Tournament Results & Quick Hits – WTA Doha
- Despite looking very solid in her first set against CiCi Bellis, Simona Halep had to withdraw from the semi-final after being troubled by her foot. She came into the tournament having been unavailable to play for Romania in the Davis Cup having not fully recovered from the injury she sustained in the first round of the Australian Open.
- Garbiñe Muguruza had to mount a real come-back from a set down against Caroline Garcia – she had been set to meet Halep in the semi-final and gets a walk-over.
- Caroline Wozniacki and Angelique Kerber put on quite a show as Wozniacki had to battle past the German. It was a tense first set, before Kerber looked to have the momentum, but Wozniacki outlasted her.
- Petra Kvitova’s path to the semi-final was made easier as Julia Goerges retired at the start of the second set.
