Spre deosebire de primul sfert de finală al WTA Premier 5 “Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships”, al doilea disputat astăzi a fost lipsit de dramatism, căci Petra Kvitova s-a desprins de la 4-4 în primul set – până acolo Kuzmova revenise de la 0-3 – cu 8 jocuri câştigate la rând, doar unul dintre ele având nevoie de prelungiri:
Petra Kvitova (Cehia, 4 WTA) [2] – Viktoria Kuzmova (Slovacia, 46) 6-4, 6-0 în 1h2′
Petra Kvitova se califică astfel pentru a doua oară în semifinalele turneului de la Dubai, după ediţia din 2013, atunci când a câştigat ulterior titlul turneului de categoria Premier şi pentru a 3-a oară în acest sezon, după Premier Sydney şi Australian Open.
Ea urcă în urma acestei victorii pe locul 3 în clasamentul live, o depăşeşte pe Sloane Stephens şi rămâne în cursa pentru locul 2.
Semifinala de pe jumătatea inferioară a tabloului va fi:
Su-Wei Hsieh (Taipei, 31) – Petra Kvitova (Cehia, 4) [2]
