NEW YORK – Ottawa’s Gabriela Dabrowski and New Zealand’s Erin Routliffe are off to the third round of the U.S. Open.

The third-seeded duo defeated Quinn Gleason of the United States and Ingrid Martins of Brazil 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2 on Sunday in women’s doubles action.

After a back-and-forth first set, Dabrowski and Routliffe jumped out to a 4-2 edge in the second, before eventually pulling away as Gleason and Martins kept cutting two-game deficits to one.
