. The second set was halted at 4-3 in favor of Alexandrova, but Świątek was about to serve.
The match is being played on grass, and the current weather conditions could play a decisive role in the outcome. The winner of this clash will face Italy's Jasmine Paolini in the semifinals, after she comfortably defeated Beatriz Haddad Maia 2-0.
Reminder: The match between Svitolina and Mertens was also stopped for an unusual reason. What happened?
