Granby, Canada
Daria Saville has booked her place in the quarterfinals at a WTA 250 tournament in Granby in convincing fashion.
The ninth-seeded Australian needed only 63 minutes to beat Canadian wildcard Katherine Sebov 6-1 6-0 in second-round action today.
This propels Saville into her fourth WTA quarterfinal of the season. The world No.73 now faces either Canadian qualifier Cadence Brace or China’s Wang Xiyu for a place in the semifinals.
It continues an incredible comeback season for Saville, who was ranked as low as No.627 in February. She is currently projected to enter next week’s US Open inside the world’s top 70, her highest ranking position since May 2019.
