DOHA — Canada's Leylah Fernandez is off to the round of 16 at the Qatar Open after a 0-6, 6-2, 6-3 win over Spain's Paula Badosa on Tuesday.
The Laval, Que., native had an opening set to forget, having all six of her break-point chances saved and having three converted against her, in addition to three aces from Badosa.
However, Fernandez turned it around saving five of Badosa's six break-point opportunities along with the Spaniard committing eight of her 10 double faults in the final two sets of play.
Fernandez won 63.5 per cent of her first-serve points, while breaking on four out of 15 chances.
She is set to face fifth-seeded Qinwen Zheng of China next.
In doubles action, Fernandez will team up with Georgia's Oksana Kalashnikova to face top-seeded duo of Belgium's Elise Mertens and Taiwan's Su-Wei Hsieh later Tuesday in the round of 16.
