Linette, aged 25, who is 74th in the WTA ranking, now takes on the Czech Republic’s Karolina Pliskova, who fell from no. 1 to no. 4 in the ranking earlier this month.
Linette was recently trounced by Pliskova 2:6, 1:6 in the first round of the US Open.
The Polish player last year reached the quarterfinals of the Tokyo tournament.
