Barbora Krejcikova lost the first three games of her maiden slam quarterfinal against 24th seed Cori Gauff and faced five set points in the opening set. She fended off all of them, three with clean winners, and humbled the teen sensation with a 7-6, 6-3 win just before the two-hour mark.

Maria Sakkari also played her maiden slam quarterfinal on Wednesday and started as the underdog against defending champion Iga Swiatek. She was pegged back by an early break but rallied past a thigh injury-hampered Pole to prevail 6-4, 6-4, with an 83% first-serve win percentage.
