Maria Sakkari storms through to Japan Open quarterfinals

No.4 Seed Maria Sakkari has reached the Toray Pan Pacific Open quarterfinals in Japan after defeating Japan’s Misaki Doi in straight sets (6-3, 6-1).

Sakkari took the match in just 65 minutes, with 25 winners and no break points faced, ending Doi’s tennis career journey.

Paying tribute to the Japanese player, Sakkari told the Hologic WTA Tour that “…it was an honour to play against Misaki in her last ever professional match… You had an amazing career, so congrats.”

Sakkari will face France’s Caroline Garcia next in the quarterfinals of the Toray Pan Pacific.
