Elena Rybakina, the world No. 2, showed rare frustration by throwing her racket after dropping the first set to Leylah Fernandez at the Stuttgart Open. The Kazakh player staged a comeback to win 6-7(5), 6-4, 7-6(8) in a nearly three-hour quarterfinal match. Rybakina advances to face Mirra Andreeva in the semifinals.
