The 30year old Romanian has advanced to her third Wimbledon semi-final with an impressive ( 6-2 6-4 ) victory over America’s Amanda Anisimova on Wednesday. Since her victory, she has been all over the place.
After missing last year’s Championships due to a serious injury, Simona Halep, like Novak Djokovic, is on a Wimbledon hot streak of her own, with the 2019 champion winning 12 consecutive matches on SW19’s grass.
The No. 16 seed is said to be also the only grand slam winner still in the women’s draw, and she faces Elena Rybakina on Thursday for a spot in Saturday’s final. This match is going to be intense and can’t be missed for anything.
(It feels great to be back in the semi-finals), Halep said later after a post-match press conference.
(I’m very emotional right now; it means a lot to me. I had a tough opponent today who could crush the ball, and I had no idea what to do. But I had faith in myself, and I had to stay strong on my legs – they came in handy today), She added.
