Monterrey (Mexico), March 6: Elina Svitolina and Johanna Konta eased into the Monterrey Open quarter-finals on Thursday (March 5).
Svitolina, the top seed at the WTA International event, was too strong for Belarusian Olga Govortsova 6-3 6-4 in one hour, 18 minutes.
The Ukrainian managed four breaks of serve in her victory, moving into a last-eight clash with Canadian teenager Leylah Fernandez.
Konta was pushed more but still got past German Tatjana Maria 7-6 (7-4) 6-3.
The British second seed was wasteful, converting just one of 12 break points to advance.
