Kristyna Pliskova News

Kristyna Pliskova, for the first time in the season, posted three wins in a row at Charleston last week, defeating more fancied opponents, Siniakova, Vesnina, and Kvitova.
In fact, Pliskova hadn’t won three tour-level main draw matches in a row since Prague last year (lost the clay final to Mona Barthel). The win over Kvitova was Pliskova’s third career top 10 win, second this year (def. #7 Ostapenko at Shenzhen).
The Czech was at her career high rank of #35 not too long ago, in July 2017. Since then, she has gone 9-14 in main draw matches. She participated in this tournament at Biel last year and reached the last eight (l. to the eventual winner, Vondrousova).

Camila Giorgi News

Camila Giorgi also started her clay season at Charleston. After defeating #24 Gavrilova and #205 Soler-Espinosa, she took on Madison Keys in the round of 16 but lost to her in an hour and 17 minutes.
After ending the 2017 season early due to the elbow injury, Giorgi started the new season with a semifinal run at Sydney (as a qualifier). She knocked out big names such as Kvitova, Radwanska, and Stephens, but ran into the eventual winner, Kerber.
Like Pliskova, Giorgi also played at Biel in 2017 and reached the quarterfinal (l. to Sasnovich).
