British player Katie Boulter made a remarkable start to her Merida Open quarter-final against top seed Jasmine Paolini, taking the first set 6-0. However, the Italian fought back strongly to claim victory with a 6-3 6-3 scoreline.
Boulter, who had been in impressive form throughout the tournament, couldn't maintain her level as Paolini adjusted her game to overcome the early deficit and advance to the semi-finals.
