The defeat of Kateřina Siniaková from the 3rd round was stepped on to end the match in two sets. After winning the first set, she led 4: 2, but then former junior champion Roland Garros Badosa got up and won the next six games.
Not even the Spaniard, who eliminated Markéta Vondroušová in the round of 16, but did not maintain a promising lead. Zidanšeková equalized to 2: 2 and then the players watched the service for a long time, while Slovinka had to avert three breakballs at 6: 6. In the following gamma, when Badosa was handed, she reached two matchballs and transformed the other with a forehand victory stroke on the line after two and a half hours.
