Can the qualifier Xinyu Wang reach the Berlin Open final? The semi-final of this grass court tournament sees her take on unseeded Liudmila Samsonova. Here’s our match prediction.
The winner of this match will face either top seed Aryna Sabalenka or unseeded Marketa Vondrousova in Sunday’s final.
The Chinese player had a difficult time qualifying for this main draw. Three sets were needed in both of her qualifiers. It’s been considerably smoother since then, however.
After beating Daria Kasatkina, Wang beat the second seed Coco Gauff in straight sets. In Friday’s quarter-final. The first set was won against Paula Badosa who then retired injured.
A win will take her into a first ever grass court final. Both of her previous matches against Samsonova have been lost. This is their first match on a grass court.
Liudmila Samsonova has been in impressive form this week. Round one saw her come from a set down to defeat Naomi Osaka. Then the Russian caused a shock when beating third-seeded Jessica Pegula, again needing three sets.
It was a much faster win in the quarter-finals as Samsonova beat Amanda Anisimova for the loss of just two games. The has won two grass court titles, most recently winning last year’s Libema Open.
We tip Samsonova to win this match.
