Meanwhile, Canada’s Gabriela Dabrowski and her partner Erin Routliffe of New Zealand fell to Kazakhstan’s Anna Danilina and Russia’s Irina Khromacheva in another quarterfinal. Despite being the top-seeded team, they struggled to win key points, losing 6-4, 6-3, and breaking their opponents’ serve just once.

Despite being the top-seeded team, Dabrowski and Routliffe struggled with their serves, only winning 59% of their first-serve points and were broken four times by their opponents. The defeat marks a disappointing end to their Wuhan Open campaign.

As Fernandez and Sutjiadi prepare to face Americans Jessica Pegula and Asia Muhammad in the semifinals, their confidence will be bolstered by their quarterfinal performance. A spot in the final is within reach if they continue their strong form in the next round.

With their successful run at the Wuhan Open, Fernandez and Sutjiadi have shown they are a formidable pair in women’s doubles. Their upcoming match against Pegula and Muhammad will be a critical test of their partnership and performance under pressure.
