Two qualifiers face each other in the quarter-finals of the Abu Dhabi Open. Sonay Kartal takes on Sara Bejlek in this rather surprising match-up in the last eight of this outdoor hard court tournament. Read our match prediction below.
Waiting for the winner in the last four will be either third seed Clara Tauson or unseeded McCartney Kessler.
Sojay Kartal won two matches in straight sets to make it into the main draw. No sets were lost in doing so and it's been the same in the past two rounds. After beating Cristina Bucsa, the British player was due to take on top seed Belinda Bencic but she withdrew.
Bencic was replaced by lucky loser Renata Zarazua. Kartal beat her for the loss of only three games and is now 49th in the live rankings.
Sara Bejlek was in need of a good run in Abu Dhabi after losing her previous two matches. The 20-year-old won her two qualifying matches in style with only seven games being dropped by the Czech.
Round one of the main draw saw her avenge a recent loss to Ashlyn Krueger with just three games being lost. That was followed by a straight sets victory over seventh seed Jelena Ostapenko and is now a career-high 72nd.
We tip Bejlek to win.
