·Masters·HardJanice Tjen defeated Viktorija Golubic 7(10)-6(8), 5-7, 7-5 — Cincinnati Open 2026 R64.
Janice Tjen and Viktorija Golubic: Janice Tjen leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
One point decided it, and that is not a figure of speech: Tjen finished with 127 of the 253 played. She and Golubic each won 64 percent of their first-serve points and saved 7 of 13 break points apiece, and the WTA No. 51 even finished the day ahead on games, 18-17 — a strange line for the loser to own. The serve that built the climb picked the second set to fail. All six of Tjen's double faults arrived in it and Golubic broke three times to take it, and the 32nd seed did not have the lead back for good until game 11 of the third, a break for 6-5. Golubic saved five match points before it ended, Tjen two of her own, and 3 hours 13 minutes leaves the Indonesian with her first win since Washington and a place in the last 32 at Cincinnati.
