MATCH POINTS
Svetlana Kuznetsova and Yulia Putintseva are level at a win apiece in previous encounters. The Kazakh's triumph in St. Petersburg last year came after a loss in Cincinnati earlier in 2017.
Zheng Saisai and Allie Kiick meet for the first time, as do Magda Linette and Donna Vekic.
Svetlana Kuznetsova has not dropped a set in Washington this week - only Zheng Saisai can match that.
Andrea Petkovic seeks to reach her second final in Washington, having previously lost the showpiece to Magdalena Rybarikova in 2013.
Svetlana Kuznetsova also seeks to repeat a final showing, the Russian taking the title in 2014 with a victory over Kurumi Nara.
