Only Iga Swiatek advances to San Diego finals as rain disrupts schedule

Rain continues to hamper the San Diego Open and the finalists are not set going into the final day of play. Saturday’s first semifinal, Iga Swiatek versus Jessica Pegula, was paused for rain, throwing off the schedule for the rest of the day as cloud systems continued to form and periodically drizzle onto and finally drench the court.

Danielle Collins and Donna Vekic first walked on court at 17:30. After multiple delays, it was decided at 22:15 that they would finish the semifinal on Sunday before the winner plays the final. They had played almost two and half hours at the time of suspension; Collins was serving at 4-6 6-4 4-2.
