Donna Vekic and Kimberly Birrell both notched straights wins over home hopefuls to set up a mouthwatering quarter-final in Chennai.
Third seed Vekic was in cruise-control as she sauntered to a 6-2 6-2 victory over Sahaja Yamalapalli while Birrell was made to work a bit harder in her 7-6 7-6 success against Shrivalli Bhamidipaty.
This will be their fourth meeting with Vekic leading 2-1 overall. The Croatian was a 6-0 6-4 victor at Wimbledon this year and also posted 6-4 6-4 triumph at the US Open in 2024.
Birrell’s victory also came on a hardcourt but it was way back in 2019 as she clinched a 6-4 4-6 6-1 win at the Australian Open.
Vekic will be eager to rise back up the rankings have fallen from the top 20 down to 78 as it stands.
She will feel she has the game-plan to come out on top against the Aussie once more and there’s no doubt her top tennis trumps the world number 117.
