Fourth seed Peyton Stearns has drawn Kimberley Birrell in the semi-finals at the ATX Open, and the two will be facing off on Saturday. This will mark the second meeting between them, and winning here sets up a title clash with either Ashlyn Krueger or Taylor Townsend. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Stearns will be aiming to go 2-0 up against Birrel, having beaten her Australian opponent in Madrid last year. She is coming from a three-set victory against the unseeded Oksana Selekhmeteva in the quarters.
This is already an improvement on her debut here three seasons ago when she reached the quarters. Her sixth win in 10 outings has nudged her three places up to 57th in the live rank.
Birrell is having a great season and will be looking to use the momentum to avenge the loss to Stearns in their previous meeting. In straight sets, she overcame Ajla Tomljanovic in the quarter-finals and will be charged up for this one.
In Austin this week, she has only dropped one set, and her latest win improves her season’s record to 10-5. This will be her second semi-final of the season after reaching the last four in Adelaide and also marks her best showing at Austin.
Last year, on her debut, she reached the second round. Birrell is currently 70th in the live rank.

Our Peyton Stearns vs Kimberly Birrell Prediction
Our prediction for Peyton Stearns v Kimberly Birrell is that Kimberly Birrell wins. Stearns hasn’t had a consistent run so far this season, and her first semi-final of the year could be another tough outing.
The American has spent almost an hour more on the court compared to Birrell, and fatigue will be another challenge she has to cope with. Birrell will be motivated to go for revenge, having lost to Stearns on clay last season. While her opponent has lost six of 14 matches, she arrives for the semis on a 10-5 record and with more rest this week.
