Kaia Kanepi pushed Madison Keys to the third set, but she never stopped being the aggressor. She hit 31 winners to the Estonian’s 13 and lost just one service game in an hour and three-quarters to win 6-1, 3-6, 6-1. It’s a good start to a tournament where she’s made it to the third round in six of her last eight appearances. She reached the 2019 quarterfinals after defeating Caroline Garcia and Elena Rybakina (in a third-set tiebreak) en route to a second-week appearance in 2018. The world No. 20 will be a factor this fortnight, especially after quarterfinal appearances in Dubai and Charleston this season.

Kayla Day is having the best season on tour in nearly six years, and she added to it by defeating former top ten player and local favourite Kristina Mladenovic, 7-5, 6-1. The qualifier saved all five breakpoints in one game on her way to her first main draw win on tour since 2017 Stanford and a spot in the top 100. The 23-year-old is a former junior world No. 1 who won the US Open in 2016, but her career has stalled in recent years. She recently won her biggest title at W100 Bonita Springs and has now won four matches in a row in Paris, including a third-set tiebreak victory over Elina Avanesyan.
