Ashley Barty in the 1/2 Finals in Adelaide

 

 

 

The leader in tennis world ranking Alshi Barty (Australia) is qualifying for the semifinals of the first edition of the $ 848,000 Hard Home Courses in Adelaide.

Roland Garros champion Barty overtakes eighth in Market Vondroshova (Czech Republic) 6: 3, 6: 3.

The Australian took a 4-1 lead on the road to success in the first set, and in the second part squandered an early breakthrough advance, but then took four straight games to triumph.

For the final, she will play against Daniel Collins (USA), who has taken 10 of her last 11 games in defeating No. 4 Belinda Bencic (Switzerland) 6-3, 6-1.

Sixth in the scheme Arina Sabalenka (Belarus) coped with No. 2 Simona Halep (Romania) 6: 4, 6: 2.

Halep, the winner of Wimbledon last season, started the game with a breakthrough, but after 4: 4 her opponent took seven straight games, which proved decisive. In the semifinals, Sabalenka will meet Ukrainian teenager Diana Yastremska.

19-year-old Jastremska placed 7 aces and won against Croatia's Donna Vekic 6: 4, 6: 3 in just over an hour. / BTA
