Daria Saville and Ajla Tomljanovic are quickly recapturing their best form, but both fell just short in their bid to make the final of their respective WTA tournaments.
After missing plenty of tennis over the past couple of years because of injuries, the two Australian veterans pushed their opponents to the limit on Saturday (Sunday AEDT), but lost their semi-finals in three sets.
At the WTA 500 hardcourt event in Texas, Tomljanovic pushed top-seeded Jessica Pegula all the way but fell just short of reaching the Austin Open title decider.
