WUHAN, China - World number one Ash Barty fended off a late comeback attempt by American Sofia Kenin to reach the Wuhan Open quarter-finals on Wednesday , while second seed Karolina Pliskova was knocked out in straight sets by Ukrainian teenager Dayana Yastremska.

Wimbledon champion Simona Halep was forced to retire from her match against wildcard Elena Rybakina while trailing 5-4 in the first set after feeling sharp pain in her back.
