- In the men's singles semifinals, Shang Juncheng was out
Shang Juncheng's opponent in the quarterfinals was top seed Fritz. Fritz is ranked 13th in the world and is a first-class master, and there is still a certain gap in the strength of the two sides. In today's match, Shang Juncheng played very well, and played to the top seed in a tie-break in both sets. In the tie-break, Shang Juncheng lost 5-7 and missed the semi-finals 0-2, which is a pity. It's very good to be able to play this situation with the top seed.
In the other three games, Kecmanovic lost 0-2 to qualifier Purcell and missed the semi-finals. Vukic and Xigang Liangren fought in 3 sets and narrowly won 2-1. Wildcard player Harris beat Koboli 2-1 to advance to the semi-finals.
In the semi-finals, Fritz vs Vukic and Purcell vs Harris. The three dark horses face off against the top seed, and it is worth looking forward to whether Fritz can win the championship.
- Women's singles semifinals, Grand Slam champions out
Grand Slam champion Raducanu is back strong, beating world No. 5 Pegula 2-1 in the second round, and there is a lot of anticipation for her. However, in the third round, Raducanu disappointed again. Raducanu lost 2-6 to Russia's Kasatt this year and missed out on the semi-finals.
In the other three matches, Fernandez was strong, dropping only three games to easily beat Dart to advance. Paulini, the runner-up at this year's French Open, defeated Usain Bolt 2-0 to advance. Keys received Mukhova's retirement gift and advanced to the semi-finals without a fight.
In the semi-finals, Fernandez vs Keys and Paulini vs Kasatkina. Both of these games are evenly matched, and England will be very exciting.
