Kalinskaya will face Leylah Fernandez, the Canadian, in the final. Fernandez was Raducanu’s opponent at the US Open final, with the Briton defeating her 6-4 6-3 on Arthur Ashe Stadium to clinch the title. Raducanu’s next focus is on Montreal, where she faces Elena-Gabriela Ruse in the first round of the WTA 1000 event.

Emma Raducanu’s impressive run in Washington has ended after a straights-set defeat by the Anna Kalinskaya, with the Russian’s heavy ground-strokes and metronomic accuracy proving too much for the Briton.

Leylah Fernandez will be trying to win her first WTA title of the season, and Anna Kalinskaya will seek the first of her career when they meet each other in the final of the hard-court D.
