Radwanska wins as Wang springs Shenzhen surprise

DEFENDING champion Agnieszka Radwanska reached the quarterfinals of the Shenzhen Open yesterday with a 6-0, 6-3 win over Sorana Cirstea.

The top-seeded Pole broke Cirstea six times, a day after being forced to save three match points in a lengthy three-set win over Chinese wildcard entry Duan Yingying. Third-ranked Radwanska will next face Alison Riske of the United States, the player she beat in last year’s final. Riske advanced by beating Tsvetlana Pironkova on Bulgaria 6-1, 6-1. Third-seeded Johanna Konta also reached the last eight after rallying to beat Vania King 1-6, 6-3, 6-2, while unseeded Wang Qiang defeated seventh-seeded Monica Niculescu 7-6 (1), 6-4 in a gruelling 2-hour encounter.
