Live coverage of Cincinnati Open 3rd round ATP, WTA results, schedule
MASON, OH − The singles field at the Cincinnati Open is getting noticeably thinner as the tournament moves into its second week Aug. 11.
The Round of 32 begins Aug. 11 from the Lindner Family Tennis Center and there’s no shortage of stellar matches on tap, including the No. 1 player from both the ATP and WTA.
Reigning Cincinnati Open champion and World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka matches up with No. 30 seed Emma Raducanu for the third time. Sabalenka is 2-0 in previous meetings, but their last bout was a competitive 7-6 (6), 6-4 clash on the Wimbledon grass.
ATP No. 1 Jannik Sinner is looking for a second-straight Rookwood Cup. Sinner is 38-2 on hard court this season and is a monster favorite on Center Court Aug. 11 against 23-year-old Canadian Gabriel Diallo.
