Gulf Today
|April 03, 2025
Despite her opponent saving seven match points, No. 2 seed Madison Keys pushed past Caroline Dolehide 6-3, 7-6 (4) in an All-American second-round battle at the Credit One Charleston Open on Tuesday.
-
Dolehide saved four match points in the ninth game of the second set and two more in the loth to force a 5-5 tie. She saved one more in the tiebreaker before Keys, the 2019 Charleston champion, put the match away.
Defending champion Danielle Collins, the No.7 seed, also advanced out of the second round and had 26 winners and five aces while beating fellow American Robin Montgomery 6-3, 6-1.
In first-round results, winners included Americans Sofia Kenin, Hailey Baptiste, Louisa Chirico, Ann Li and Lauren Davis; China's Shuai Zhang; Maria Sakkari of Greece; and Iryna Shymanovich of Belarus.
Former Charleston Open champion Daria Kasatkina's 6-1, 6-1 second-round defeat of wild card Lauren Davis wasn't just the start of her 2025 tournament, but the beginning of a new career chapter playing for Australia.
