A three-setter is our prediction as Magda Linette and Anastasia Zakharova face off for the second time in under three weeks. These two are meeting in the Chennai Open semi-finals.
The winner here will proceed to face Janice Tjen or Robin Montgomery. Linette is a former finalist here and holds a 7-1 record at Chennai following her 2022 defeat to Linda Fruhvirtova.
She advanced to her second semi-final in Chennai through a three-set win over Mai Hontama at the quarters. Earlier in Guangzhou, Linette beat Zakharova in straight sets and will be targeting the same here.
Having dropped sets in two of her three matches here, Linette knows this will be a tougher rematch.
Zakharova will arrive for this encounter ready to push more after her best effort in the Guangzhou first round fell short. The Russian has yet to drop a set in Chennai and had an easy passage to the semis.
Her opponent in the last round, Lucrezia Stefanini, retired in the second set. The 24-year-old is set to play her first semi-final of the season and will be burning for revenge as much as she looks to go all the way for a first tour title.
Mixing up ITF and tour events, Zakharova has compiled a 39-33 record and comes here sitting 100th in the live ranking.
