McCartney Kessler and Ekaterina Alexandrova: Ekaterina Alexandrova leads 2–0 across 2 recorded meetings.
Landing first serves was never the problem for Kessler, who put 71 percent in play to her opponent's 49 and still held only four of eight service games. Alexandrova broke to open both sets and finished 4 of 5 on break points, with 16 winners against 14 unforced errors; Kessler went 0 for 3. The win ends a two-match losing run for the 18th seed, who gets Kimberly Birrell, ranked 69th, next.
