Radwańska, who won the tournament in 2011, has high hopes of regaining the title this year.

“I'm happy to play another great match here and be in another quarter-final in Tokyo, Radwanska said after the clash.

“Elina's one of the best young players on tour at the moment,” she added.

“I think we both have a similar style so sometimes it felt like I was playing myself.”

The Kraków-born player, who is currently ranked No. 13 in the world by WTA, will now face Czech challenger Karolina Pliskova (WTA No. 11), in what looks set to be a tough match.

This year's tournament ends on Sunday 27 September. (nh/rk)
