Madrid Open PHOTOS: Former champs Halep, Kvitova, Sharapova move into quarterfinals

Our Jimmie48 started the day by photographing top seed Simona Halep‘s 15th consecutive victory in the Caja Magica, as the Romanian defeated Kristyna Pliskova, the Czech who sported the Lotto Summer Twice II Tank and Skirt while awaiting to launch the new Batik collection that I talked about yesterday. Karolina Pliskova took the court shortly afterwards, beating Sloane Stephens in straight sets and setting up a quarterfinal with her twin sister’s conqueror.

Caroline Wozniacki was stunned by Kiki Bertens, who will play Maria Sharapova in the quarterfinals, as the Russian beat Kristina Mladenovic in straight sets.
