At the same time, Martincová entered the match with the reigning Wimbledon champion brilliantly and took the lead 4:0. But then Rybakinová won seven games in a row and didn’t give her opponent a chance.
The 27-year-old Martincová thus extended her unfavorable streak and in the tenth tournament in a row she did not go further than the second round. The last time she was in Nottingham was in June, where she finished in the semi-finals.
Siniaková easily won the first set, but Trevisanová entered the second better and took the lead 2:0. But the fresh winner of the US Open in doubles turned the score around and her next opponent will be Jodie Burrage from Great Britain.
Fruhvirtová is in the quarterfinals
In the second round of the tournament in Chennai, Fruhvirtová defeated the fifth seeded Swede Peterson 6:4, 6:2.

Fruhvirtová will play the winner of the match between Carol Zhao from Canada and tournament runner-up Varvara Gračová from Russia for her first semi-final appearance on the WTA circuit.
At the same time, Fruhvirtová lost 0:3 in the first set, but managed to turn the tide. In the second set, Peterson, ten years older, didn’t allow too much and advanced to the second quarterfinal in her career. She presented herself in it for the first time last year in Charleston.
