Qatar Total Open: Cibulkova First to Semis with 400th Win
Doha - ArabToday
World No. five Dominika Cibulkova was the first to reach the semi-final of Qatar Total Open, defeating Sam Stosur 7-5 6-4 .
Stosur is no lightweight, the Australian was previously ranked fourth in women's tennis. Cibulkova had lost all their previous encounters in straight sets. The win will be memorable for Slovakia's Cibulkova also because it is the 400th win in her career. Up next for Cibulkova will be the winner of the last quarterfinal of the night: Zhang Shuai or No.2 seed Karolina Pliskova.
The tournament's organizing committee decided to delay all other quarter-final matches to Friday due to the rainy conditions. One of the games, Daria Kasatkina vs Monica Puig, was stopped due to the rain in the third set. Each one had won a set, while Puig was ahead 2-1 in the deciding set. Caroline Wozniacki will also resume her match against Lauren Davis, the former no. 1 was leading 1-0 in the first set.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
