Belinda Bencic vs Ekaterina Alexandrova: Preview
Belinda Bencic dispatched number 2 seed Paula Badosa (2-6,7-6,6-4) after losing the first set of the quarter-finals. It was a hard-fought victory for the Swiss star to move forward. She will now face Ekaterina Alexandrova, currently ranked 25 on the WTA list in the semifinals of the Charleston Open. Alexandrova knocked out Magda Linette in straight sets to enter the semifinals.
Bencic bowed out to Naomi Osaka in the semifinals of the Miami Open. But she defeated both Madison keys and Paula Badosa on her way to the semifinals, so she will be looking to move past Alexandrova to enter the finals to try and win her 6th singles title. After two disappointing Miami and Indian Wells tournaments, Alexandrova is playing very well, defeating Zheng and Pliskova, among others in her journey to the semifinals. She would love to capitalize on her form to grab a chance to play for her 2nd singles title.

The players are also quite close in ranking with Belinda being ranked 22nd to Ekaterina’s 25.
Belinda Bencic vs Ekaterina Alexandrova: Prediction
With the kind of performance, Bencic put up against Badosa, she is the favorite against Alexandrova. She will also be motivated to make the claycourt record 1-1 and a place in the final is great too. But, It shouldn’t be forgotten that Alexandrova defeated No. 3 seed Karolina Pliskova on her way to the semifinals.
Prediction: Bencic to win in three sets.
