The duo converted three breaks, including one in the final game.

Dabrowski and Stefani will next face the winner of a match between the team of Czechia’s Anastasia Detiuc and Russia’s Irina Khromacheva and the tandem of Norway’s Ulrikke Eikeri and Quinn Gleason of the United States.

Dabrowski and Stefani defeated Eikeri and Gleason in the final of the Strasbourg International earlier this month.
