A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Anna Blinkova goes up against Elsa Jacquemot in the Barranquilla semifinal. Elsa Jacquemot has won 3 in a row and 5 of the last 10 overall. Anna Blinkova has won 4 of the last 10.

Jacquemot's 64.4% behind the first serve (against 61.1% for Blinkova) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Blinkova comes in off a compressed schedule; Jacquemot comes in off a compressed schedule. Little separates them; Jacquemot gets the nod on the finest of margins.
