Second seed Ekaterina Alexandrova takes on the wildcard Hailey Baptiste in the semi-finals of the 2026 Abu Dhabi Open. The winner of what is their second career meeting will play Sara Bejlek or Clara Tauson in the final. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Baptiste is competing in her maiden semi-final at tour level. She has fought against the odds to make it this far and will feel this is the week she becomes a tour champion.
The American, who has won all three of her matches in Abu Dhabi via a decider, has defeated two top-seeded players. Baptiste, who is now up to 38th in the live ranking, defeated fourth seed Emma Navarro in the second round and then fifth seed Liudmila Samsonova in the quarters.
Ekaterina Alexandrova had a dominant display in her first matchup with Baptiste. This was last October as they dueled in Wuhan.
Alexandrova, who has moved back to 10th in the live ranking, allowed Baptiste just two games in that contest. She will be hoping for another dominant showing as she seeks to progress to her 13th tour final.
The Russian is offsetting a poor start to the season and has won two matches this week without a set lost. She defeated Alexandra Eala by the loss of six games in the quarters to improve to 3-3.
