Currently ranked no. 134, Amanda Anisimova is probably one of the favorites to win the title in Hiroshima.

The 17-year-old had to start her run in Japan from the qualifications, and with the exception of 1 match, she left just nothing to her opponents.

Amanda is in the quarters after she defeated both Jana Fett and Saisai Zheng with the same result: 6-1 6-1.

Anisimova will face either the world no.83 Anna Schmiedlova or the world no.103 Viktorija Golubic for a place in the semifinals.
