WTA: Simona Halep with the next chance for revenge

Simona Halep is the first semi-finalist at the WTA tournament in Beijing: The Romanian did not let Daria Kasatkina from Russia stand a chance.

It only lasted 69 minutes, the revenge that Simona Halep gave to Russian Daria Kasatkina – after the 6-2,6-1 win, the Romanian is the first female player in the semi-final of the WTA Premier Mandatory event in Beijing.With exactly the same result, the two had parted a little more than a week ago – but Kasatkina had won in Wuhan.

For Halep, the move into the final round in Beijing is a premiere, and the summer and early autumn are not particularly sparkling for the current number two in the world, even though a move to the final in Cincinnati is worthy of all honours.Not so much a 1-6,0-6 defeat to Garbine Muguruza right there.

The vain attacks on the top position in women’s tennis in the first-round defeat against Maria Sharapova at the US Open are culminating.But Halep has also taken revenge on the Chinese capital Halep, for the first time after seven defeats.

In the semi-finals in Beijing, the next chance for revenge could come up – if Jelena Ostapenko wins her match against Sorana Cirstea.Halep missed her first victory at a Grand Slam tournament in Paris against the Latvian player.
