Aryna Sabalenka makes her way to her third semi-final of the season in the search for her first title. After ending last season on a high, Aryna struggled during the start but is now slowly returning to her best. On the back of consecutive straight-set wins followed by a 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(5) win over Alison Van Uytvanck in the quarter-finals, Aryna inches closer to her second final of the season.

Shelby Rogers reaches her first semi-final of the season after defeating Kirsten Flipkens 3-6, 6-1, 6-4. Rogers also won her first two matches in straight-sets before dropping a set for the first time in quarter-finals, similar to Aryna. Rogers has been in poorer form than Aryna and her three wins this week have finally balanced her win-loss ratio as she had picked up heavy defeats earlier in the season.

Rogers will come into the tie with a career grasscourt record of 17-16 and is 3-0 on the surface this season while having a season record of 11-11 across all surfaces. Sabalenka will take the court with a career grasscourt record of 26-14 and is 3-0 on the surface this season while having a 18-12 season record so far.

Looking at these numbers and considering their form in the 2022 season, Sabalenka looks better suited to head into the finals. But Shelby would have surely gained confidence from her wins this season and could put up a great challenge but the Belarusian should be able to see of the American.

Prediction: Aryna Sabalenka to win in straight sets.
