Sabalenka Escapes Against Bartunkova in Berlin
Aryna Sabalenka survived a major scare against Nikola Bartunkova to reach the semifinals in Berlin, 2-6, 7-6, 6-4. She trailed by a set and 0-4 at one stage before producing an incredible comeback to keep her title hopes alive.
This is her second consecutive semifinal appearance in Berlin. Last year, she also survived a tough three-set quarterfinal against Elena Rybakina before falling to eventual champion Marketa Vondrousova in the semifinals. She now has an opportunity to achieve her best result at the tournament.
The Belarusian will be relieved with this victory considering her recent tournaments have ended at or before the quarterfinal stage. Since the start of the clay swing, she has been unable to produce the deep runs that defined the early part of her season.
Sabalenka is now bidding to reach her first grass-court final since 2022. She enters this semifinal with a 2-4 career record at this stage on grass and is currently on a three-match losing streak in grass-court semifinals.

Pegula Returns to Berlin Semifinals
Jessica Pegula knocked out compatriot Madison Keys in straight sets to reach the semifinals in Berlin, 7-6, 7-6. She initially trailed 1-4 in the opening set before producing a strong comeback and eventually closing out the match in two tight tiebreak sets.
This is Pegula's second semifinal appearance in Berlin. Two years ago, she defeated Coco Gauff in straight sets at this stage before overcoming Anna Kalinskaya in the final to lift the title, her first tour-level grass-court trophy. She now has the opportunity to repeat that success this week.
The American has enjoyed another excellent season. Apart from a couple of early exits during the clay swing, she has reached at least the quarterfinals in nearly every tournament she has entered, including four semifinal-or-better finishes.
Pegula owns a 23-17 career record in tour-level semifinals. On grass, she is a perfect 2-0 at this stage and converted both of those runs into titles, highlighting her ability to make the most of opportunities on the surface.
