Khachanov, Hurkacz advance in Den Bosch, Samsonova stunned by qualifier
FILE PHOTO: Tennis - Italian Open - Foro Italico, Rome, Italy - May 15, 2025 Poland's Hubert Hurkacz in action during his quarter final match against Tommy Paul of the U.S. REUTERS/Aleksandra Szmigiel/File Photo Poland's Hubert Hurkacz and Russia's Karen Khachanov made winning starts to their Libema Open campaigns in Den Bosch, Netherlands on Wednesday, while top seed Liudmila Samsonova suffered a shock loss to Canadian qualifier Carson Branstine. In her first appearance in a WTA Tour main draw, world number 231 Branstine sealed a breakthrough 6-4 5-7 6-1 win over defending champion Samsonova. Their match had been halted on Tuesday due to darkness at one set apiece, but Branstine returned to dominate the decider, not facing a single break point while converting two of her four break opportunities. Branstine, who was born in California and represented the United States until 2017, will next face fellow qualifier Elena-Gabriela Ruse of Romania. Fifth seed Hubert Hurkacz overcame a back issue, requiring two medical timeouts, to defeat Spain's Roberto Bautista Agut 7-6(2) 6-4 and book his spot in the second round. The 28-year-old Pole will next take on 22-year-old Estonian Mark Lajal, who beat Serbia's Laslo Djere 6-2 6-4. "It's my first time here and I'm really loving it," said Hurkacz. "It's always nice to play on grass. Obviously, the end was a little bit tricky, but hopefully I will be better for tomorrow. My back hurts a bit, but I will do some work with the physio later." Khachanov, the third seed, prevailed in a third-set tiebreak to claim a hard-fought 6-3, 5-7, 7-6(4) victory over American Mackenzie McDonald and reach the quarter-finals. The Russian will play Canadian Gabriel Diallo, who saved two match points to overcome sixth seed Jordan Thompson 4-6 6-1 7-5. Britain's Dan Evans came from a set down to defeat Australian Rinky Hijikata 3-6 6-4 6-3 and Greece's Maria Sakkari eased past Dutch wildcard Anouk Koevermans 6-3 6-4.

Canadian Branstine upsets top seed at Libema Open, Diallo also moves on
'S-HERTOGENBOSCH – Carson Branstine upset women's top seed Liudmila Samsonova while fellow Canadian Gabriel Diallo downed men's eighth seed Jordan Thompson on Wednesday at the Libema Open grass-court tennis tournament. Branstine, ranked No. 231 in the world and playing in her first WTA Tour-level main draw, completed the 6-4, 5-7, 6-1 victory with a dominant third set after the match was suspended Tuesday night due to darkness with the players tied at a set each. Branstine didn't face a break point in the final set while breaking Russia's Samsonova, ranked 18th in the world, twice in four chances. The 24-year-old Canadian qualifier is set to face Romania's Elena-Gabriela Ruse in second-round action on Thursday. Montreal's Diallo came back from a set down to beat Australia's Thompson 4-6, 6-1, 7-5 and advance to the men's quarterfinals. Diallo, ranked 55th on the ATP Tour, had 11 aces and was broken just once on 10 chances as he picked up his second career win on grass. He converted three of the seven break chances he had against Thompson, who is ranked 37th in the world. Diallo will next face third seed Karen Khachanov of Russia, who needed a third-set tiebreaker to get past American qualifier Mackenzie McDonald on Wednesday. In women's doubles quarterfinal action, Branstine and Bianca Andreescu of Mississauga, Ont., lost 7-5, 6-3 to the second-seeded team of Hungary's Fanny Stollar and Russia's Irina Khromacheva. Andreescu is still alive in the singles tournament and will face seventh seed Lulu Sun of New Zealand in the second round on Thursday.
