6: 7 (7: 9), 7: 6 (7: 5), 6: 4 – Belinda Bencic also wins the third game against 20-year-old Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk. The game lasts three hours and 27 minutes. The 25-year-old from eastern Switzerland is in the eighth finals of the tournament she won in 2019.
Bencic knows how to convince Kostjuk, but playfully she has a lot to thank. For a long time, the number 55 in the world has been threatened with the first defeat of the season against an outsider. After an hour and a half, Bencic is 6-7, 1-3 behind.
It is Bencic’s first appearance after last week’s defeat in Doha. After the victorious battle of attrition against Belarusian Viktoria Asarenka, she was exhausted and gave up the quarter-finals against eventual tournament winner Iga Swiatek from Poland. (SDA/yap)
