The 27-year-old Latvian trailed 2-0 in the second set but responded by reeling off the last six games of the match to seal victory in just 63 minutes.

    In other matches in the WTA 1000 event, American sixth-seed Jessica Pegula defeated 10th seed Daria Kasatkina 6-3, 7-5 while fifth-seed Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan also advanced with a 7-6(1), 6-2 win over Rebecca Sramkova.
