Kaia won

Kaia won today and will meet Maria Kirilenkoga (RUS, WTA 155) in the quarterfinal match tomorrow.

Kaia's own words: "She served well today and it was difficult to find any rhythm. I was in bed the whole day yesterday with a cold and I felt a bit weak today. In the beginning of the second set I felt very weak and called for a trainer, but she did not do anything to help. I just continued, did not give up and adjusted. The weather got cooler as well and I found some more strength."

The quarterfinal match will be played tomorrow at center court as the third match of the day. First match starts at 12 local time / 6 in the morning Estonian time.

7:6(3) | 2:6 | 3:6

Kaia lost

Kaia lost a three set long battle 7:6 2:6 3:6.

Kaia's own words: "Maria played well from the second set, she returned also very well. During long rallies I did not have much strength today. In overall it feels totally different to play while ill. I could not see the ball very well and took longer to react than normally. It has been a week full of troubles :)"

Next tournament will be China Open in Beijing, starting September 27th.
