Women's World No. 1, Molly Picklum, goes down to rookie Sawyer Lindblad shortly after a three-peat is denied to Tyler Wright from the young wildcard Ellie Harrison. On the men's side: George Pittar upsets the reigning event victor Ethan Ewing in the Round of 32, Sammy Pupo sears excellence into the day on a fresh blade from JS, and Jack Robinson is sent home from another wildcard and familiar face, Morgan Cibilic. All-important, head-to-head matchups now await the world's best with those fighting to keep their CT runs alive and well amid Mid-season Cut pressure looming each new heat.
