Caroline Garcia advanced to the quarterfinal stage in the WTA Mallorca Open after a two-set victory over Johanna Larsson in the round of 16.

Garcia, who is the tournament’s No. 1 seed, beat Sweden’s Larsson 6-4, 6-3.

Earlier in the day, Alison Riske beat Angelique Kerber in their delayed match to eliminate progress to the next round.

Elsewhere, Sofia Kenin came from behind to beat Alison Van Uytvanck to progress to last eight.

Kenin, who is the world No. 90, lost the first set 2-6 before battling her way back with two consecutive 6-4 set victories.

Also on day three, Lara Arruabarrena beat Samantha Stosur in two sets 6-3, 6-4 while Tatjana Maria claimed victory over countrywoman Carina Witthoeft 7-6 (1), 6-3.
