Karolina Pliskova win's over Veronica Cepede into french open 2017

PARIS, France
 Karolina Pliskova faced her biggest test of the tournament against an inspired Veronica Cepede Royg of Paraguay, but survived a two-hour battle to complete the comeback victory.

The World No.3 had to come back from a set down for the first time in the tournament, escaping 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 to take the last spot into the French Open quarterfinals, where she’s set to face French favorite Caroline Garcia.

The win keeps Pliskova on track for a chance to rise to the WTA World No.1 ranking; Angelique Kerber’s first round loss opened the door for Pliskova to usurp the ranking should she reach the final here in Paris. She now sits just two wins away.
