Victoria Azarenka beats Anna Blinkova 6-1, 6-0, for their match for the Mubadala Silicon Valley Classic tennis tournament at the San Jose State University Tennis Complex in San Jose, Calif., on Monday, July 30, 2018.

No. 1 seed Garbiñe Muguruza was scheduled to play Victoria Azarenka but withdrew due to a right arm injury. Muguruza was replaced by “lucky-loser” Anna Blinkova.
