The 2014 finalist was pushed during the opening set but she was eventually able to secure the win by a 6-2 7-6 scoreline.

The two players shared six breaks of serve during a competitive start to the contest but Halep held her nerve during the resulting tie-break to take it 7-5.

That setback resulted in Diyas falling away in the second, and Halep was able to break a further three times to move through to a clash with Naomi Osaka.
