Second seed Dominika Cibulkova survived a scare to book her place in the Connecticut Open quarter-finals.
The Slovakian, who has had a disappointing year after winning the WTA Finals in Singapore last year, made it to just her third quarter-final of 2017 by beating Alize Cornet 2-6 6-2 6-4 and was duly cut to 4/1 for the title by Sky Bet.
She will now play Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova who saw off Carla Suarez Navarro in straight sets, winning 7-6 (7/3) 6-0.
Shuai Zhang is also through after she needed three sets to get past Magda Linette 6-3 6-7 (7/4) 6-3 while Kirsten Flipkens had too much for Ana Bogdan in a 6-1 7-6 (7/1) win.
Agnieszka Radwanska is the current favourite, offered at 11/4.
