Simona Halep is heading to the National Bank Open semifinal after beating Coco Gauff Friday afternoon.
“But I’m a better person. I’m a better player. So this helps me and gives me confidence to work hard.”
Halep and Pegula have never played each other before. During her post-match news conference Halep glanced at a nearby television where Pegula was playing for match point against Putintseva. Dabrowski and Olmos will play American Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Australia’s Ellen Perez in the semifinal. Halep is now 4-0 in singles matches against Gauff on the WTA Tour. She said that the 18-year-old American is becoming increasingly dangerous as an opponent.
