Surprisingly, Bencic took out Sabalenka who has had a dream like 2018 and a good start to 2019. Bencic is very unpredictable when it comes to figuring out what form she's in. Halep plays Bencic in the next round and I'd say that along with Pliskova vs the casual trick shot specialist Hsieh.S, who's probably taken over after the retirement of Radwanska, in the trick shot department.

[Kemarit]

Ok, so this is the quarter final setup:

Halep vs Bencic
Kvitová vs Kužmová
Hsieh vs Plíšková
Suárez Navarro vs Svitolina

The match is hard to predict because this ladies is like evenly match at this point. I'd say that Halep, Kvitová and then Hsieh and Svitolina will move on the semis. How about you guys?

Hsieh already got the ticket to the Semi. Now for the rest here is my try although I have no much knowledge about some of them:

Kvitova
Halep
Svitolina

And seems like we both have the same prediction. Let's see.

Kuzmova Vs Kvitova is about to start.

Ok so Hsieh got the win already, so continue his giant killing spree. Down 1-5 in the third set and eventually won 6-4, 1-6, 7-5.

Kvitova also won on the other side of the bracket, 6-4, 6-0 setting up match between the two.

So let's see how the other side on the bracket tomorrow. I still think that Halep will overcome Bencic in 3 sets.

Kuzmova tried hard in the first set but could not save it. Eventually Kvitova won and headed to the Semi. Now we have Halep and Svitolina left. Halep/Bencic will be starting in less than 45 mins. I hope Halep makes a clear win.

I watch some hi-lights of this Hsieh and I find it funny how she just throw those back spin and drop shots. So it's very awkward, she is just standing there and the next thing you're going to see is those unexpected shots and her opponent can't do anything about it.

Simona Halep already won the first set, 6-4 and currently leading the second set as well.

I am pretty sure Halep is going to win the 2nd set too. It's 4 - 4 for Halep and she is serving now. Bencic is doing her fight though. If Halep will win then we have left Svitolina to win for the semi.

There goes Halep losing again after winning the first set. How is this even happening so many times? Everytime she goes up a set and a break, she somehow manages to lose from there. Something is wrong mentally.

Too bad that Halep lost. It was a bad show for her.

Anyway we got our forth semi finalist too. Svitolina won the match. This means

Hsieh
Kvitova
Bencic
Svitolina

are the four semi finalist.

Bencic vs Svitolina and Hsieh vs Kvitova. I think Kvitova and Svitolina is going to see each others in the final. Bencic may have a chance too.

It seems that she has lost her way badly since late last year, even in the match against Serena Williams in the AO she fought back from being one set down and having all the momentum but lost it in the third set so she needs to get that winning mentality back again asap or it could be a tough year for her. Its a shame to see as she is a great player with a lot of fight but then fades away when she is in front.

I notice with WTA tennis the matches are quite inconsistent because with Halep losing she is ranked very high on the world of tennis but loses to a relatively unknown player.
I know this happens in the ATP too but not as much as in the womens matches.
I rarely bet on womens tennis for this fact.

Quite inconsistent isn't suitable for WTA tennis lol. Even coin toss can be better predicted than women's tennis match , well that is because the stamina required is a bit less compared to mens and that puts them on equal terms to win if they play their shots right.

WTF? What happen to our Halep @Royse777? We could have perfectly predicted the QF outcome except for her lost. . She was up the first set and then suddenly choke? What's up with that? Anyhow, it going to interesting, I wanted to see Hsieh continue his giant killing spree but I wouldn't be surprised if Kvitova will end her run. Bencic vs Svitolina is also very intriguing. I will go with Bencic here, maybe she still has the momentum of that huge Halep upset against Svitolina.

Yh I think Halep messed up or it was a 100% correct result LOL. Bencic came back and won the match.

Honestly speaking one mind is picking Bencic  and another mind is pushing me saying that Svitolina will win the game. I give Svitolina advantage because of her consistency. Whatever the result will be, we will see a good fight in betwee Svitolina/Bencic

I read reports saying the she really grew tired in the second sets and that she is getting cramps and then his achilles started to flare up that's why she can't get a good serve. Make sense since this is a very fast court. Anyways, not taking anything from Bencic, she really did play well in that match, that's why its really hard to pick which one is going to win in the semis.

There are nothing to take away from Bencic. She really played very well. She held the nerve even after losing the set. Came back strong and eventually won the match. Who knows may be she can do the same in the Semi too.

Today is a big day for her.

Kvitova put a stop to the giant run of Hsieh, winning in three sets, 3-6, 6 -2, 6-4. She adjusted on the second set and didn't give Hsieh any breathing room. She even denied Hsieh four break chances in the second, ensuring her place in the finals. Bencic took the first set 6-2, but Svitolina is leading the second 4-2 with Bencic serving.

Royse777 above your post said she won the match which she did against a higher world ranked svitolina.
I dont know how people can predict who would win with these type of players which is very inconsistent compared to the ATP.

Wow what a match between Bencic and Svitolina. Bencic in the brink of defeat, however she muster enough strength to defeat the defending champion Svitolina. Elina come back strong in the second set and takes it 3-6, and it was a tough 3rd set that went into a tie break. So it will be Bencic vs Kvitova for the finals.

WOW! So, Bencic indeed made it! My half mind was saying that she will make it. Now I am really in trouble to pick one for the final. If this was not Bencic then I would easily say that in the final Kvitova was going to win but now I think both have good chance. I will even keep Bencic ahead because of her giant killing ability.
