I don't know yet until tomorrow morning. But hopefully it's nothing more than a low-grade strain and more muscle spasm more than anything." Third seed Svitolina will meet second seed Karolina Pliskova in the semi-finals after she beat Kaia Kanepi 3-6, 7-5, 6-2.
Aliaksandra Sasnovich beat Alize Cornet 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 and she will now face Latvia's Anastasija Sevastova, who defeated Aleksandra Krunic 6-2 6-4.
